    Looks alright... very different, and hell 12 lbs is awesome...

    and sell me your nippons . I think it needs to be lowered more to make the wheels fit the car. at 12LB a rim I wouldent be worring about how they look though. Can they fit a 205 size tire, if so that is a good deal.

I don't exactly think these wheels look SUPER on my car but hey its different. I've seen at least 3-4 accords with fat fives now and it makes me wonder..wth? I don't think anyone else have Mini Cooper wheels on their car (at least for now...)


    205/50/15 doesn't fit, 195 is the max..but hey...its a small sacrifice. as far as the ES100, I don't really like them too much but yet I paid $57 for each tire vs $98 for the bridgestones I had once. They do feel like the falken 512s but the treadwear is a bit less. I already rotated my tires after only 300 miles. ^_^



    Like legend said, at 12lbs a piece, who needs to care about how it looks. The fat fives are still there laying around. Don't know what I'll do with it yet though..

    right now im looking for some cougar rims the chrome 16's stock. my friend has them on his civic but he just doesnt have the center cap.
    heres what the rims look like
    http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-00...QQcmdZViewItem

    they loot hot on a 00 civic so wtf why not an 88lxi. the hard part is trying to find them.


    ps. he had the center cap sanded and re polished/chromed so the cougar head wasnt there anymore.'


    also the focus stock wheels look nice.

    Are they fat fives 16's? if so id buy um off ya if you sell them :P :P

    Im partial to the rims, i think they'll grow on me as i see them on your car more. Its different and dumb looking, but at the sime time, they make it look really clean... and like 10 years newer lol

    I think some 00 Civic SI rims would look sweet on a lowered 3g, has anybody tried that?

    These rims actually look better on the 3geez than the mini cooper itself.

    yea i know you are bias to the fat fives cause you own a set! Yes the fat fives look better but everyone now has fat fives on their 3rd gen. Think about it rendon, 2 years ago how many people had these rims on their car? I think maybe 3 of us. Now it seems like there are at least 7 cars. Maybe that number is a bit high but it's weird cause the other day I saw a 3rd gen on the side of the freeway in my friend's car and I SWORE it was my car cause it had fat fives and was the same color but I realized I'm rolling on mini cooper wheels now.


    Just trying new stuff. Besides, maybe i'll try some better looking mini cooper wheels

    Maybe it's just me, but I feel those rims are taking away from your car's overall image...

    That's got to be the cleanest living DX I've ever seen.

    Wow, that's absolutely amazing-that car does not look like it's 20 years old!
