BAC5.2 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Those actually look pretty sweet, though I am not a fan of darker wheels like that.

YN-TGL Posted August 28, 2010 Author Share Posted August 28, 2010 I'm told by a vendor that the 18X8s are 18lbs, though that seems a little low to me. Not sure to be honest, they didn't publish the weight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm liking these wheels, just curious about the weight tho... I was a sucker for the anodized blue center cap. No one had anodized center caps back then. Heck, I remember putting Borbet Type C's on my Sentra. 15x7's man. That was friggin HUGE back then. Most cars ran 13's. When I saw my first set of 16's I almost puked because I spent over $1500 on my 15's. When you made $4.00 an hour it took a LONG time to save $1500.

Haha...How about the chrome 15" Prime 5-spokes on a Mazda Protege with a STI look-alike wing? Yeah, I was ahead of my time, lol. I think someone from SOA caught a glimpse of my ride back then and decided to make the wing a standard option on the STI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
