Aluminum Wheels ?

[StiXxX]

a friend of mine in Norwich Connecticut called me up last night to tell me he was holding a set of aluminum wheels for xmods. of course i didn't believe him and then i told him he had the new hot rod kit in his hands(the 1 w/ the brake discs), but he insisted that they were aluminum, he said they were a bit heavier than all the other wheel sets and he even gave me a price $16. does anyone hav any info on this , i just went to rs's website and i didn't see anything that i havn't already, so please inform me. i'm sure i'm not the onlyone wondering anywayz.
THANX in Advance

I have seen some custom made ones and some people have taken mini z aluminums and mudified them. ask him were he got them and ask for pictures of them on an xmod.

yea its true here they are

there on ebay for 25.99 each out of my price range

[punkjohn]

yea its true here they are

ok.. heres the scoop


the hot rod kit is plastic. VERY SHINEY PLASTIC!!! there is an alluminum set... but they look similar to the hot rod ones. the alluminum is a better choice tho, because you dont kill ur wheels everytime you try to drift.,..

The hot rod kit doesnt have aluminum wheels but rs is now selling aluminum wheels... But its the biggest ripoff ever... 4 rims= 25$

is that the only place to get them or has rs not yet started mass producing them

25 dollars for four rims??? the only way i would pay that much if they was spinners, n im talkin about nice spinners, this seems like a rip off to me but whateva yall wanna do

[Siks 6]

on Ebay some 1 was selling spinners for xmods i was gonna win them but it was too late

[element6968]

i think only ebay becuase the rumor about to alluminum rims on ebay is that a guy who worked at the radioshack warehouse grabbed a couple becuase they arent sapossed to be released till spring (according to my buddy at radioshack)
im not sure if this is all true, but i sure hope they bring the price down
25.00 for rims is not cool

my friend in Norwich Connecticut called me again, he told me that they hav bout 8 of the aluminum wheel sets at that rs.

and once again can anyone post the other NSX widebodykit aside from the one i posted above? Thanx

[modtuner99]

hye some stores have them very small amount of them and if you must have some and cant wait till ur store hass them i happen to have a bout 3 sets left that i will sell for 28 shipped

[SwedishRacer]

the rims are ****ing ugly!

Edit: There is a drift kit so you don't ruin your rims when you drift. taking your tires off makes you do donuts.

[livestrong350z]

cool
i want to know why did they make them the same style as the hot rod rims??
thats kind of dumb i think

[skylinedriver]

I'm from Philadelphia Pa. and I've seen the aluminum rims. They're nothing spectacular, diecast not machined. Not worth 25 dollars

[livestrong350z]

i'd just find some really cool lookin ones from ebay and buy them for cheaper than 25 bucks
