[EDIT] new pics up

sorry for the crappy quality, been rainy here. finally got a few pics. like i stated earlier, i really wanted the motegi mr7s in gunmetal but they were impossible to find. so these are the drag dr33 in silver, will hopefully get them painted to gunmetal. i originally got them in gunmetal, but drag's gunmetal is nearly black so i returned them.

overall im pretty happy with the look, will get spacers and roll the fenders when i get time. maybe when the weather improves ill get better pics

[end EDIT]

Just ordered these this morning, they should be here next week. Also plan to get 15mm spacers to push the offset to 30, and roll the fenders.

Here they are: Drag DR-33 18x7.5, 45 offset, charcoal-grey matte finish

Some preliminary photoshopping to show what they'd look like:

Very nice!!!

They look much easier to clean than my dad's 03 Accord EX V6 stock 16" wheels.

Not bad. The Photoshopping is funny, did you notice that the brakes are swapped front to back in the first pic. :lol:

why don't you mind your own business :-)

I like them, everyone has their own taste. More expensive does not always equal better

What did those old rims look like?

I wish I had that much cash to throw around, haha, some of you guys switch wheels like clothes.

i liked the MB battles a lot better...better offset too...

i don't understand why you would buy brand new wheels in a certain offset and buy spacers to get them to fit better. seems kinda backward.

but i'm sure they will look good, buying new wheels is always fun. :sweet:

I really liked the MB battles but i think they only look good if the car is slammed and you are going for that real aggressive look. Plus you have o get the 9.5" width to get them to be real concave, which won't fit our cars. I did some photochopping and it didn't look so good. I'll post up pics later

i see that style too much. i wouldnt get them. you need some wheels with some more lippage

your car though you do what your want... im just statin my opinion. to each their own

by **.onetohate** » Mon Dec 07, 2009 11:13 am

for the MB Battles, you can run 9.5s .. 18x8 +30 (F) & 18x9.5 +23 (R)
.. after that- i'll send you my fender roller so you can roll and pull the bajeezes and out ov yr rear fenders! :party:
