Tell me what you think of my Turbo II Rims off of my '91 on my FD. I swapped the rims from my T2 to my FD... and what do ya think. I think it looks nice. It looks a whole lot better than the stock FD rims.

I took these with my cell phone so don't hate on the pics.... It is my only Camera.


















I like how the flush the body better than the stock FD's. It is a nice, "After Market" look for the FD. I get way more looks than before.

Let me know what you guys think.

 

Personally I think they make it look outdated. I'd probably just stick with the stock FD wheels on it.

 

+1 they look obsolete.

 

crap. Oh well.. Its not like they are permanent.

I think I might keep them on for awhile.

Thanks for the honest oppinions anyways.

 

I personally dont like them either...And arent they smaller width wise as well?

 

Yes they are actually. 205... versus the FD's 225* I just wanted to see them on an FD and take some pics to see what you guys thought. Just for info Pics do the real thing no justice. You have to see them in real life.

If you are in the RRDI group I will bring them to the meet this weekend and let you see them in person. If they are not accepted then I will swap them back for the FD stockers.

 

Put back the stockers please.

 

i have actually seen it before. it looks like crap! we have some of the nicest stock wheels you can get, how can anyone not like them??

 

wow.... I feel like a toilet bowl now....

 

Well - you tried. I think those looks you're getting are looks of disgust

I think the stockers should go back on my friend.

 

understood.... stockers are going back on tomorrow.

Thanks for the real answers guys.

 

Who cares what they look like, they weigh 10 lbs more per wheel, and they are only 16x7 with 205s! Let's jam some size 3 shoes on your feet and see how well you run....

 

It would look like this shame.....

 

looks outdated indeed... it would look better if it had more lip... MmM lip...

Yeah I have to agree with that. They kind of remind me of the BBSs I had on my old Carerra, sans 2 inchs and a huge lip

 

Holy ****, Rich, you just made my night...

 

Oops, I hope there's no hard feelings, I forgot to put a smiley at the end of my post.

 

Although I'm not a fan of the look, it's nice to know that those wheels fit.



I think I see what you're aiming for, however. BBS-style mesh wheels are my favorite on these cars:




-s-

 

Its all about teh Volkzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

 

At first I was like.... wow thats kind of harsh just for putting the rims on the car and seeing how they would look and then posting about it. So I was like..... better make a smiley out of it, life is to short.

Thats was the look I was looking for. I guess it didn't turn out so good.

Oh well guys, live, learn, then get huggies is what I always say when things don't go as expected. But I thought they looked nice. Interesting as to how they went more flush with the cars wheel wells than the stockers.

 

Nawwwwwwwwwww. More about teh Enkeisssssssssssss......

 

Yeah the rims don't work with the car. I love the rims but they dont do the FD justice. Fits the style of the FC much better.

 

just paint the stock FD rims black and call it a day ^^

 

Rich: You got a PM

I'd go back to the stockers.
