How about these wheels?

Have you done so much to the car today that it just doesn't fit into one section, or are you too damn lazy to split it all up? Either way, this is the section for you.

1010 tire.com has a really good online catalog, prices are ok, I use their tire size calculator all the time and their pictures are great.

Hey Jimmy, I found them online as low as $94 each. They only come in 14x7 and 15x7. The 4x100 bolt pattern will be coming out in May.

Im definately going to score some! I think the black and polished lip! Considering the darn break dust that these lil cars produce :x :lol:

HNot a fan of the gt 3, but a set of rota slipstreams....now that would be the ish.

However, if all goes well, I have a set of these coming for the rocco in the 16x7 flavor wrapped in Toyo Proxies to start with.

Yea, I've like the R's for a long time and had a shot at a set about 2 years ago, but the person that had them flaked on me so the search continued. This set is pretty muched locked in. If all goes well, I'll have them next week in time for the Southern Volks Fest the weekend of the 30th.

Well Konig finally came out with the 4x100 Rewinds.
They are a about $100 each.

I did a lil photochop to see how they would look on my car.
They only come in 15 inch, but if I get them, I will get the 195/45r15 from Kumho.
