Opinions Plez!

Well I have been looking for white rims that will not cost an arm and a leg. So far the only thing I can find were the Oz Racing which I was not
crazy about. Looking for 15 inch rims that I can use the stock Sport tires on, which is another problem.

So I kinda decided to just get some black rims for now because I just don't like the way the stock rims look. I know that black headlights with these would look great so we will see about that as a future mod but I think I am giving up on the white rims.

These are what I am looking at now please give me your opinions or experience with any of these.

Cat :x

IMHO I am not a fan of any of the 3 on a red car... why not white Rota slipstreams (or preferably the Desmonds, though they cost an arm and a leg)

I think without a ton of mods, a "classic" design would fare better than something that stands out too much

Honestly, I don't think black rims on any car doesn't look good. Say find a set thats all white, bronze, or just silver (no chrome). Like others above me said, try some rotas and go plain and simple.

(haha sol brothers, I agree with you too much XP)

If i haaad to choose one, i'd choose the middle

Enkei for sure.

Never been a fan of Konig whees and Drag wheels are just heavier rotas so your only getting heavy knock offs of the knock off. I can say that cause I rock rotas.

the top wheel: looks ugly
middle wheel: j-10s look ugly in small sizes like 15s. the ones in the pic are probably 17s or 18s. my buddy had some 17s on an rsx he painted white and they looked great, but not 15s.
bottom wheel: looks terrible on any fit in any size.

just my opinion. dont take it to heart.

Well I googled rota slipstreams and found JayDM.Com which sells the Rota Slipstreams in white - they are only $445.00 (free shipping in the USA) for four in white That gets me excited because white is what I have wanted from the beginning. I really did not want to go with the black because I just love the way white rims look on the MR Fits. I was getting discourages because I would surf for hours, find some white rims and then find out they were discontinued. I even bought a new wheel and rim mag and could not find anything that did not cost nearly $1,000.00 for white rims. This may be the answer and I thank you for mentioning them to me. I am just not familiar with all the different companies and I am planning to call them Tuesday and make sure that these will work but it looks like the bolt pattern and specs will fit the stock tires just fine. MX6Gt89 was kind enough to give me the details of what to look for. You guys are the best! So what do you think of Roto's?
