Rim Opinions

I'm parking my car for the winter this week, but next Spring I'm looking at some new Hancook's and these rims XXR not horribly expensive for rims, Any recommendations on XXR rims? My paint is DG.

They look great, I love mesh style wheels. As to the quality of that brand, I have no idea.

They are made by Tanabe - same guys that make SSR rims. They are a cheaper alternative to the SSRs. Personally I'm not happy with my SSRs or the customer service :s but that's just my experience.

JRP is a rip... Not only do you get bent over when you buy VOLKS (so worth it tho ) but at JRP they will bend you over ten fold....
