Ruff Rims???
I know almost nothing about aftermarket rims other then I want to purchase a set. I have looked at a ton of websited to try and find what I like. Im not looking for anything fancy or all chromed out. I want something that will stand out a little but still kinda have a factory look to them.
Since I dont know anything about what brands are good and which arent I strickly went only with how the rims look and after thousands of looks I found these 2 that I really like alot but Id like to hear what you guys think and if anyone has any first hand knowledge of Ruff Rims This is the one Im leaning to the most https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/-t.../s640/R353.jpg https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-V.../s640/R357.jpg |
I dont like either but the second one is very bad! is the the same ruff that dose porches?
|
1st looks like volk ce28n minus a spoke, looks good to me. 2nd meh... everyone has 5 spokes
ruff racing is not a racing wheel by any stretch, more of a replica dealer for show if you ask me like varrstoen or rota |

You just love to post 100% on topic extremely helpful posts in both of my threads today. I wish I had the aray of endless useful knowledge as you. I also wish I had the time to just post mindless complete off topic BS instead of being useful or actually doing something else possibly constructive with my time |

Thats one of my problems with knowing which aftermarket rims are quality or not. I cant tell that they look cheap, I dont have the eye for that yet. This is pretty much the first time ive ever looked at aftermarket rims at all so I have alot to learn. Even if they look cheap its the style that I really like so if they are indeed cheap then I just need to find a good company that makes that rim as close as possible |
Generally, though not always, crappy aftermarket wheels are heavy. For 18x8" anything over 23-ish lbs is crappy. Better to bide your time and get a good set used than a bad set new.

usually companies that really work for weight savings on a wheel will go to every length to post the weight of the wheel. If you're having a hard time finding the weight of a certain wheel then there is a reason for that ie they went low cost casting instead of forging or enkei's special casting |

if you like the first pic (the xd9's) you can see how they look on my ride, just look for the "calling all work wheels" thread.
I actually just finished talking to a dealer about those rims and hes putting together a package and pricing for me as I type this |

But, as goddesshunter pointed out, they are way out of "Ruff Racing" league. |

Although beautiful and far superior, if you started in the RUFF price range, I doubt you will be happy about price of any of those wheels.

Im learning and it seems as great minds think alike. That link you posted is one of the 2 companies I am currently seekimg package deals and/or basic pricing. They seem like amdecent place for fair pricing. Thanks buddy! |
Never heard about Ruff until now, and they look very nice.
|
I would check out tire rack, they have a massive selection and you can view them on your car. Once you find a set you like do a search for that wheel to find the best price or PM a few vendors on this site.
