I just mounted some NT-Rs today and thought a few people might want to see what bronze looks like on stock blue. Its not a good pic becouse it is pouring rain. The spot on the bumper is actually a rain drop on the lens. I will post better pics if there is an interest. I am pleased by the outstanding wheel quility for the low price -alittle less then $250 each, and of course the weight. The claimed weight is 17.2lbs and mine were actually 17.4. They are all four 17x9 and fit perfect. I am running 255/40/17 Goodyear Eagle 1s.

nice

 

Cool wheels, I have never heard of them before... both cheap and lightweight. I would like to see some more pics. What offsets are you running?

 

They are Sparco wheels in a 45 offset. Bricke was the first on the forum to run them. Search for Sparco NT-R and you will find his info also.

Looks nice Glad you like them, they are a good choice. Did you go through Discount Tire Direct for the Sparcos?

 

hey those are pretty wild, they look ''delicate'' but I'm sure they'll hold up just fine.. they sure are lightweight, thats a good price too.
nice size on your car, it looks great.

 

any chance in getting these polished or chrome?

 

hey bricke, yes I got them at discount as you suggested in your old post.
The wheels are only available in bronze, black or white as far as I know. This weekend I will take some better pics. Thanks for the compliments.

 

i looked up the site when i posted that first post here and i saw that, but isnt there somethin out there like......i forget what it is, but it makes it looked polished like chrome kinda.....anybody know what im talkin about?

 

They are available in 3 colors:







Whether all three are available here in the US is another problem.

I dont know if anyone still cares but here are a few more pics I said I would post. I car is still dirty but you get the idea.

 

I've got black ones on my VR R1 and they are a great wheel for the price.

 

if you got time, pls post some pics of your car.

debating on when i go wheels, if these are the ones to go with. the main reason i like these wheels is because of the perfect size i want (17x9 +45), light weight, and price. (are they strong tho?) the only thing holding me back from %100 deciding on these wheels is the style. i've always been a fan of thicker spoked rims. i was thinking balck on vr, but not too sure if i woiuld like it.

thanks,
chris

 

What "Mahjik" said, however, if you want the wheels polished or chromed, there are wheel shops that can machine polish or chrome dip the wheels for you (at an additional expense of course).

 

I'll have to get some pictures of them on the car, maybe if it warms up enough tomorrow I'll take her out and snap some for you.
I think they look really nice, but that's just my opinion.
They aren't a flat black either, they have a lot of metallic flake that you wouldn't notice at first.

 

Better late than never.
