they are off of a totalled nissan nx2000 we found in a junkyard. it hit with it's front end and caught fire, but the wheels were fine. 230 bucks. the tires were shot though.

*note: ws_ftp is really screwing my pictures up when i upload them for some reason (stupid beta version), so this picture looks like crap. it gets the point across though, sorry.

Looks good Monsoon. I saw an SSB race car with those rims on it last year (don't ask me how it was legal in SSB). I thought it looked great. However, I still think the stock rims from a b14 se-r look even better on our Classics.

I just got fresh shots of my car developed. I'll post them as soon as I get them on photopoint.

I seem to be having technical difficulty posting my picture. It's too damn big (the picture, that is)

You should look around for B14 wheels. I just found another set for $100. Anyone need a set of B13 Sentra wheels? I have an extra set of those too. http://laf.cioe.com/~benbobbo/NonCGI/smile.gif

Bring it on buddy, bring it on. You know I have a B13 at home that just NEEDS a set of 200SX wheels. Calum should find a set for the REX, it looked badass with them on there.

They are Mim Pescara wheels. 15X7. They're a dead ringer for Borbet type T, though. Got them CHEAP from Discount Tire Direct. $60 each. I actually didn't like the way they looked on the car until I got the Ground Controls. It's only lowered ~1 inch.

A deal I'm still kicking myself for passing up was a set of near-new '99 SE-Limited wheels on eBay a good while ago. A junkyard was selling them, and really didn't value them highly - in the picture the rims were just hanging outdoors on an old wood fence.

So, Eric isn't going to tell?

A friend of mine works at a junk yard and they have 2 B14 SE-Rs. Between the 2 cars, I have 4 wheels, maybe 6. They also had a few SR20s, but he said they were asking $1000 for each. He said they sell them all the time for that price http://laf.cioe.com/~benbobbo/NonCGI/rolleyes.gif I saw a B15 Sentra, but it was only a GXE. I had visions of a roller SR20 in my car *sigh*

thanks buttnugget. i don't want the car to look flashy, sooner or later she'll be sporiting a lot more modification wise but i'm keeping it stock for 1 autocross season to stay in stock class and get some experience.

ohh i'd help you on the nx2000 rims, but i got the last set in the kansas city area i do believe. i know of a set of classic se-r wheels (actually 2, but a friend is buying 1 of the sets) but they aren't in the best condition. http://laf.cioe.com/~benbobbo/NonCGI/frown.gif
