Hey Id like to start by saying that Im new to the forums and new to my xfire. Of course being a teen Im looking to mod. my xfire. I already have my sound system down (2 rockford fosgate 10 p3 shallows and components) but Im looking for new rims now. I was wondering what aftermarket rims would look good on my xfire (2007 Black Base). I was thinking of something like the konig hotswaps or similar design. I was also wondering if anyone has powder-coated the stock rims what they would look like and feedback. Please post pictures of your xfires rims or others you like. I appreciate it.

 

Welcome to the forum. Have you tried the search feature yet? There are lots of threads that discuss this already posted. Here is a thread that has 2 of my favorites. Mandrus Millenium and Lexani LX10's.

Thanks...sorry if I posted in the wrong spot or anything Im still getting used to the forum.

 

You posted in the right spot. No worries. There is a lot of good information in here. Spend some time going through the posts, and getting used to using the search function. You will be amazed at what you find.

By the way, what a great car to have at 16.

I live about an hour and a half south of you.

 

Yea it is a great car...me and my dad got it right around my six months...I was fortunate to be 16 the same time my dad had his mid-life crisis lol.

 

ROFLMFAO Thats funny!

 

Just took a look at the link on wheels. The first wheel on there was a Schott wheel. Dave makes some great looking wheels. I don't want to break any rules here and I'm not soliciting at all. But I own a hot rod shop in Indy, we sell a ton of custom wheels, There are so many to choose from you can drive yourself nuts looking at different wheel styles.
Here is a link to our web site if you care to look at several different custom wheel mfg. If you have questions please feel free to ask.

Yea you guys make some nice rims however they're a bit out of my price range...I know those are normal priced but Im cheap lol.

 

I've found the wheels I want to use on mine.
19x8.5
19x11
and they come off a rather famous italian car.

Just need to work out the spacer issue, as i need to go from 66.5 to 57.1 center core, or see if i can have the wheels machined

 

Hey speaking of powdercoated. I run chromed stockers on My black 'vert! looks great but I am now looking at other options two of my favorites are both by Mandrus I will stick with chrome for my black 'vert but Im torn between the sporty multi spoke of the millenium and the clean and open lines of the mannheim. (the manufactuerers that make rims with the correct offset are primarily limited to german companies.) and the 113 lug pattern is a little more challenging as well. Good luck with bargin hunting for rims. I would look at rims on this website.

Happy hunting and best wishes Herman and Laurie.

 

The lug pattern is 112. I like both of the Mandrus patterns that you mentioned. I am a bit more partial to the millenniums. Chrome on black.... can't go wrong there.
