Daily reminder if you don't use OEM wheels you're a faggot who should kill themselves for using gaudy and non-manufacturer spec.

Manufactures don't necessarily use the best quality. They still have to consider cost. Also saged.

I´d rather have lighter, wider wheels.

If matching rear and fronts fixes understeer then why would I use OEM

wahhhhh wahh I can't justify or afford spending the money on wheels worth buying, so nobody else should buy them either!!
>>
>>16935762
I'd like to get some new wheels for my car but can't be bothered to learn what all the specifications mean. I go to eBay and there's so many different versions of the same wheel and I'm lost. No idea which one would work with my car.

Basically I stay with OEM wheels because it's the safe choice. Yeah...

All the people posting in here about justifying buying aftermarket wheels: just remember that the resale value of your car, irrefutably, without exception, decreases if you try to sell it with aftermarket wheels. I've never seen a car increase in value because it has non-oem parts on it, unless it's a thirty year old car turned into an actual race or rally car.
>>
>>16936586
A savvy person would keep the factory wheels in the garage or something for future resale. When car shopping, I go out of my way to ignore any car with aftermarket shit on it.
>>
>>16935762
I have C5 wheels on my '99 Camaro. It handles better, accelerates better, and the only reason GM didn't put these wheels on this car to begin with is because they sandbagged the F-bodies to protect the Corvette.
>>
But they're boring tho.

I really dislike this trend of manufacturers using black paint on part of the wheel.
I like them all metal look, or all black but nothing mixed together.
>>
>>16936789
funny you should say that, because I absolutely love it. I think I just enjoy the contrast more than anything. if it was up to me thought, the metal would be painted white and black left in place on the white BRZ.

Can't counter anyone's argument so you tell people to fuck off and call them cucks. Are you old enough to have a license? Give me one (1) proper reason why all aftermarket wheels are bad.

Is this thread made by the same frothing-at-the-mouth autismo that camps in the honda/toyota generals making paragraph hate posts whenever someone upgrades from 14" OEM wheels to 15" aftermarket?

Someone put this rabid dog out of their misery already so they stop shitting up threads.
>>
>>16937574
pretty sure it is. I guess he's butthurt he can't afford a set of wheels over top of his monthly lease payments
>>
>>16937571
Manufacurers pay lots of money into R&D, aftermarket shit wheels are generally heavier, gaudier, and are less stable. Checkmate. Now kindly GTFO my thread.
>>16937574
Proud to be everything you hate you fucking autsitic faggot cuck.
>>
>>16937583
implying that wheel companies don't invest money into R&D as well. While there are plenty of shitty wheel companies there are also many that make proper wheels. You probably bought some cheap imitation wheels that broke on you after driving over a pothole and are now all butthurt. Make me leave your thread boiyo

You know how I know you're lying? Because everyone thinks they're OEM wheels and posted it here the other day with some compliments. But I know you need to defend your autistic position so you'll say that regardless.

Anyways I like them and don't care what some fucking loser on 4chan thinks.
>>
>>16937666
not him but I personally don't think it's worth it to buy a set of wheels for a sonata. Save up and buy a car worth putting them on. Or if not buy the wheels and keep them later after you get rid of the Kia, because I'm assuming you don't like it (if you would why would you be here in the first place?)

There are nice aftermarket wheels and there are nice OEM wheels.

The cool thing about OEM wheels is that MOST OF THE TIME they are one of a kind - as in they were made one for specific years/trims of a specific car for a particular manufacturer. There might be other ones that look kind of similar or reminiscent, but that's fairly uncommon.

Actually, mixing and matching OEM wheels sometimes is more amusing/fun than just buying aftermarket wheels.

It doesn't look fine, his car looks like it's ready to off road. Looks oddly proportioned. It should be an inch or two bigger to fill the the wheel wells.

I tend to agree with OP. Most aftermarket wheels look cheap and nasty, especially on older classics. That said, I have the same wheels as OP on my car and within 12 months of buying the car new, the paint had started peeling off them. Mazda agreed to replace the wheels under warranty.

There's nothing wrong with Enkei's - they make OEM wheels as well mid-range aftermarket wheels. They judy don't make many (if any) $2000-3000 forged alloys or exotic carbon fiber wheels.
