Hey dude, those caffeines look NICEEE on your I30. I have the exact same rim on my black 95 max, and it looks real good. Great choice, and don't let anyone talk you down. Now, we BOTH need suspension to make that wheel gap go byebye !!



For anyone who doesn't know, 17x8 Caffeines only weigh 20 lbs. which is considered light and good for performance. They look tight-*** too.

Why am I postin' this here ? To tell all the Caffeine haters to back off and to educate people about one phat rim.

That's good too.

?-18lbs. is considered very light and great for racing

19-25lbs. is considered light and good for racing

25+lbs. Is heavy and performance will suffer.

Keep in mind you have 18's so the rotating mass will be greater than our's, slowing you down a tad more. But, the sweet look of 18's will make you feel better.

Hey whats up! Thanks a lot for the compliments on the rims. I love the way they look too. I really had a hard time deciding between those and the verdicts or chrome wheels but im glad I made the choice I did tho as they go really well with the tint (also new) and the color of the car. Dont worry no one can talk me down on these rims as I always really wanted them and I got them for a good price ($650 w/new tires). Anyway, you have any pics of your car?

Yea dude they match very well!

I took some pics a while ago, but in this florida sun the glare was so great that the rims looked white and shined too much ! And I can't take any right now cuzz my max is in the body shop getting surgery on it. (I got in a fender bender) BUT I will definatally hook you up with some after it gets done ! Do you have any more pics of your I30 ?

BTW, man, goin' from a Max to an explorer is HARSH! I miss my maxima !
