evo rims

yea my stock rims are all screwed up, i got pictures of them posted with my vehicle information stuffs (in case you guys wanna see the damage)

my front right rim got screwed over by a massive pot hole

and the rear right rim has scratches on it due to curbing.

mind you none of the damage was done by me, but my father whome wanted to drive the car and didn't know how good the car turns.

Anyhow I just need stronger rims, any suggestions?

Uh, no rim is going to withstand hitting curbs. Maybe another solution to hitting potholes and curbs is in order.

heh, i don't plan on ever curbing the car or driving over any pot holes. I believe i've been good about it..

although i should expect the worst when i gave the keys to my father who already threw back a few and wanted to show off my toy to his friends.

I still need new rims though.... i haven't been driving the car much like that
I just dunno what to buy for it.
Any good looking/ strong rims would be nice. Price isn't a Huge factor.
thanks

Yeah Hein, if you're looking to offset your costs for buying new rims, I'd be willing to buy the remaining 2 good rims from you.

Grab yourself a nice set of Volk TE-37 or any other Rays wheels...light, strong wheel, perfect for the Evo.

hey you said price wasn't a huge factor, right?

man that would be sweet. I love the te-37's in bronze depending on the color of your car. The TE-37's are so dope.

heh, yeah seeing as how all the money i make is goin into the car.
Money really isn't that big of a problem.
I'll look into that, thanks for the info

As for the guys wanting my other rims. I kinda want to keep them.
I'm a freak like that, I even kept my Evo VIII floor mats in my room so they won't get dirty.
