Hey,
I'm planing to get new set of wheels. Black ones, preferably.
I found these
They are 17x7.5 Akuma N-005's
What I'm curious is how the cam going to look with black 17's. I've seen black 18's here on the forum they look awesome. Would 17 be alright? (I can't get 18's, roads here are crap)
My cam is black, dropped, and body kit is on the way this spring.
Any thoughts? Thanks.
EDIT: XON Akuma N-005

Hmm... I'm digging the nice chrome lip, but imo, the black would look better if it wasn't so glossy. Also might look better if the whole inside of the rim was black, instead of the chrome circle in between.
As for size, go for the 17's, unless you want your rims bent.

+45 will rub (rear) this is what is said by most ppl, but i belive they are rubbing with 235 tyres, not the wheel itself as i have 7.5" +40 and there is more then 5mm of strut clearance..
get +42 or less.
push for +35 on the rear for extra lip/dish and +40/45 front =)

theyre just as crap as every other cheap wheel ever made =)
ask the store if it has a load rating stamp or cast into it.
you want 580kg or more.

I got some updates! I called up that place, and they said rims are about 20lb, and load rating is about 2000lb. The guy didn't exactly say it is STAMPED on the rim it self.
Is it a go? I'm kind of worried that nobody knows anything about this brand.
EDIT:
Just found these rims on ebay, DRAG DR11. Company is legit. Anyone heard of these?
