what do you think about gettin these rims?

MeYa11 · 07-24-2006, 06:15 AM

It really depends on the year of car its going to get put on, If its a 1993-1998 I think they'd look very good. But if its the older style I don't know about that. It also depends on if you have any body kits like bumpers or anything. Myself, I think rims like that look nice with a bumper kit and Side Skirts

i have an 87 supra so alread its not your favorite flavor, but my main question was; will those rims still let my supra handle well and not affect my driving in any negative ways?
i have no body kits.

currently i have stock rims, my main stress is that the new rims will fit great and wont be to heavy or anything negative towards my ride.

Well, Honestly I don't think they would really affect your driving in any way unless they are bigger and wider then your current rims, and if you do get low-profile tires that might make a little bit of difference but i don't really think it will hurt you. But hey what do i know im only 15 =\ Only way it would help or hurt is if the rim is bigger/smaller or wider/narrower.

I didnt read the whole weight thing, but to that i don't think they will be any heavier. If your using stock rims at the moment those are much likly heavier then those, considering they have much more metal in them. So I would think that the new rims would be lighter and faster...

that sounds good but that website doesnt give any specs about the rims, the measuments and stuff. unless i overlooked it. where could i get the specs for those rims?

Well, More then likly Primax has its own website, this website sells many different rims so it isnt going to display a ton of information for every rim, But this site has a little bit of information. It does say that they rims are 17 inches tall and 7 inches wide, which could hurt or help you depending on your stock rims. If the stock rims are the same size, they more then likly have more metal so they will weigh more, Racing rims like these ones typicaly weigh about 10-20 pounds less then stock rims, since they don't take make metal to make.

Hey uh.... those are for 4 lug style hubs. All Supras are 5 lug right? They probably don't make these for your car. Try www.wheeldiscount.com and www.wheelsnext.com Both of these sites list all of the sizes the rims come in and they are very reasonably priced.
