^^Those wheels are hot. I may have to pick up a set of those. I've learned that with wheels, you definitely get what you pay for. I'm done buying cheap wheels. I love the wheels I have now, but on the show circuit, you can't keep the same wheels for more than 2 seasons so after this year, I'm on the lookout for some new ones.

OZLANCER, how much time and money have you invested in your ride? looks like you get a pretty hefty pay check every week.
just out of curiosity, where are you guys finding the weight of the rims you buy? most of the sites i look at don't show the weight specs on their rims.

Why get cheap wheels?
I got the Falcon 77s (2 Piece!) with Hankooks. and they cost me 1400 all together.

Nothin wrong with inexpensive rims. expecially when u can buy "name brand" center caps on ebay
hummm.. i think i'll have sum 5Zigens' this spring I'd rather spend less on looks and more on power.

Chris, rims look great! I can't wait to see pic's of them on the car. 
did you ever get mad looking for rims when you found out the set you like only comes in 18's? ...and you can't find any knock-offs in 16's or 17's 
that's the reason i still have yet to buy wheels.
