hey all,

this is my first post on ITRCA.

i just wanted some opinions on some mags.


i have a Jdm CW ITR, with the mugen kit.
i am interested in buying some BRONZE 17" Volk TE37's.

but im not sure if it would look good or not.
who likes the bronze on white car, and who likes the white on white car?

if anyone has pics, can u post them up please.

thanks

I happen to like the bronze rims personally, but i guess it's a pretty subjective question...

Later,

Hmmm, I like TE37s, but I think since you have mugenized your car, how about MF10s bronze???

i see what you are trying to say.
but i dont really like the mugen wheels, they dont look as clean as the TE37's

Indeed... I've seen that setup, and the Volk's do look good. I don't know if I'd go with 18's though. Seems too big for an R. Just my $.02.

This is all very subjective, but you asked for opinions, so I'll venture mine.

I've always felt the MF10 design was a little complicated.

I like the clean, simple designs like the Spoon SW388 and Volk TE37.

I also think 18" is too big for an ITR, unless it's mostly for show.

It's all subjective. :) Don't let us tell you what you like.

16'' in my opinion, is also too big.. :P

I like 15'' wheels on an ITR. :D

My old ITR w/ 15's :(

Speaking of Mugen Itrs, I just had some work done to my car over at Kingmotorsports and i witnessed the new mugen scca race car. It is a rsx with a type r engine in it (K20..) It is bad asss. I also Saw the mugen s2000 featured in Car and Driver and to top it off there was A white Skyline, R32. Pretty cool place/shop if you love cars. Plus people are cool and very reliable.

I think you mean SWC RSX, not SCCA. Too bad they didn't even start the Atlanta race. :cry:
