I'm not going to bother spending money on any wheels that arn't CCW/Fikse/HRE etc. I'm happy with the Z06's and I feel anything like the HP's are a waste of money considering I already have decent wheels.
Let me see what I can find or if I can come up with some pictures. There are some 17 and 18" FM/10's in the F/S section to (not mine, lol).

This is what some of the tips might look like, these are a little smaller than the 4" clones, but you get the idea as far as the general look. I think 4" clones would look better than dumped, anything else, I'd just dump it.



Heres Bad Blu Formula's car with FM/5's. I know you mentioned FM/10's but I couldn't find any good pictures.

Hm, Thanks!

Those FM5's do look great. If I get them, I'll hold off to find a set of 18x11's.

Those tips do look great. How much of a hassle is it to run TD's out the back?

*edit* what do you search on Ebay to find corsa clones? I'm getting nothing really.

TD's out the back isn't bad, just requires a little imagination to get it to fit without banging etc. The only reason I like 17's is because of the extra sidewall, I need all the traction I can get, but 18's do look better, I agree.

Heres some:

The pic of the car in that auction does not have the 4" tips on it, they are 3.5's.

Thank you. I definitely hear you on the sidewall issue.

No big deal though; if I really want to break my rear end, I'll just put the ET Streets on.

I just got the 4" clones on mine. I love them. They were a bit tough to get to fit right though

Can't beat $40 shipped
