Hey guys,

I have an opportuinity to trade wheels with another member on here

Here is my car with the SVT spokes

and here is his car with MSR 068 (16x7..et 35)

it would be a straight trade..of coarse Im worried about fitment...but thats beside the point

please let me know what to do...

 

[WiscoGTI]

Do it.

But get rid of the xXx center caps. And powder coat 'em gunmetal. [headbang]

 

[fhh02a]

the caps would look like mine..

So, let me see if I got this straight. You have the Svt rims and you can trade them for the MSR rims.

If so, I would jump on it. They would look great in grey and possibly with bigger tires, they look kind of small on that car unless it's just the cleaning job.

I like the wheels but it looks like hes got little rubber band tires on em. Whats the size of the tires on those wheels?

Keep what you have, they look much better.

svt rims.

Classics never go out of style! Keep your five spokes!!

The other wheels don't look bad, but I would keep the 5 spokes.

 

[fhh02a]

the tires are 205/50 ...stock 16 size

Im really torn on what to do... cause I like both wheels

So assuming you put the factory tire on those SVT-5's you would have a 45 series sidewall with a 17" wheel.

You would be dropping down to a 16" wheel but getting a little softer ride with the 50 series sidewall.

Tough call. Nowadays most people want bigger wheels.

 

[fhh02a]

Im having a really hard time.

your svt rims are wider so you can put more rubber on the ground for better handling. I would keep what you got.

 

[LouBomb]

5 spokes ftw

 

[fhh02a]

your svt rims are wider so you can put more rubber on the ground for better handling. I would keep what you got.

they are the same width

 

[qdo44681]

they are the same width

Ok, if you like both sets of rims then go with the set that ways the least. I would personally want to keep the svt rims, i think they look better.

 

[Ehbnerohraa]

I personally don't like the other rims but the svt 5 spokes look very nice on your car !
