Default Picture request: Sportmx/ Oldschool wheels?

OK, Ok, OK.. So the 002's rub, and don't really fit right with out suspention mods. Im picking up an xB for a daily driver , So I don't want to drop it. But I Do want an oldschool looking rim, What do you suggest?


Im getting ready to Join the xB lifestyle. Im looking into a Blue 05 xB. I wanna get a set of rims right off. Im A fan of the oldschool look. Therefore I'd like to see a set of Sportmax 501, 002 or the 962. perferable on a blue xB and with the 002 because thats what Im leaning towards. thanks

The ride is better than factory, but I don't know if it is low enough.

See thats what Im talking about! Are those BBist.com Flares>? Thats what Im going to have to do. Also If I might ask, What size/type tire are you running?

And Lastly Who has the best price on the NF210's? thanks

^ You know that he's dropped on DFs... those are the lowest springs out there, I thought you didn't wanna drop it?

Also, the ride doesn't suffer much when you drop it. Some find it to be better. So you really should lower it, it looks way better.

OK so these aren't any of the rims you listed but another old-school looking wheel are the Drag DR-20s or Work Equip 03 or Maxxim Screech or Zero Racing E3. They all look the same but the Drag's are nice and inexpensive.
Anyways, here's my 06.5 on 15x7 DR-20's, dropped on S-Techs with Monroe in the rear and 5mm spacers up front and 10mm in the back.

Let's see if I can figure out how to upload pictures ;P

Yes those are the bbist flares, Tires are a 195/50/15, If you get the 002's then you need to be dropped 2" or it will look funny

imo take the time and spend the money to get some real old school rims. they never go out of style and you stand out and can't be copied. good resources are hondatech forums and vwvortex. the have a lot of wheels in 4x100 for sale
