Rims For My Euro

[Takenit2easy]

Got pulled over last night for breath test, license check and a full check of my accord and the only thing was the back tyres need replacing (note: i just changed them from the front a few weeks ago)

you know what that means.....new rims sooner rather then later

i was looking at the Verde Scorpions which i liked but the guy at the local mag shop said not too for a number of reason so i found these...

Not sure how much these are going to cost as i'm told they are custom made
they are Asanti AF 119 (see photo) what do you guys think??

I don't like racing wheels as my euro will never be a fire breather more of a luxury, pimping ride....

Anyone know how much they are before i speak to the guys at the shop...!

cheers

Too much chrome for my taste :p

[Spicey]

[Takenit2easy]

i was going for the chrome look but i think these are chrome with a bit of class...! IMO

Call me old fashioned LOL

nah just kidding

thanks for your opinion

[blueoval]

I love that wheel choice. Looks classy on a black euro. Should still look very good on a white one too.

chrome is alright depending on the style, but i prefer non chrome with VIP, as it adds more class

have you priced these wheels yet?

i think you might be in for a shock, i had a quote on Asanti rims for my last car..
was around 6k i think

I knew they weren't going to be cheap as on the site i was looking on it said made to order and coming from america...!
5 - 6k was about what i was thinking they might cost...!

did you end up getting Asanti rims on your last car??????

For Ashanti wheels they are a bit expensive because of forged materials, try not to use the chrome one, instead use the high polish finish, it looks similar to chrome but not as chrome (you'll know what i mean after you see the high polished finish) also not as heavy as chrome. Tempe tyres in sydney is one of the Asanti dealers in oz. My friend's friend bought 20" ashanti wheels + tyres from tempe around $6500, or you can try iForged for around $5000 for 19".

The rims in this car is forged rims with high polich finish, almost looks like chrome but not chrome.

Nah i didnt end up getting them, ending up selling the car so i wouldnt spend anymore money on it!

if your budgetting 5-6k you'll be fine, i believe there the same price for 19s as they are 20s.

5-6k from Tempe including Tyres, i think they take about 3 weeks or so to make.

Awesome wheels though :cool:

[Takenit2easy]

Those rims look shiny enough and i know what your saying about the weight...!

i would only get 19's but if 20's are going to be the same price or very close i will go the 20's for sure

thanks so much for the help and comments keep it coming..!

[Tobster]

The wheels might be the same price but the rubber will keep getting more expensive!

Chrome wheels on Euros.:thumbdwn:IMO.
Spend the money on suspension.

[sendok]

the wheels on the pic looks alright.. compare to other chromies.. but try to get somethin else if you could :D

[xiang]

Nice choice.. they look hot.

fair call

if i do go for a cheaper option like around 3K on mags and then have 3k on suspension????

[Pumped]

2-2.5k would be enough for suspension

Coilovers, Camber kits, installation :)

Rear sway bar ftw

[as001]

Ken style kit with chromies would be good

depends which chrome rims i guess....
not all chrome are sh!t. its just that theres too many crap examples of tempe tyre classics goin around.
but agreed. not many chrome rims suit the euro.
