    Wheels? Like em? or Not?

    So I know alot of people hate Sportmaxx Wheels but hell theyare cheap and who the fawk cares if they are knock offs alomost every wheel in "style" is!

    But to my Main question how do you feel about the XXR522's? Im highly considering them for a stretch and poke look on my 87'is coupe. Considering the 16's arent but $99.00 a wheel and should look good?

    Oh Coupes a white color and im considering the gold ones.....



    Discuss..........

    Pics if you can find em on an e30?

    2: the design concaveness actually looks much less dramatic in that photo and absurdly hideous in real life.

                        it will not dissapoint.

                        oh and if you want a better look, just knock the plastic fake shit out of the wheel.
                        thats what i do

                            I even like crazy colors like pink and green and blue but once again I have no idea where to start looking when looking for a huge lip like that

                              To answer your question. No, I don't like them at all. I have strong feelings against non-direct fit wheels, aka multi-lug or hub rings.

                              BUT. It's all up to you man. They are dirt cheap so if you think they look fine you aren't out much money. Just make sure you want 16" so you can reuse tires if you change wheels in a month.
