Need new TEMP wheels, help me decide :) Trade anyone???
Hi all,
I just can't stand riding on 18's anymore I need to go to 15's or 16's. If I lived in a suburb maybe I would be ok with it but I just can't take all the hard bumps and feeling like I am cracking a wheel every other day
So I am thinking of trying to get one of these 3 sets for the time being till I get the $$ for my Work Meisters later this year.
The Nilos:
XXR 513's nice an clean 3.5 lip
XXR 002's Same size lip but a tad old school....
Keep in mind this is temporary! This is a cheap but nice little way to have some decent wheels and the pleasure of a bigger tire before I do a real upgrade.
PS: I almost forgot, my car...

yeah please do. I was not a fan at all of the 513's when I first saw them. but got the price and that crazy lip! I can get used to them
I like the Nilos as well. the 002's are cool if I can get them used cheap I will bit though. Like I said these are temporary for at least 5months..

Here are some photos of these wheels on cars
I wanted to use my own photos to avoid any issues
I think these is black will blend well enough... I would LOVE to see xA pics of this wheel on.
