Default New rims for summer

Hey guys, I'm trying to get more hours in at work so I can buy these puppies

Platinum Apex 18"...Hyper Black with Machined/Diamond cut lip
wrapped in 245/45R18 Kumho Ecsta ASX



I think they look amazing

The price is, from what i remember around 1100..

I looked at the weight of them which idk, but concerns me for some reason. They weight 26lbs each.

Anyways, just wanted to get your guy's opinions on the rims for my future buy

hehe, my list is growing

They're nice, but very expensive.

I agree with the expensive part. I dont' see myself ever dropping anywhere near those numbers for any rims (Unless i hit the lotto of course), but if you can afford them, great.
With that said, those look amazing!!!

Haha thanks guys they do....

"Go big or go home" haha, i've always figured if you want your car to look good, be prepared to fork a good wad of cash over. I've always knew that bigger rims = bigger cost heh. Oh wells, i cant wait to get 'em

They are nice, but a bit on the pricey side.

lol no, more like $115 or $118 a wheel haha. Silly. That'd be ridonkulous.

That $1,100 is the total for the tire and wheel combo

Ah, the wheels are fairly cheap, what you wrap them with is another story.
