Yeah, takes weeks to find out how much rims weigh from the manufacturer. Any rim I get has to be < 20 LBS [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/IMG]

I really like these, but still havn't decided.

Took me 2 months to buy my car [IMG]i/expressions/laugh2.gif[/IMG]

Damn, those rims are tight! I like the Machined lip!!! What color car are you thinking
about throwing those on? These rims are tight too, on that site...

I have a Silver Acura type S, I wonder if those fit? I talked to a guy at JayDM.com and he said they have the C-8's in gunmetal with a polished lip, like those royal black ones!

That's actually Tekniq's ride. I have a silver sedan too, so I used his side pic to see how it would look. I'll be getting these in a month or so.

Doh, just saw that you said it was someone elses ride with the rims you want on it. Hey, should consider getting chrome or bright silver mabye? Its all really a matter of preference but personally I think the rims are tight however... black rims dont do a whole lot when bringing out the beauty of the wheels. If your ride was silver, you'd be totally stylin with either a chrome or hyper silver or something just a little brighter than the paint on your car to give it a little more attention instead of consealing it cause it blended in with the tires =)

If you want ideas of what any type of rim will look like on any ride, see if you can find this japanese mag called AutoFashion. Its a giant mag all about rimz.

Remember thats all my opinion tho! What others think sucks others will think it should be on the next cover of Superstreet.
