Wheels on a budget. POST THEM HERE!!!
I understand both sides of the spectrum, but maybe the wheel debate should be another topic? Would make it easier when people search the subject down the road.

I think most of us see the reasoning from both sides. Thoughts, comments, and arguments are appreciated but I created this thread so those who would like to save some money and get something nice for their car can see the options they have available.
With that said we need more input on reasonably prices wheels. |

Stop putting people down because your budget is bigger then theirs. If you can afford a set of wheels that costs as much as a turbo kit great. I like this forum LESS and LESS everyday. Because of all the snobs. I try and leave it alone but really stop the 86 on 86 hate...all the ricer threads and all...if you want to hate make your own thread be a jerk there...dont come into some guys thread and sling hate. Chances are your shit stinks too, cause you bought an 86 not a faster car that cost more. Take a look in the mirror stop putting people down to make yourself feel good about yourself.

I actually bought gramlights 57 x tremendous and curb rushed 2 of them. Seeing that to replace the wheels will cost 600$ ea not shipped. I said fuck it sold them and bought replica wheels so that if that does happen it'll cost me 200$ to fix. I'm buying those esm 04s

Here's how they look on some members cars. jdrmoney p00mba ![]() and heres the thread on the Miro 111s. Thicker spokes and more concavity http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=18980 |

yeah, but less than 1lb difference in comparison to the Ray Gram 57xtremes. If my car sees track time I would swap out to the stockers with some better rubber.
Someone made the analogy comparing wheels to shoes. Would you use dress shoes for the gym, vice versa. Not an option for a lot of people though. |
