The_young_once Neutral Newbie October 18, 2007 Share October 18, 2007 i think most of us definition of sports rim is more accurately "alloy rims" as specified in many car dealers ads eg, freebies : alloy rims, remote alarm etc..... alloy rim basically are not steel rims, steel rims are those on the old crown taxis, or on cars usually covered with a plastic wheel cover (or hub cap, or wheel cap etc, this one also many names) im also on steel rims, my reasons: - i park carelessly, scrape here and there, dont want heart pain if scratch expensive sport rims - i only point A-B driver, so handling and what-knot is irrelevant to me, stock is good enough - stock tire size, cheaper when replacing tire - last but not least, i just cant be bothered Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeobh 4th Gear October 18, 2007 Share October 18, 2007 Try telling a Jap , American or a EC guys about sport rims, they will be laughing like mad men.To them there is no such thing as sport rims - only Singkie call them sport rims. Actually they are just decorative alum alloy rims. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
