Blitz type 03's...


Sweet design!! These things look bitchin on a 3rd Gen. How much do they weigh tho? Anyone know? If you have them, do you like them, or are they too overpowering in person??? Also, are they durable and will they hold up over time?

I'm looking into 17x9 up front/17x10 in back.

It would be kickass if you could post any pics you have if you have them on your car, ..especially if its a Red 3rd Gen like mine

Thanks in Advance,
sONic

I am starting to consider the Blitz Type 03's over the TE37's. I really wanted the LM edition silver TE37's with the polished lip, but they sold out VERY quickly. You can look in the Lounge I believe and find the topic by Mysterious GTU guy "Lets see some nice ..." or something close to that. There is a VERY nice picture of a blue FD with 03's. If you are interested in this rim let me know so we can look for good prices together and possibly do a group buy think but be prepared, they are not cheap.
Sport compact's wheel review listed them at
18X9 is 26 lbs. Go with an 18" rim if you can. They just look nicer. Also, an 8.5 up front and a 9.5 in the rear are recommended.

Private Message me if you want to collaborate on these.

Poweraxel also has those same rims on his car and they look sweet.

Dang you guys are mean!! I know that poweraxel does not have the ones on my car anymore because I bought them from him, so there.He may have bought some more I don't know, 18s or something?? any way Mine are 17s 8 in front and 9 rear I think I would like a 9 front and 9.5 rear better and they are heavier than stock by a lot but not like truck wheels or something. I may sell them soon and go with the wider wheels I think SSR gt2s.

It's in Japan so shipping will be like getting raped up the ***. Go to their website and drop them an email for the price w/ shipping. They have a lot of good **** there though.</font>

Cool

I think that the Blitz Type 03 wheel is one the best looking wheels out there. I happened to get my from an RX7 owner who blew his motor. Another good option is the Racing Hart M5s they have a vew nice lip as well.
