ok i have two option in wheels and tires, which wheels do you guys think look better, i know which is the best bang for the buck, thats pretty obvious.
First the Drag Dr3's, in this deal i get four 17x7 Drag DR-3 Wheels 4x100 4x114.3 and BFGoodrich g-Force KDW Tires w/ 90% tread left all set to go just need some locks and lugs for $450....but they are about 2 hours from where i live.

Second is a set of drag Dr2's, in this deal i get four 17x7 rims and four tires but only two tires have about 30% left on them and the other two are shot, but they are for $200..if i go with this one i would have to get tires get them shipped mounted blaneced and get locks and lugs for them...which is about another $400...and these are only about 45mins from where i live...also i think joke as these on his red 4th gen too.

11-09-2007, 08:09 PM
i went and saw the dr2's last night, so i think i like them better
HondaNeedsBoost
11-09-2007, 08:11 PM
well with them u have to buy at least 2 new tires...but u should get all 4 at once..so then ur payin more...200+400+the tires is up there...with the other u pay 450 for them and pay for the 2 hours of driving BUT u wont need tires right away but still up to u
2.2Lude
11-09-2007, 08:13 PM

HondaNeedsBoost
11-09-2007, 08:15 PM

i say the dr3's look pretty nice, and with the tires its a great deal.. if you go with the dr2's you gotta get tires.. and getting bs tires is a bad idea... so youll have to scrape for some real tires... more money
I like the dr2's a little more.. just a fan of the 5 spoke, but if you dont got the money for the tires, i say the 3's

7-9 in the icws r nice but im off topic

11-10-2007, 12:37 AM
joke has the adr wheels that look like that but they are the better looking of the two, You also know that you could save some more cash up and get a new set of rotas for like 650

I think the 3s look a lot nicer for sure. If you end up not liking them, you dont have all that money put into new tires.
2.2Lude
11-10-2007, 01:37 AM
yeah im not really into rotas
mizlude
11-10-2007, 02:37 AM
the rota d2's would look so good on your car man i'd get them if I wasnt planing on 5 lug swaping my car and getting some volk's ( black with the red lip mmmmmm )

11-10-2007, 02:41 AM
i say dr3's. five spoke are cool but everyone has them, i like uniqueness. plus they have more tread. either way good deal. and as for these rotas for 650 do they come with tires.

well if you're gonna spend 400 for tires anyway why dont you go ahead and buy the dr3s with the BFGs on them and get the BFGs mounted on your dr2s then you'll have an extra set of rims or you could sell them for 300 and get some money back and only lend up paying like 100 bucks for a nice set of tires! because those g forces are not cheap
2.2Lude
11-13-2007, 11:46 AM
yeah but it didn't have the money on hand to do that plus the guy with dr3s was hella lagging on me and the fact that he's two and half hours away from doesn't help either
