the wing is from an 00+ Toyota Celica GTS.

i really like the darker rims better too, they just seem to fit better. i think the silver ones are just a little to blingin' for my car.

thanks for your comments guys!

i like the silver ones better, the 2nd ones just seem to disapeer into the car. i like my rims to stand out a little

New sig in the works

well, the wheels are not actually completely black, they're more of a really dark gray. here are a couple of other red cars with them...





they also offer the wheels in black, but to me black rims almost look like steelies from far away, so i'll probably stick to the anthracite.

thanks for all of you comments guys!

#1. The other wheels dont stand out enough.

well, i just found out that they don't make the silver wheels in a 17x7 with 5x100 bolt pattern, so looks like my choices have narrowed...that's ok, though, because once i get the money i'll be going for the anthracite wheels. here is a new chop i did today (got my skirts painted and back from the shop)

i couldn't believe the price on them. i was just browsing edgeracing.com's site and found those artic's, and then saw the price at $102/wheel, i was amazed!

supposedly fliks are made specifically for edge racing, they're not bad quality, and they arent heavy either.

i was wondering about Flik wheels because I pulled up a search for images, and all i found was edgeracing pictures. and yeah, thse 17's are only 18 lbs./wheel. my old konigs were at least 20 or so per wheel.

The wheels looks good but will be better in 18's. I'd pick #2.
Btw your car looks sweet!

thanks man, i really appreciate that coming from you. and ya know, i think you're starting to talk me into it. i suppose i should at least look into 18's, just to see how much of a price difference they are....

I'm in the same boat, I WANT 18", but I dont want to sacrifice the performance, comfort, and durability. Not to mention they're usually like adding another 17" wheel where price is concerned.
