What do you recommened?

those companies arent going to have much to offer fitment wise.

Because I really want these two and I like the design.
I have been looking at the Konig Rewinds, they dont look that bad but their four lug
I have really been looking at the Maxxim Grips and they Maxxim Guilt rims, they look rice and plug im going for a staggered look.
what do you think?

I suggest going with konig wholes....if they even still make them. They have a pretty decent lip and a very cool look.

rewinds are the only ones w/ a rwd offset that I know of. Hit one curb and they are history though..... I know from experience.
I'd say keep looking...
Be careful buying cheap wheels if you plan on doing anything but daily driving your car. Here's a picture of a Rota that went off the Road-a. haha

seems like your mind is made up. So why are you asking? we already told you what we think of cheap wheels.

Naw, my mind isnt made up yet. Just trying to get some opinions on the offsets and sizes, not the quality of the rim.

lol! thats all a matter of personal opinion. You can go mild, wild, and retarded in those areas!

If you do these get the 17x9's all around for the sake of not being lame! That may be the route im going cause im broke and in school. plus I already have big spacers so their lame offset isnt an issue.

yea, 17x7 is hella weak, even for the front.
kidsaru has the right idea, there's a set of those on zilvia right now (although i think they're like 18x11 -26), but they're like $2700 :(.
p.s., i still have some baller 19x9.5 962's (any maybe my 17x9's as well which are currently on clint's car) that i need to sell, somebody buy these things! haha :).

This guy on zilvia has the right idea:

omg so sexy!!

Dman that S14 is sexy, but im to into all that chrome, at least not on my S13, lol.
Im still lookin to see, I like the Sportmax but for some reason im just really leaning toward Konig cuz I can get somewhat of a deal on them (konig meaning Maxxim and Privats also)
The Privat Fahrenhiet (sp?) look kinda good and stylish.
Damn Konig for their RARE RWD offsets, lol.
Oh and Doriman, just shut the hell up, you are definately not needed here.
Im going for a staggard look, you dont like it, thats great, deal with it.

04-28-2007, 12:14 AM

Ya I want to go staggered also.

staggered fitment is cool, but not if you run FWD sizes in the front.
dorimon was just making a polite suggestion to keep you from being hella sunk up there, which would look bad.
and hell yes (again) to those works. if i didn't already have a wheel sponsorship, i would find some way to come up with enough money to buy a set of those. one day.... :)

You asked, we provide answers...
Don't make excuses for cheap ass rims unless they are good sizing (Sportmax 002/Hotwheels Sixty Eight).

If you want wheels that aren't gonna nuke your bank, but won't break when you curb them, just get some 5Zigen FN01RC's.
I'm sorry, but I despise Konig wheels almost as much as APC. I hate it when a company tries to duplicate a popular design at the cost of quality. It's ricer shit, so I'm sorry if I sound like an asshole.

haha teh hostility.
anyways..
whats the advantage of staggared setup? other than fitment?
doesnt S13 already have more understeer than an average RWD car?
anyhow..
17x8, 17x9.. i have pairs of those @ the house.. fn01rc..
you'd have to run a good spacer in the back b/c the rears are +42mm.
run a 40mm spacer? :)
and the fronts are +25.
anyhow.. if you want these. lmk.
