My brother has linea corse and it cracked about 3 times already.. he sent it to shop and nothing.

He contacted one of the vendors on here who sold it to him told him that they couldn't do anything about it..

Here's the original thread about that http://myg37.com/forums/picture-shar...-rotors-5.html

The driver ran over an oil patch in the rain and lost control.

its funny that both the linea course and chikara wheels have the same sizes and same offsets......i think they are the same wheel to be honest......

b/w those 2, i would choose the Linea's, for 2 reasons...

1) because they are man sized...19"
2) they have better offsets...

Best pricing on XXR wheels is a seller on Ebay sgmotoring

The XXR 962 wheels that I have are rock solid..I curb'd the crap out of a rear inner lip and the wheels are fine. Going on 3yrs now.

Why dont you just save up for a real set of wheels than kid yourself with getting "temporary" ones... unless you love wasting money

not kidding my self, if wasnt spending the "other" funds on motor etc etc then i would go buy 2500-4k wheels but i have other priorities in mind right now. Wheels are the last piece to the puzzle so i want something to "hold me over" till i get what i want....Then these wheels will be my winter wheels that way i dont have to change coilver settings etc etc...alignment can stay the same...lil things like that...

Save the money and get brand name wheels, if they crack, bend or break, that more money out of your pocket than just buying brand name wheels. Always remember, you get what you pay for...


Quick Reply: XXR 521 wheels??? Linea course Wheels???
