He wanted to trade someone his chrome doorpins for stock, so I said sure. Followed his instructions sent mine in with another pre-paid box never got them and he never returned any emails/PM's but that's another story and
But back to the subject I really like the way these look on a black C.

Very true. One of the first few things I learned here from you, Frank, and a couple of others.

I'm not sure I agree with you Mugen, but like I said, wheels are what you want them to be. If I had a few grand to spend on wheels I probably would. I drive my car every day so why not? Unfortunately, with my current financial situation there's a lot better things I can use a few thousand dollars for (like college) so I have to stick with things that are cost effective.

thanks for all the comments guys, I would totally buy either these rims or the ASA ST4's like C24Owner has but I'm turning the car into the dealership in 4 more months so I can't get any new mods for it.

Time to mod the BMW!! I got a full suspension on order....

ctC230K

Noob here, just starting to dress up my C200. Agree that whatever floats one's boat is one's prerogative. So far, most of the vehicles on this site are pretty cool ones so nobody seems to be headed the wrong direction.

i think a setup like that might be a tad over your price range. however- if you can get that deal- you are the man

ctC230K

well, if he doesn't find a job real soon hes gonna be so broke he won't be able to afford my used mods

ey bro those wheels are sick...i think they may be worth it!!!

nlpamg

they look ok, but 31lbs!!!! f-that! waaaaay too heavy! that's what replica's weigh.

for the price, there's no point--you're going to make an already slow car even slower...

Hello everybody, I am about to buy these rims and tires for my car, I would like to know what are your opinions about this and I am willing to accept any recomendation in this matter.

I think they will fit fine in my c230K 2002 (2door) I already have 17 in the car and I need to buy new tires around 500 mounted and I was think if I invest 500 humdred more why not to get bigger rims so whhat you think ... good idea right?

here it is the link..

Thank you guys

weight does make a difference, you wont know til you own a set of forged wheels and can pick them up with one hand with a tire mounted on it, with ease.

+1.

that offset is about right for an 8.5" wheel- not sure about a 8" wheel though. i think i would be cautious of a set of wheels and tires for $700 though. i'm not saying you need to spend $5k either- but there's a happy medium somewhere, and i'm not so sure that those wheels are it.

check the wheel thread- someone might have already tried those wheels or at least that size/offset.

Diego

anyone knows if this offset will fit in my car without problems.. I don't really know what is the offset, so I am kind of lost

mig888

buy these and redeem yourself?

ctC230K
