what's wrong wif 19"? If you have the moola.. you can get hold of a lightweight one and will still take on a stock!

I personally think those wheels look good.

Hell, I've seen worse on an S...MUCH worse.

As I recall, "Flite" has 19" HREs on his ride, and it is phucking CLEAN.

They don't look half bad actually. At least you didn't put 22" rims on it.

i will get some pics when the tires come in. they look amazing on the car!
You think it's cool to hate? What's this forum coming to? If everyone was hating on you they'd bring up how retarded it is to buy brand new 19" high dollar wheels and test fit them by jacking the car up with 2 jacks and not using jack stands. You'd be if one of those jacks dropped while you were taking pictures, and trust me, I've seen jacks fail.

IMO, everyone doesn't like the wheels because for that style rim (custom 3 piece) you really need to be able to run low offsets and give the wheel some lip. Having your widths and diameter you can't really do that. Not to mention the color of them is kinda bland. If you wanted some clean classic 5 spoke wheels I would have opted for Kinesis K59's.

I don't think they are a terrible wheel nor do I think they won't look good, just not great. They do look better than anything else I've seen you put on a car. Good luck with them and please post up mounted pictures!

Nice wheels, this forum has a bunch of JDM fanbois. You need 16" for race, 17" for show and 18" is pushing and 19" your retarded . I think people need to realize when people put on 17" wheels with crazy offsets that would hit every square inch of the fender that some will like it and some won't. But you know what to fit crazy offset 16" or 17" is MAD JDM . These wheels are sick and I have 19" as well and they do the job with my turbo set-up. BTW, soon you will get comments 19" is retarded how can you track with that? HAHAHA not everyone uses their show wheels for track. Done rambling, but this forum is going to crap! BTW, like everyone says SLAM the car till it runs the dynamics of the car as well, cause is JDM .

I like the wheels, but the size is to big for me. 18s for daily, 17/16s for race. Atleast you like them.
JDM YO!

Dude you should have gotten 14's or 15's much better for track
