Some rims I'm looking at...

Got a question on outside appearance modifications. Questions about body kits, exterior lighting, just anything thats a visual mod on the "exterior" of the car. Ask those questions here.

Anyone have experiance with "sport edition" brand rims? These look alright, are cheap, and are lightweight at 17.6 lbs. I'm looking for decent looking rims, and these look alright and I'm sure they are lighter than the stock 03 r/t rims.

Honestly, all rims have to pass stringent testing, you will be just fine. If you like them, get them.

says the off-set is 35
I thought I read the ideal range is 38-42, but I guess that just means they will stick out a little more (?)

I have 35's on my car, and the tire is ALMOST dead even with the fender. It BARELY sits inside the fender lip.

It would look good then being closer to the outside of the car. I think I might just pick these up. Is 17.6lbs good??

17's will cost more (he mentioned he liked the price of these), and he might not want to have to lose his rubber because he'd have to size down to clear the non-SRT spring perches.

But 16's in this wheel still look nice IMO :)

I ordered these last night. They should be in on October 4th, because they have to get them special ordered. I will have pictures up when I get them installed. Also what is a good asking price on the stock 03+ r/t rims?

I found me some nicer rims. Voxx Monza 16x7. I got the money refunded for the other rims.

They cost more, and weigh about 18lbs, but I like the style better, and should really set off the yellow :)
