what i m trying to say is that light weight rim really isn't necessary
and i don't understand why, especially some indo's is very typical, they buy genuine light wheels on wrong car, and wrong purpose (just to make it look fast), but thats my opinion
true, indos with money.. but what can you do. if they got the money, why not spend it?
i mean the weight of the replica is double compare to the original ce28n.. lol..
and whats the point take the fd compare with ur commodore v6? lol..
same meaning with this.. "that commodore v6 looks fast, do you think that car beat Ferrari?" no point to compare..
and indo have alot of money that we don't have.. they can even use ASANTI wheels with rubies or diamond on their car.. lol..
all i m saying if u drive that car on the street cant even keep up at all with commodore v6, thats w**ker
also just imagine, if fd2R drive past this car and park next to it
so its not about money or not,, its soooo ricer,,
wayne,, whats the point talking about how much weight rims you need for fd like this
double weight rims or not, replica or not, who cares? that black fD car looks replica as well
tried to replica fast car,,,
hmmm they shouldnt call it "CE28N replica" on the first place... should just give them the taiwannesse brand instead... Like Lenso or other cheap rims sold here in oz was replicating big brands, but they never call it "XXX replica" or sumthing...
i see.. u have the point.. would you mine share what wheels u using? =)
so u r benchmarking civic with commodore v6? lol.. thats cool man.. =)
i mean replica wheels is half cheaper than the original and the weight is double.. as i carry a 19" ce28n before at my friend's house.. it was so light.. =)
haha.. i dont think the car look rice.. as far as i know he spend all his money on original stuff.. his mugen kits is original.. maybe someone who know him can clear this statement.. =)
wayne, just open urbandictionary, check the word "ricer " mean
A person who makes unecessary modifications to their most often import car (hence the term "rice") to make it (mostly make it look) faster. The most common modifications are (but not limited to):
- Huge exhaust that serves no purpose but to make the car louder
- Large spoiler on the back that looks like something Boeing made for the 747
- Lots of after-market company stickers they don't have parts from, but must be cool
- Expensive rims that usually cost more than the car itself
- Bodykit to make the car appear lower, usually accented with chicken wire
- Clear tail lights and corner signals
- A "performace intake"- a tube that feeds cold air to their engine usually located in areas of excessive heat (behind or on top of the engine)
- Most of these riced cars (a.k.a. rice rockets or rice burners) are imports; Honda Civics, Accords, Integras, CRXs, RSXs, Del Sols Mitsubishi Eclipses, Lancers, Subaru Imprezas, however there are some domestics such as Chevrolet Caviliers, Dodge Neons, Ford Focus; small, slow, economy cars designed specifically to go slow. Please note that some Supras, Skylines, WRX's and other higher performance imports are designed to go fast, and are therfore not always considered rice. It really depends on the severity of the case.
The "ricer" attempts to make their car "performance" by adding the modifications listed above. These ricers are not confined to any one ethnic group or color, however different ethnic groups are known for certain styles.
Honda Civics with big spoilers and 4" exhaust tips are considered to be ricers.
would that mean changing ur exhaust system is considered ricer?
id say...gettin a chop on muffler with a huge cannon is rice.. but a proper exhaust system like say...maybe a catback with wateva tip..even cannon? i wudnt call that rice...
fair enough, guess it just comes down to the individual.
