this is ridiculous, ive tried to quick reply my own post and ive failed like six times...n e wayz,
summary is
i need feedback for rims for the 1st gens, i am thinking about ordering some sets from japan and drilling them here which would give us access to atleast one new type of wheel for the 4x 110 mm in stead of these wack mesh ones
tell me your opinion..honestly...
inches
spokes or other designs(how many)
lip whatever
price youd be willing to drop on some custom made rims...be honest cuz obviously this endeavor wont be cheap at my end
thanx for everyones feedback

If you pay me $1, I'll let ya give me a set. I'm just messin with ya....Maybe $400-$500? Sound about right?

vizion47

this is all good keep them coming....but 4-500...panasprots are like 1200 with tires... i dont know

rxseven07

yeh were talkin without tires, tires are like 300, for quality

vizion47

do you have a good pic of the volks, just wanna see it for reference

DAVID GRIMES

Good idea, but I bet it will be hard to get a group of people to agree on one or more wheel styles they would commit to. Then you have 13", 14", 15", 16", 17" etc. Oh, and then the offset thing because there are stock and rolled fenders and various widebodies. Good luck, though.

Some 2nd gen BBS replicas would be saaawweeeet. 15x7" with 4x110 pattern.

maybe id have to take orders, and just offer one type but diff sizes, this might be more possible

id buy some 15's or 16's, spend 4-5 hundred on just the wheels. Id either some simple 5 spoke design with a polished lip, or multiple spoke with the polished lip. EIther way that look is pretty cool. Check out http://www.rslwheels.com/wheels/?sfID1=12&sfID2=70 or http://www.rslwheels.com/wheels/?sfID1=12&sfID2=105. Those are rsl wheels, ricochet and rival, and they're cheap too. They look awesome but dont come in 4x110. Make something like those

Ive thought about doing the same thing Rx7doctor, I think if I marketed some 5x7 black mesh wheels with a polished lip (15x7) the whole rotary community would be very interested since wheels like that are very hard to find in new condition and 4x110. Good Luck and let me know if I can help

You can order some billet wheel adapters form aim industries . I just did this and converted from the 4-110 to 4-100 min thickness is 11/4 this woked well for my new 15x7 rim cost is aroud 250.00 for all four.

That's a nice site. The US location is in PA. Very good selection of wheels too. I'm surprised I haven't seen this site reference on the 1st gen section before.
