Once I buy my MX-5, this will be the one I would like it to look like. Those rims look amazing on it

Apparently Diamond Racing wheels are the new flat black...

Seriously though, I was interested in a set until I found out they weren't available in a lighter-weight alloy... they're steel racing wheels intended for dirt track use, plain and simple. They are HEAVY. 15x8s are 20 lbs a piece without tires. I saw another post on a VW forum quoting the 13x7s at 17.5 pounds each. Evidently they're rather soft as well... lots of stories of bending them off-track out there.

They do look cool on certain cars, but I feel they're just one more automotive faux pas that will be gone soon enough. There are too many damned good wheel options out there to throw away money on cheap, heavy steelies intended only for off-road use.

that is damn heavy.

I think it looks amazing. And I love it for the absurd engineering put into it.

Too many competing lines and angles for me, but I love it no less.

OoOOOOhHhhHH LF-A

Exactly why I love it. The car's a mess, but the mess makes it all so great. It looks fantastic in red!

Can I get the original sized pic of the TA22?

In for high res as well. Might encourage me to scrape the rust off the one in my garage...

Here it is

Sweet Carina.

To add to the diamond racing trend.

unlike the miata that thing would have the torque to still spin the wheels.

...Into a tree.

 

[Time_Attack]

I hate you. So much.

...Into a tree.

...Backwards.

 

[Time_Attack]

much more fun than under steering into a tree in a civic.

 

[WeinerSchnitzel]

Nice one.

I love that white MR-2. It's almost perfect. Just take off the spoiler and add one of those snorkel air intakes.

Or into a ditch.

Only fwd Civics understeer.

I like them. Sue me.

 

[speed junkie]

I searched around but could'nt find the original, non-edited version. I guess I was correct to assume that most would think of this photo when I mentioned the ditch

 

[Bram Turismo]

Those MR2s are sick!

I've never seen an MR2 looking as good as that white one, it's perfect! I especially dig that "I'm with stupid" sticker on it.

Talking about civics brings out Accord pictures?
I remember that guy being photoshopped to death by so many forums.

 

[Time_Attack]

it doesn't matter what type of honda it is the owners are all the same.

Only fwd Civics understeer.

Nice rear sway + stiff rear springs = lots of oversteer in a FWD car.

it doesn't matter what type of honda it is the owners are all the same.

Which is?

Here's my addition for the day. A stock MX-5.

....what's this?

 

[Time_Attack]

it needs dealer plates. I'd roll around with them on on a saturday night murking fools at every stop light.
