Cool

seems like the majority likes the 7 spoke

how are the "knock offs" so inferior to the "real thing"? do the advantages of "the real thing" justify paying twice the cost?

knockoffs are inferior BC theyre not the real thing.. thats the whole point of it being a knockoff.

all i gotta say is.. you gotta pay the coss to be the boss, thats the whole point of the import game

But if you are putting on wheels to suit your tastes and your costs, and not wanting to show your car in any car shows, then whats the problem with what someone chooses? The average everyday person wouldnt know what they were looking at anyway, or what brand it is.. So paying over the top prices for something you can get at half the price seems smart to me? Who cares if you have one person out of 1000 that is a major car buff, and says, they are nockoffs.. Your happy with them, and the other 999 people just think they are cool looking wheels?

well i guess thats why your stripping your car down and selling it because you can't keep up in the "import game" and by the way you never had anything close to "import" just ugly rims that didn't fit, a labtop that didn't look cool. i guess when you get something new "please don't show it if you scared to get your feelings hurt ok....... it be all right...

p.s and your not snoop dog!!!!

lol you two guys argue so much, its kinda funny.

as long as the car looks decent, is fun to drive and fun to own, who cares if the rims cost $5 or $5000? it's all personal taste, really. ive seen plenty of $800 rim sets that look better than the super expensive $6000 sets.

I think it's really all personal choice. Me, personally... I was going to get ADR knockoff rims, but an extra $200 or so, I could get the real deal Racing Harts. So it's really all up to you.

the trophies youve won are from tiny "car shows" (if you can call them that) with almost no entries. ive won all of mine with some sort of competition.
