These are the rims I am getting for my Spyder during winter.They are ordered but have som serious delivery time due to the fact they need to be specially ordered bc of our ET and boltpattern(doesnt come in 8,5x18)What ya say...good or bad? Will be on the Spyder with a new bodykit and custompaintjob.....

I would PS them on the car if I could but..I am no good at that..maybe someone will give it a shot? Pics can be found at http://come.to/gstspyder (not here for the PS stuff though)

Not my taste but it's your car man, I especially wouldn't buy them if they're only going to be winter wheels and need to be specially ordered($$$). If I were you I'd just pick up some 2g GSX wheels for winter :)
 
ahh..sorry if I was unclear..I dont drive my Spyder during winter at all..I meant that that is what I will be ordering during winter :)

I got a really good price so...280$ a wheel so...cant really put it down since I need to change my wheels now..had them for two years in a row and that cant be on a showcar*LOL*

Another pic of them mounted to a PT cruiser...

How much does the wheel weigh? They look so-so... but I always say that you should reserve judgement unless you see them on the car. I thought the rims I have looked stupid when I saw them on the ground and in pics, but completely changed my mind after they were on the car :)
 
havent gotten them weighed..and I really dont care all that much since if I wanted a drag car i wouldnt have gone for the drop top with FWD right .-)? I like the looks of those and if I go to the trax..I will go for 15's with slicks instead anyways so.... ;-)
 
well its your car. they are nice rims but not to my liking, but everyone has different tastes. i would personally get some gunmetal rims with a high polished lip. and leave the car black (don't know if thats what you plan on doing) i personally like cars that are clean with nothing extra on them. my wife just bought a toyota celica gt with the gts kit and wing and it has graphics on the side. she wants them but i am dying to take them off.

yeah to each there own. like i said its a matter of taste. there is really no such thing as good taste or bad taste. your taste in cars is different than mines. i think the car will look nice but it isn't what i would do (obviously) as you see in my gallery and sig pic my syper is plain jane. i don't plan on doing anything else to the exterior except for maybe a carbon fiber lip and possibly a hood.
