Default Need HELP an INPUT! about these Rims

Hey guys, need some help an input about these rims I'm looking to get. There Sevas S-Star. I'm looking to get rid of my HP's ... Anyone hear anything good or bad about these rims? I know they're discontinued so that's already a strike against them

Ones on the Supra, anyone know him? He's local

They're okay, just make sure you get an absolute deal on them due to they're discontinued and I think he's had them on Supra Forums for awhile and no one is biting. I'm not sure how much they cost to get them brand new but the price he was charging you could get new rims..

Post up a pic of your HP's so we can advise you on which we each like more. I personally am not to fond of to much chrome.

Trust me, the polished aluminum will require much more maintenance than a good chrome plated wheel to keep looking good. Not trying to convince you to keep/get chrome plated wheels, just commenting on maintenance.

I'm with you on that - both sets of my Zones have chrome plated lips, brushed centers and polished windows. The chrome plated lips are much easier to keep looking good compared to polished lips.
