why is that? 99% of rims that are for sale, that are applicable to s-chassis, ae’s, rx7…etc are weak sucky shit. Why would anyone want to buy some 17x7 + 99 pizza cutters…and use spacers to make them not even flush? If you go on most of the boards out side Ontario…USA, other provinces, UK, Europe etc… There is usuall alot of dope shit. I know the cost comparison is like 400 a set opposed to 1400+. But still… I’m not trying to bad mouth anybody…has anybody else noticed. I’ve seen the light and got rid of my old weak sauce…I’m just reallllly bored
…Just buy new and get the fitment you want.
You get what you pay for
lol, save up and buy new.
lol man i notice this allllllll the time i will see "fs: 17x (and i think cmon be something nicceeeee caaaamonnnnnn) but its always gay like 8 +45 like wtf haha
Mainly because there is no resale market for nice rims. The majority of ontario doesn’t want to pay $1500+ for rims, because no one cares. I can think of… 5 people off this forum with good rims. Thats it.
Those that want them, get them… one way or another. Most people just don’t car enough.
ill buy some nicer wheels when im done the rest of the shit i need to do.
its true though
99% of the cars out there have rims that look like complete and utter shit.
the other 1% all have MB battles
What do you call nice rims? =/
proper fitting Volk, Rays, WORK, SSR, CCW, Enkei, BBS, Regamaster etc. etc.
Battles are good sizes but… you know 
If I see another car with battles, I may shit my pants and eat my shorts right there and then.
HAHHAHA, it’s so true. honestly, if MB would design more wheels apart from Battles, Weapons or whatever they currently have and would bring more out wit the same sizes and PRICE point, they would own the market.
Battles are fine and look pretty cool but they’re almost common on S Chassis in Canada that they could be mistaken for OEM wheels.

It all comes down to PRICE dude. MOST 240 guys that are interested in modding and performance or “drifting” would love to have nice fitting wheels…but a lot of people don’t have the coin to drop on 1K plus USED wheels, let alone 2K or MORE for new wheels that fit well.
It’s weird though, they’ll drop 3K on a motor swap, 1K on coils, .5K on brakes and misc but when it comes to wheels, they’ll spend 400 MAX!! hahahah. Though, wheels are essential to the car. They MAKE the car. We’d all love a selection of nice fitting wheels but man, that shit gets expensive. Like Mark said, if you want them bad enough, you’ll get em and find a way to pay for em. hahhaha.
It’s funny how you could have a complete piece of shit beat to hell S13/S14/FC/AE/FD/BMW/Whatever is mad tyte drift cool yo, and throw some GOOD fitting wheels on it and have it setup with a mean ass stance and all of a sudden, your car “looks good.” and all of a sudden it’s a head turner. You take the same car and throw some tear drops on it or some steelies on it and it’s seen for what it is…a PIECE OF SHIT. hahahah.
Same applies to a very nice car with perfect paint, kit, motor, everything but it doesn’t have wheels that FIT, no one looks twice. hhahahah.

mmmmm wheels…
would love a set of these for some track wheels for the FC.
would KILL to have these as street wheels on the FC.
Case in point.
The FC in the front there is pretty BEAT TO HELL and i believe is a stock 13B NA gutless lump motorwise…but give it a stance and some wheels and a kit…all of a sudden, it’s a fanboy’s WETDREAM, no matter what it has. I know people who admit that shit. They don’t give a fuck about motor, rust or anything, they care about LOW and WHEEL FITMENT. now the FC in back…ugh jizzinmyfacehotshit.
See…
BEAT TO SHIT. Paint is faded and flaking and dented, kit is busted up, motor is weaksauce…take the kit off and put the stock wheels back on and would you look twice?
And this…this thing even has a cool TII hood on it but who gives a shit. same car, just no drop and no wheels and no kit.
This is even beat to shit and looks ten times better than that stock car. just cuz it has better wheels (not great) and a it’s lowered significantly.
Yah, so proper fitting can be Sportmax, Rota, etc.
I dont see why people just dont buy a new set of Rota’s lol. Super cheap, fits nicely 
also
a huge thing to point out is that the 90% out of the 99% dont even have suspension
so its just a raised car sitting on after market wheels
i know neons are the wackest shit since aids but still
rota fail
want me to post the volk fail pictures?
because all wheels can fail dude

and a big reason a lot of people dont have baller wheels is because this is canada and our regulations on importing is retarded…
IN USA brand new rims that cost $400, end up costing $600-700 here
its stupid.
lol. pm me what you’re looking for…size + what you’re willing to spend…
^ This… but its more like $400 rims end up costing $1000, $1000 rims end up costing $2000 etc etc.
Ever ask a USA vendor for shipping quotes?
Some USA vendors will offer FREE shipping or dirt cheap shipping costs within the USA however get a quote to Canada and its time to bend over! 300-400+ to ship then it hits the border and you get taxed, then you bend over some more for duty and brokerage fees.
Rims are coooooooool.
Most of the people on here struggle to keep their car in good running condition, rims are just another thing we dream of. lol
