Slater Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 I love the RWD guys, cause they get to play with nice deep dished wheels. The look is hawt.Anyways, I am thinking of getting these for my black wagon:They are 17x7 with a 40 offset.My questions are:1. Will I rub?2. Do I need spacers?3. Is chrome too bling blau over the top?DTD has a painted version of the same wheel, but the chrome gives the illusion of a deeper lip because it reflects.Has anyone ever seen these wheels up close?Opinions?- Slater Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prasamin Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 you'll be fine with a 40mm offset!plus, 17x7 will probably stay clear of the fender liner as long as you're running some 215/45 or 215/40!i'm not big on chrome though....they don't have a darkened chrome look or something?

Slater Posted July 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 i'm not big on chrome though....they don't have a darkened chrome look or something?No, but I was thinking about it more and I think the silver one will look better. I can paint everything but the lip anthracite like the stock Titans, and keep the lip polished. Also, I would use a Volvo center cap.Here's the silver one: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asinine Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 ^^^ = sex!I don't mind the chrome, but that polish/brushed look is way hotter, and the lip is still chromed to give the deeper appearance!NIOCE! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slater Posted July 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Dunno, I like the ones that trav posted more. The mb motoring rev wheels just seem cheap to me.←Well, WSs are nice, but I like the MB wheel ebcause it's a little more "Euro" looking. The WS looks "JDM" to me, which I don't want any part of with my car.I think the WS looks like a stock Volvo wheel minus the rivets (which I hate on an obvious 1-piece wheel). If I get these, slap on the srock center caps, and paint everything but the lip, it will cover those rivets up and shouldn't look too cheap IMO.

Deltablade Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Yeah, I can't imagine this looking right on a Volvo. Looks like something you might see on a Honda or other Japanese make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veneficus Posted July 29, 2005 Report Share Posted July 29, 2005 Oh yeah, just another note. Rob (V Tuning850) ran MB Rev's on his 850 and had no problems with them... they were the 15" version but they worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
