OSUALUM78 · 01-30-2009, 12:40 AM

Provided that the wheel comes with the option,

Would you put on knockoffs or no?

2k4mach · 01-30-2009, 12:44 AM

no.

mach1 03 · 01-30-2009, 12:54 AM

It depends on the wheels. Ford makes the fr500 wheels but they do not make them in 18x10 or black chrome, which is why I went with a nock off. But if it is wheels that just look like the real thing than I would go name brand.

DanB · 01-30-2009, 01:16 AM

nope never the real thing or nothing

y not? can't figure there is but so many wheel companies in the world who acutually make wheels and the rest just distribute them. brand names are ok but i like value. knocks on street car yes, on drag/circuit/high hp street car, no

Mistergou · 01-30-2009, 10:38 AM

Well depends on wheels, if I can get real wheels for resonable price ill get them, but I'm poor college student, so usually go with knockoffs an save money for go fast goodies!

Nor Cal Mach · 01-30-2009, 10:50 AM

I can't put fake rims on my car. I would rather not have wheels for a while as I save up.

I meant knockoffs as in the 3 pronged dealy that is mounted to the center cap.

For example, Raceline GT wheels can come with knockoff or not

With

Without

mach1 03 · 02-02-2009, 11:30 PM

in that case no. i just turned 19 so i don't have a clue what that stuff was called back in the day lol.

DanB · 02-03-2009, 12:02 AM

search works most of the time

03BluMach · 02-06-2009, 12:57 AM

i would run them on a set of vintage halabrand type wheels like eleanor had in gone in sixty seconds. i thing the work well with the right car and wheel combo.
