I kno da nu wheels are da shiz mang

1.8L FG KiDd · 03-17-2008, 05:49 PM

Yeah, very subtle yet...goes super wheel with the car. Reminds me of the Euro Grand Touring cars. I think that this style of rim is going to be the new "fad" now watch. Just like the Volk Re30s

***BlueSi4*** · 03-17-2008, 05:58 PM

Well the Superleggeras have been around for a while, i just love the way they look and how light they are...looks a lot better than i thought.

Am thinking of getting the sportlines also... I have the same FA5 fiji too... Wanted to know when u had the stock wheels with the sportlines, how was the ride??? any rubing??? bouncy, or the front too low to drive under dip or pot holes??? ohh one last question, how bout when u have people in the back seat any issues???

Sorry for all the questions....

***BlueSi4*** · 03-19-2008, 01:23 AM

Stock wheels with Sportlines, never had a problem. Not too bouncy, no rubbing, i do scrape the exhaust every once in a while in certain areas, such as Speed Bumps but nothing too major. The front i never really scraped it, you just have to be careful when you are about to park.
As far as the people in the back, well my grandma complained that it was too stiff of a ride. Basically, older people will hate the ride. Every single little thing on the road, you're going to feel it, but you also get a better feel of the road and can take turns a bit faster.

No, i've had a full car and it's never been too low. The Sportlines do a great job at holding weight.

One thing i forgot to mention. If you go with 225/45/17 tires, you will rub with the Sportlines.
