new very light weight 18's
 
Here are some teaser pics of my future rims...I'm just waiting for the spacers to come in and for my friends new HRE wheels for his Supra to come in...
couldn't put them on due to sum hub fitment issues supra hub is 61mm and mine are 66mm no biggie though got sum spacers comming that will fix the prob...

drdave2387 Dec 15, 2008 04:48 PM

yeah he's a huge toyota fan but they are so much fun to ride in i know that much...anything you can do 205mph in a fairly small straight stretch in is fun...

surfcity40 Dec 15, 2008 04:49 PM

ok

DustinZ33 Dec 15, 2008 04:59 PM

what kind of wheels are these?

drdave2387 Dec 15, 2008 05:00 PM

18" fikse aro

terrasmak Dec 15, 2008 05:20 PM

Very nice wheel

drdave2387 Dec 15, 2008 05:37 PM

one good thing about them is that the back rim weighs 7 pounds despite being 11in wide

Please clarify that statement a little better. An 18x11 Fikse Aro probably weighs close to 20lbs. Although it is a very nice, well made wheel..

I miss my Supra.:rockout:

Mr.Silvia Dec 15, 2008 06:38 PM

is Blach the guy who just set the 8.04 6spd time? Nice wheels. Interesting style but I like it.

Motormouth Dec 15, 2008 07:23 PM

the whole thing rim and tire weighs only 20lbs...bare rim is very light

Kwame Dec 16, 2008 04:44 PM

Fikses Very Nice!

Motormouth Dec 16, 2008 04:46 PM

two things

1 - you do realize of course your rims, in no possible way... at all, weigh 7 lbs a piece. I would like to see you admit that... you should weigh them.

2 - ... you wouldn't happen to be a troll messing around, would you? seems really (really) stupid for one person to own so many of the same car. just a thought. The way you also brag about his cars is unsettling and your writing style is evocative of a poseur.

just my take on this situation. if not, more power to you. I like the rims and will look better when the car is on the ground, lowered. look forward to the pics if so.

OldDirty Z33 Dec 16, 2008 04:48 PM

they look ok I bet it would look a lot better when actually on the car.

haha...the tires alone probably weigh 25-28 lbs each...so I'm not sure how you say the tire/wheel combo is only 20. I think you've been misinformed and might want to actually throw those on a scale, I'm guessing 45 - 50 lbs per tire/wheel combo. Fikse does make a decent wheel though.
