I'm excited to announce that thejdm is now updated to the latest phpbb 3.2 software. You may notice the site is now mobile friendly but with the upgrade comes some hiccups. theGarage, theGallery, theArcade are no longer supported. In due time the developers should be working to release the modifications to work on the new software. #LetsMakeForumsGreatAgain

change in plans. i was going to go baller status and spend 1500-2000 on wheels but i need to get my priorties straight. i got a lot of bills to pay and need to go back to school. just wondering what people think. by getting these it would save me lots of $$$. and i rather have mugens than rotas.

its either gonna be the mugens or some other wheels that i can get for around $500 just for wheels. my budget is like 700-800 wheels and tires....the mugens will be cheaper than that. maybe ill pick up a set of those buddy clubs. i dont know haha

Never really liked those style of Mugen wheels, to me they just look odd. Ive had Rota's before, never had any complaints with them, good wheels for the price. If you end up curbing one they are alot easier to get then rare Mugen wheels as well. Just my $.02.

The Mugens look Good. They'd look way better with different tires and the car slammed.

I never personally liked those wheels, but they look pretty good on the DA. :up: You have a decent chance at a good resale when you have the cash for whatever other wheels you want too.

haha i wish....those are soooo hard to find same with the center caps....there is actually a guy with brand new cf48's like 4 hours away from me in the mugen boxes with covers and center caps! but he wants $1100 which is reasonably but outta my budget
