i was looking at the profil13s also at the fm5s. however you do have a valid point about goodfellas. your fm5 are 17? the width and offset is the same?




Hey I get first dibs on your current rims if you do get some new ones.



I pay top dollar, 2,000 pennies for you bro!

the wheels may be the same weight, but the smaller fm5 wheels have less rotating inertia, thus take less torque to accelerate than than the profil13's. That said, I like the way the profil's look more because the fm5's remind me of the wheels that my friend put on his jeep wrangler. they just look odd b/c they dont have enough of a lip (the profils), so im gonna have to go with the fm5's

not entirely true.. i compared the weight of the rims to the tires that went on the rims... and the tires are heavier than the rims... with that said.. if you have 18's then you have less tires rotating

Get Advan 3 spokes, like on Ricky Chu's 240SX. Those are tiddies.
