Who cares? The rims all look the same and adhere to manufacturing standards..
Imo, if you spend more than 500 bucks per rim for something that looks the same as a copy that is cheaper (not nescessarily inferior)... either you're fkn dumb, have way too much money or both. But that's just my opinion.
kitbkk, show us some pics of ur car mate. ??
hey bro these were the cars i was talkin to u abt at work

Oh sorry man, i didnt want to be 'fkn dumb' when i ordered Work Wheels. So does that mean that the Euro owners on here that have genuine JDM wheels on here are 'fkn dumb' because they wanted quality light-weight wheels?
Also because they aren't as common as them rimz they call 'Every Commodore in Australia has these rims'. But nawwww, lets all go to Bob-Jane Tbag for some awesome 4DLULZ rimz brreewwww.
Phwoaaa, nice rimz there Kit, did you get them rims from liek Bob-Jane Tbag? leik FoReaLz?
I AM SPEECHLESS they have got to be the two best looking euros i have EVER seen omg!! hehe very very very!! nicee guysss

There we go ! geeez that was tough :P
All my car has atm is king springs, lowered 50mm front and 35mm back LOL its still so high!
DW when i get my coilovers its gonna get slammed and when i put my 20" wheels on tomorrow the guards should fill up quite nicely :)
hes showing u the before pic haha
If you read my original post... This is my opinion only.. I didn't decide to buy genuine rims, because, living in Sydney with the state of the roads here..
a) i can't afford genuine rims. in the first place.
b) even if i could, i don't want to run the risk of smashing a 1000 dollar rim in a pothole..
To me, i can't see the advantage of buying genuine when mine look almost identical and i'm happy with them.. sorry if MY OPINION offended you
again, this is my opinion only.. everyone is entitled to one, even me
pauly, wat rims r u going to get? upload it wen u do it cheers
well next time express "YOUR OPINION" in a more "NUETRAL" manner
instead of calling any1 who spends more than $500 a wheel fkn dumb
ive always thought any1 that buys fake wheels is ......................, but yeh, i dont say it
the point is, its not just about looks, its about the material used, the forging methods, the heat treatments all these things add up to make a superior wheel
u want to talk about sydenys shit roads causing damage to wheels, thats y u wouldnt buy genuine???
well, have u ever considered the possibility of wat will happen to fake wheels made of low quality material and prepared, fabricated and heat treated in the rong way when they go over a pot hole?
they could fall apart, a massive crack could go straight through them and shatter the whole wheel, who knows
but there is definetley less, MUCH less chance of this happening with a genuine jdm wheel, as they are much much higher quality....imo, the worst that can happen, is a minor dent that can be fixed
not only are they tougher and stronger, but they are also quite a bit lighter than the copy, making ur car feel less like a truck than it would with 15kgs a piece copys...
anyway, again, u dont have to listen to wat i say, i couldnt care less, ur giving ur opinion, and im giving and justifying mine
Nice reply Waz :)
Nawww, tis aight breww, sorry for being 'fkn dumb' and getting genuine rims, but dw like i said ima sell my Works when they come and get some rimz down at bob-jane tbag, then i can be like super cool smart. Got good deal today, $2000 for some 'Every Commodore in Australia has these rims' wheels and it comes with tyres, probably some ling longs ( like 10 bucks each ) and lock nuts......tis like win spec.
Should be sweet man, if im really lucky i can get some of this happening just driving to the newsagents.....LMFAO.

tis all 4DLULZzzzzzzz......LOLOLOLULULULULZzzzzzzz
wow so much love here aye argueing over rims!
its not that mate, sorry, we give u the wrong impression
usually, i dont bother replying, but yeh..
its a forum, so u have to expect this stuff to happen evry now and then
far out guys. play nice.
Once again its all about priorities and where you position your money and values. We just have to be careful not to offend or impose our values on other people.
BACK ON TOPIC!! :)
hehe i dont mind, its just funny, personally every1 is entitled to their own opinions,
Guys it doesnt look lowered because i was crouched on the ground when i took the photo, i guess it doesnt look lowered to you guys because your used to seing euros slammed on their asses and guards swallowing rims when someone mentions the term "lowered".
But yes it is still rather high, that is why i am going to purchase coilovers, so i can lower the car to my liking and also improve the cars handling, etc :)
Once the rims are fitted the gaps above the wheels should be filled seing how they are 20s :)
Well i know that guys LOL but even with 20s coilovers will be better than king springs.
And what im after is looks guys im not planing to go racing around a track with my car LOL.
And if your about to say "if your after looks why get coilovers?"
The answer is because i like having good quality things and i enjoy spending money on things that i enjoy and things that keep me happy :D
and if ya dont like it... boo hoo :)
reason for getting coilovers - getting adjustable ride height and dampening capabilities, more flexibility and function with coilies.
But some spring/shock combo has dampening changes but noot ride height.
But comparing your sacrificing comfort between the two.
Just my 2c.
if u want good coilovers make sure u get some that u can adjust lower but still have full suspension travel like k sport coilovers, its coilovers that u dont adjust by the spring perch which will make it stiff but the lowering mount so if u 4 inches low or standard its basically the same
yea im not buying generic ones bro, im going with some Teins :)
Hight adjustable and dampening adjustable.
