Regarding Rims?

[tsfatt]

Dear all Sifus,

I just would like to ask ... How come some 15" rim ... RM more then 2k & some less then 1k??

Is that really diff??

Anyone use rim where less then 1k ?? Can last long??

Branding, material used, light weight, and so on, so differ in price.
15" rims nowadays quite cheap, around RM800 to 1k. My friends using with no problem....

15" SSR Type C Taiwan / Replica Rim = RM800 ~ RM1,500

- Cheap
- Durability depend on manufacturer
- Easy to replace if damaged / broken
- Theft proof (unless that mofo is desperate la)
- Less sakit hati if scratched or run over pot hole
- no re-sale value

15" SSR Type C Japan Rim = RM2,000 ~ RM3,500

- Overpriced
- Japan made mah!
- Lightweight
- Bling / Swag factor
- Target for thief
- great re-sale value

What ever it is, for a real mod kaki, it will all comes down to own preferences & deep pockets of course

I just get a local made enkei 14inch, cheap and got quality good enough for me.
Would like to get Japan made rims but not affordable at the moment.

[intrigue]

Japan rim some are affordable but the question is... is it worth it when u park outside and wake up seeing it become 8 bricks?

Nowadays crime are at all time high.. better go for sleeper type. Stock exterior + exhaust, monster inside.

Got limited budget, then buy TW replica rims, already very good value for money.
Got extra bigger budget, then buy forged Japanese rims.

 

[Supra_Fanatics]

True, you buy expensive rims, just make sure your car is always park inside the house compound or at
least at guarded areas.

These are the things you need to worry when get expensive imported rims.

Too many petty thieves out there. Is no longer can have the thinking of "Park Anywhere" anymore.
Go out also need to find or best of all maybe valet parking? That's the only one I can think of a secure area.
