The Wonders of the JDM Wheels

[Revolution Boi]

Got it from another forum posted by MINT. I agree with him also...I don't want that "awww shit dem r tyte rims" Lets use this thread a guide, not for those who need an idea for what kind of rims they want or need so we don't need another thread for just one person. I figure this would be a good idea to compress those who need help with offsets, sizes and suggestions for which style they are aiming for.

With the Honda scene, the rarer and the uglier seems to be a good trend. VIP style rims, I would like to a share of them on this thread. Don't forget those 3 piece expensive ones.

Share!

in complete honesty...I think mugen sucks at making wheels. the M7's are probably the ugliest ones of the bunch right next to the mr5's.

I'm in love with work vs-editions though. I finally found a beat up set on ebay that i wanted to repair...but i was fucking outbid. Fuck my life =[

i love old school ssr's on my nissans though.

depending on what tools are available to you; it's virtually limitless.

*you can repair scuff and scratches by sanding/grinding or even using body filler.
*repair paint by stripping the entire while and recoating it (diy spray can or powder coat process)
*fix bends with a hydraulic machine (or use heat and some elbow grease [be very careful])
the list goes on and on...

I'm still trying to snag a set of vs-editions in a beautiful width & offset. (hopefully a killer price too) "/

what about cracked rims? anything that i can use to fill in the crack?

[allen]

some machine shops can weld the wheels back together and make it true again, but that word can only be used so loosely.

i dont get why people are saying some wheels are getting old when you've never rocked a set
