heyyo. i just acquired these turtle shell rims. i wanna know, with or without centercaps?






post up.

 

since when did these become turtle rims? anyway i think they are SE/LS rims?

And i'm gonna be biased and say the no center cap because it looks better on a lowered car, plus u save weight LOL

sidenote: you should paint them black, that'd be sick and you'd be the FIRST on TI to rock them.

 

I had those wheels,Their 96 GSR wheels.Their also the second lightest wheels compared to the 13" civic wheels.

+1 for no center caps

 

Fuzzy refers to them as SE's I think. The "turtle shell" rims are off the '97-'00 Acura 1.6EL's.

BTW, +1 for no centre caps. Those extra wide centre caps make the rims look unproportioned (unproportionate? :S ) IMO.

 

arent they called gsr knuckle rims some ppl call em that ...i unno but they look nicer with out the center caps

 

i've heard ppl calling them spider rims

 

snowflakes

 

yup snowflakes minus center caps look good

 

+1 no centre caps

 

snowflakes mang,

i diden't put on my center caps:

 

No caps for me

 

Old EL rims are turtle rims. Anyways no centrecaps - with centrecaps is ugly.

 

no centrecaps
and paint them black bronze or gunmetal

 

+1 for no centres on the -Ninja Stars- iuno i just made that up

 

Without

and it's called SE's or snowflakes

 

I was just thinking I had those rims (without caps) on my civic si hatch like 7-8 years ago. Damn Ive been in the modding scene a long *** time I even had clear tailights for a short time when clear lights were the newest ---- around (not altezza but clears)

 

aren't snowflakes another name for meshies/webs?

they look better without the centercaps in those two pics, even though the car without them is lowered, imo.

 

"Snowflakes" = 96 GS-R/Special Edition

Meshies/Webs = 97-98 GSR/99-01 GS/LS optional


BTW No center caps, gunmetal and dumped

I know my camber and toe settings are all off

 

lol

 

lmao.. that pic is awesome...

 

^^^ Well here is more since everyone wants to know what my conversion looks like from the front.

P.M. FuzzyLS BRO. Last time I checked his spares he has his unmolested...unless you want mine painted gunmetal. lol

 

Put the caps on! Gotta protect those nuts!!!!

 

best picture ever... hey was that my fender????

haha i say no centre caps..

 

no centre caps and gunmetal... like what Mandy has:

 

speaking of turtles, the ft end bryan and glenn are sitting behind looks like reminds me of teenage mutant ninja turtles.....

 

^^^ lol. Im making those leathers into desk chairs. Reclinable car seats are one of the most ergonomic chairs available.


Im seling the SE and going with these if and when I can find them again.
