ok so i have a 86 na with a five lug convo and i was looking at rims for later down the road i came across these two rims http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=1855 and http://www.wheelmax.com/product.asp?ProdId=11312 sorry i havnt figured out how to work the pics yet. i was just woundering if you all had a bit more infor on them ie weight, durablity ect

 

The carbon ones dont look too durable to me...If they really are carbon, and you miss the nut with your wrench, oops, there goes your wheel. Between the two, i would choose the 5Zigen. I would probably rather go with HRE if it was my choice, and i had the money. Those wheels are expensive, but worth it.

 

ok brace your self for what comes ahead from the IGNORANTS---not me

now, i would say buy what ever you like best its your car...but remember you want to buy quality and not quanity....the 5zigen take the crop...theres a lot of guys running them too...they are light weight , look good, and come in nice offsets....those carbon style ones would look nice tooo but i can almost guarantee you within the next 5 post some ******* is going to call you a ricer

buy what makes you happy bro

 

I'd say stick with the 5z's the other brand looks kind of tacky and I don't think it would match the FC well. To rotary noob, it's only a finish. those are my 2 cents.

 

go with the Zigens There stylish and clean looking....the second one seems like brake dust would destroy it.. im not much for the carbon fiber look either

 

yeah i was looking for practical not flash i am not really a flashy guy. i was thinking the carbon fiber rims would be light weight. and carbon fiber is really stong but i agree they could crack i just dont want heavy wheels. also i dont like to follow others that is why i am kinda iffy on the 5zigen but o well whatever works i guess.

 

If the second ones were actual carbon fiber, I would be all for it. I tend to hate anything that is fake cf. Its like trying to make a Civic look like a Lotus.

 

They're not carbon fiber. Go with the 5Zigen.

 

yeah i really dont like the fake cf too. if they are not real then i wont buy them. i was just looking at light wheels. i was looking at volkes but i have to go to rhys site and its all in japanese. and i am just starting to learn how to read it
