Sigh...why does there have to be people like this?? Coming in here and saying something like that is gonna have no other possible response than to piss newfiep5 off as I would get if someone dissed something I had just bought for my ride.

I know it's a public forum, but you really can keep those kinda thoughts to yourself!

Hey honesty is good...If i were him i would of shown the pics before i bought the rims to hear everyones opinion....I agree they aren't better looking then the stock ones......The racingharts that come are pretty nice.....I dont understand....I would consider getting other rims but they better be better looking than that......sorry... all it matters is if you like them and that is the truth......
race on brother

Yeah point taken...I guess there's just more tactful ways to do something...like you just did for instance

"I liked your old haircut better."

as opposed to

"Holy shit your hair looks like crap!"

Vegas, please try to watch you language on the boards.....please. It is possible to disagree with someone without blowing up an cursing to the blazes. Keep a cool head man.

i love the heidfields! I once saw them on a RX-7, they were hype.

Now, if only you had gotten the 18" ones.. *drool* :D

hahah i take everything in stride..some people like decals some dont, i wanted a mesh style rim , i dont like gunmetal rims, to each his own, and tis true i have a stock p5 not a mp3 , and 18's were out as the car is a daily driver and if you saw where i lived and the roads around here 17's will be pushing the limit :)

they aint cheap knock offs like some rims they are real 5 zigens which is a great japan based firm.

if you dont like em thats cool but i love em and i guess thats all that truely matters

chill

"they aint cheap knock offs like some rims they are real 5 zigens which is a great japan based firm"

This is true, but you did get the one piece ones, right. So in that sense, they are three piece knockoffs. It's just too hard to get around the knock off thing. If it isn't one thing it's another. hehe.

The Heidfields you saw on a RX were definitely the three piecers and there is an aesthetic difference. But still it's a 5Zigen. Good marketting move for them to produce the mold in a one piece.

Real great fitment though, follow my recipe. hehe. I want to see pics, real bad.

Thanks, Rishie
