I sort of like them, though I'm not sure how 18s would look on a camry. I like the spokes, though.

are those focals? or focuz? you know, the ad with francine "tid O biddies" dee? anywho, those look good enough for 18s that are 400 w/tires.

Fresco Bob · 01-28-2003, 10:48 PM

There hot and the right price.

***Ratko*** · 01-29-2003, 11:43 AM

they look heavy enough to anchor a boat, and from the looks of them, most of the mass is on the outter edges (

: )

but if you dont give a flying fvck about that kinda shit, and you like the way they look, then by all means...

Bigshoguns · 01-29-2003, 12:05 PM

yeah Ratko they are heavy. 27.3oz.

***BLUEMEANIE*** · 01-29-2003, 01:49 PM

Heavy... but they look dope.

CamryPunk · 01-29-2003, 02:18 PM

Focals aren't really known for quality. I worked at a wheel shop and we would stay away from them.

If you want a good wheel for a good price, check out 5zigen wheels. They're not as cheap (as in price) as the Focals, but they're better quality than the focal wheels.

Either way, get what YOU like... not what others tell ya. :wink:

yikes!!! :roll:

how many bolts does this one take?

j/k... just means that it has a universal bolt pattern.
still need to find out if it's the correct bolt pattern and spacing.

Exel? Unfourtuantly I have never heard of them... probably one of those "made in taiwan" companies... I would probably stay away from them. But then again, I try to get the better quality products. If you like the way they look, then go for it. Otherwise stay with the companies that are "known". Just a little advice. Good luck.
