Tires aren't suppose to be shiny. They are black rubber and should only be black, never shiny. I would love to go back in time and kill the man who invented tire shine before he invents it. You should always clean your tires so they are black without being shiny.
Those look like the Drag wheels I had on my MS3.

dude... what size are those Mox? They're the same wheels I'm sure (DR-19).
Yeah they're covered in mud because the owner did some "off roading"
I had a screw in my right rear tire so I yanked the wheel to plug it and conveniently there was a blue neon parked next to me and I had always wondered what those wheels would look like on my car so I swapped them between the two cars to snap a pic.
My wheels on the donor car

This REALLY makes me wanna snag these in gold now. Too bad they're $20 more than the red dr9s

want real ones. and I don't think I want 16"s. i didn't like the way it looked and I don't want to lower the car more. Maybe 17"s in gunmetal or gold, or maybe just new tires for the dr9s

get bbs lm reps or other better looking bbs styled wheels.. search on vortex.. you can find a ton on the 5x100 for sale area.. 17,18,19".
i can say those are far from bbs reps. they have sorta the look but i can tell they are an aftermarket rip off.. they look like hp evos or something along those lines . i dunno i just cant put my finger on it.. just not right to me

doesn't look like an HP EVO to me. I love those wheels. They have machined spokes, not pointed.
They ARE BBS reps, just not the good ones that coast as much as REAL BBS.... aka Miro, etc. If I had a grand to blow on wheels I'd have real BBS LM
They look cheap because they are. I hate multi lug wheels (which I currently have) but it is what it is.

now see thats a bbs rxII from like wolfsburg jettas. and when i think of bbs that wheel just doesnt come to mind..i think stock blah jetta wheels.. i dunno .. maybe its cause i was a dubber at one time. when i think bbs i think of lm's, rc's rs's, ch's .sidepipe87 wrote:Real BBS

just something about those wheels ryan that clash with me.. like they arent even close to the miros, raderwerks even the kongi remember reps that i feel can truely be called reps.. because they can be hard to tell from the real ones at a galance. those to me dont even deserve to be called bbs reps.. because they are so far from being even close to the real deal.. Not trying to be a dick just stating how i feel about them. save up man and get decent reps.. i found a set of like new 17" miros lm reps with newtires in ny for 950. all 4 rims and tires. now the tires wont fit your neon but stuff like that pops up on vortex all the time..get luck y youl find them with the size tire you want or with out.. im working on a set of rs reps now for 500 with out tires and another guy with tires in the size i need for 750.
EDIT- looking at them on the mazdaspeed they dont look as bad as the ones on your car.. i think sizing might have a roll in that.. wanna say what 16" vs 18" versions?? like i said the ones on your car just come off wrong to me.. the ms3 not as much

mox's definitely look better in the bigger size, no doubt. fuck it. fake bbs wheels are too expensive. right now it looks like I'll just drop the $300 for new nitto tires come spring.
or maybe
-16" red dr9s
or what I've wanted for quite a while
-black/yellow konig daylites. fuck what ya heard.

17". I think it'd be hella sexy. I love them and no one else has the balls to run them because of the yellow lip. who cares, I think they look awesome.
One dude has them on his SRT in this color. Only one I've seen



looks aggressive as fuck, imo

What old ones?... I didn't change anything. Those are my sister's wheels. My gunmetal DR9s are still on the car.

i actually like those "reps" -and i use the term loosely- on your car, a lil lower and it would be sex
daylights are cool too

I like people who BUY a 10 sec car and then brag about it. Thats like hiring someone to bang your wife and then bragging about the kid
