Nice wheel. 22's for a trouble-free application. Are you thinking about lowering your ride as well? Will make it look nicer and give it a more aggressive stance. Will definitely have to lower it if you decide to run 24's.
 
I definitely plan to lower it maybe with some H&R springs. I don't know yet if I should by spacers as well to make the ride look more aggressive or future MODS since I do plan on doing BBK upgrade? do you guys think I should get spacers? should I get them different sizes for the fronts and the backs? I would really like to know if they are good quality rims.

Get them with the +15 offset then you won't need spacers and your lip will be deeper:tup:

Model - RVM-M635 - 22 x 8.5

Finish - Glossy Black w/Chrome Attachments & Machined Lip

Available Offsets - +15 +20 +35

Available Bolt Patterns
 
Quick search and I saw a few complaints so definitely research a little before buying ... more often then not, you get what you pay for. I've been burnt on cheap wheels before and it actually cost me more in the long run.
 
yeah I was going to say that those are a little on the cheap side check the weight and quality. the better brands have a rep and quality to uphold so just do a little research. By no doubt the design is nice I seen them color matched on a fx and looked really good.
 
Thanks a lot guys. I will be contacting the sellers company tomorrow to get some info. I really would like to know what quality material is it made out? of and how much they weight? what is better quality Metal or Aluminum for rims? and how much weight is too much for 22's?
 
those are nice looking wheels. $439 (636) or $599 (635) + $99 shipping via ebay (same seller). also, i tried with bing cashback and it may work for an additional 15%! (search "wii" on bing.com, click the wii ebay link on top, and search the wheel once on ebay).

So I followed-up with the rim selling company today and they indicated that those rims are made out of cast aluminum and they weigh about 33 to 34 pounds for the 22's. given this information would any of you still recommend that I buy or walk away from these rims?
 
33-34lbs cast aluminum for 22's? This seems wrong, probably weigh a bit more.

Here it shows a shipping weight of 50lbs, they probably weigh 43-44lbs http://mobileaudiogear.com/catalog/..._id=11&zenid=ecf5cca5bd519f11c7395018fdd2bde4

oops, jeff beat me to it, but I'd suspect that there just guessing at the 33-34lbs, I'd also suspect that there quite a bit heavier than that, & a lot of the weight is going to be at the outer circumference of the wheel too... there def cheap wheels but there cheap too... & heavy cast wheels will increase your chances of pot hole damage, tire bubbles & cracked rims, especially by the time you get up to the 24's...
