    My new wheels!!!

    Thats right people!! Im FINALLY ditching my chromes. Ive had my current wheels for almost 4 years now and it is soooo time for a change. I think that the wheels I just bought are total opposites. They are the Visions from ADR. They are gloss black and 4 sizes bigger (14 in ----> 18x7.5). Here is a picture of them for those interested. I already have Kumho ECSTA MXs (215/35/18) so Im just waiting for the wheels and slotted rotors from Powerslot. SCHWEET!! Whatcha all think? Good and bad feedback please!!

    Those are definately nice wheels. I considered them before ordering my new ones. I thought I remembered not being able to find the proper offset though.

          Yeah, they were alright looking. I got those when I was going through my "Chrome Phase". I was trying to do a lot of my exterior accents chrome. Im glad I didn't though. Ive seen a Hummer H2 around my area with nothing but chrome everything on it and it looks so bad. So...... cluttered. I finally woke up and decided to get some tuner wheels ad get away from the chrome.

            So what wheels did you end up getting? You said you could find the right offset or me? I ended up getting the 42 mm offset. Which Im pretty sure is going to rub so I'll have to take it to a machine shop and have someone shave the wheel pad a little. I'll put them on and see how the ride is. Then go from there I suppose.

              Thank you thank you. I like em myself. These were my next option after the G-Racing Siegens fell through. I think I like these wheels more now that I look at em both. I saw the Siegens on the Civic in the McDonalds commercial advertising the 2.0 Best Chance Game. They were alright looking, but not as eye-catching as I thought they would be. If you want a good deal on the Visions, you should go to www.coolwheels.com and talk with Matt. The wheels retail for around 180.00/wheel and he got them for me for 165.00/wheel with free shipping and the lug nuts and locks included.

                    Where did you find them for that price at? Just out of curiousity?

                      The dealership lists it as "Emerald Green Mica". Thank you for the compliments. I like em too. They caught my eye as soon as I saw em. I think the wheel looks bad ass as is, but with the "Vision" on in the inner lip makes it look even sweeter!! With the right offset, the 18s should fit. Ive looked around on the forums and saw other members safely riding on 18s with no problems. So now Im just another Pro on 18s!!

                            I know what he was pricing. He mentioned the 16x7s in an earlier post. I was just wondering where he found his wheels at. I wasn't looking to compare prices or anything. Just curious thats all.
