^…Well at least a few people agree with me…not about the grand am part :lol: … The truth is now that I see them on a 240 in the pics they don’t look that bad, but I still wouldn’t put them on my car, but like I said before we all have different taste and just because some of us might not like them it doesn’t mean others don’t, Im sure there are people that don’t like the rims on my car and there are others who love them. It all comes down to personal preference. ---

They look alost better in person IMO. They suit Pavel’s car just fine, They looked hot on Greg’s Sil-80, They look like ass on Greg’s RX7. :oops: (sorry Greg) So considering the they look goon on are dark in color, and the RX is white, I say they only look good on dark cars. This way the rims do not stand out that much. ---

17x7 +42 will fit best on an S14. You won’t need t spend money to roll your fenders, or worry about tickets from the police. With the 17x9 that some of us have we keep getting tickets because they rub everywhere even with stretched tires. Its really not worth it. I think I am going to sell my crappy ass hanabi’s. They are complete junk, and possibily the riciest rims anyone could buy. Lets be honest if you saw these on a honda you would make fun of the person for being a ricer. 'nuff said. ---

Just to state the obvious… People interested in these wheels know that there are more then 6 240’s running these wheels. The wheels come in 2 finishes, which means variation is a minimum. They come in 2 basic offsets and sizes for use on these cars that I’ve seen. 17x9 +20 17x7.5 +45 Point is, these are getting a little played out. There are plenty of other choices out there for you. You just have to find them… ---

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Alright so most people who drive RWD cars (with the exception of a few) are wispering in my ear that these are more or less Ricer wheels, except for mabey a few lucky dark cars already using the dark hanabi rims… So here’s the next question i will ask: I’ve read many opinion threads that ask or push the use of a RWD offset rim!!! SOOOOO i would like to know with the exception of Konig, what is a easily accessable RWD offset rim!!! I’m sooo lost… i wana cry :dunno: ---

Pavel was already going to do a GB and then we all threatened him with death. Go find some other wheel and quit biting TM styles… bitches. Don’t you get it? We don’t want EVERYONE to have these. They are going to be played out like fn01r-c are in the states. Find your own rims instead of copying us. DIAF!!!3djhfapenissuldtrset AW; ---
