I stopped lurkin that board a while ago and figure I drop in to see what  
the dilly-o is.

So I go to this thread…

[http://www.ziptied.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3060&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0](http://www.ziptied.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3060&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0)

I mean :wtf:

Those wheels are ugly as sin. Fuckin bandwagoners who start givin’  
props cuz they are expensive Work wheels and want to fit in on the  
Ziptied click or some crazy shit. :rolleyes:

I see bing trying to make a statement and he gets flamed. Good ol’  
bing. :mamoru:

It’s not just about the lip or the 3-piece setup or whatever. They just look  
ugly as sin.

Edit: Ok, saw the pics on a skyline and they look decent cuz they aren’t  
ugly ass white…

But still…not my bread and butter…

So relax before you stereotype…

Why spend that kind of coin on rims when your car is all beaten. I mean I understand the guy classifies his S13 as a drift only car, but spending that kinda of money when you car looks like hell is stupid. You want people to believe that the rims aren’t copies but you pull a ricer move by putting “nice rims” on a shit box (please don’t flame for me calling a 240 a shit box). My car looks like hell right now and I have ricer vinyl on the side but thats only because I thought that pulling the plastic side molding off of my car before I had the cash for a paint job was a good idea. Leading to a brownish-pink strip. My cash is going towards getting it up to par before useless expenditures. Sorry just my .02

yah those rims dont look bad on the right car. even white can be ok. But i do agree, putting rims like that on a shit boxed 240 is kinda stupid. Doesn’t mark have those rims? hehe

Those rims are wicked when they are the right offset, they have such a sweet spoke curve and IMO look great on both coupes and fastbacks.

For your convenence I’ll post the pics of these wheels:

Now bing, stop getting yourself into sensless arguments and pissing matches. These wheels are way nice than yours first off, secondly you’ll get burned again and will stop going to ziptied just like you do on Neo because you’re too proud of a person. So what’s the point of arguing?

uh-ohhh pavel…

lol

lets not go there, Zip-Tied never lied right to my face and they dont owe me money that they assured me they would pay back

you are forgetting what NEO is, it is not a 240sx club.

my wheels also happen to be lighter, MUCH CHEAPER, MUCH RARER, equally as strong if not more so, more versatile due to multi-piece design, and have the requisite polished lip that is needed to be cool… right?

for my purpose they are far superior to those wheels in every way.

i have spent less on tires in 2 years after maybe 10 sets than he did the first time he put them on.
