    I love Daytonas.

    The ones on that 911 are the E36 M3.

    Like they say, the best styles come back around...

    would prefer to see actual pics than renderings.

    but those all look suprisingly good on the newer supercars.

    I wonder how those Lamborghini ones would look on my Mustang...

    Then again, they probably cost more than said Mustang.

    i believe the kids these days would use the word "meh" to describe the first two, but the GTA knockoffs on the Porsche are beautiful..

    1. Meh
    2. Seck-say
    3. Meh, looks like a not so sexy BBS RS.

    I wonder how the Ferrari wheels would look on my foxbody, and more importantly, what they weigh.

    If you're gonna hang them on a pony car, you gotta go with the Ferrari style wheels. I think they'd look pretty good.

    They look fantastic on old BMWs too. For example:

    I don't know what's wrong with all of you, but clearly the ones on the Ferrari are the best.

    Look like Ronals with a fat lip. Me like.

  • Feb. 7, 2012 2:56 p.m. Joshua HalfDork

    They only come in 18, 19 and 20. FTL!

    I want those Ferrari ones in a 15 on my Miata!

    That's disappointing... i wanted them for my Miata as well, but was willing to go up to 17s if i had to.

    18s are NOT happening, though.

    Nice, but Enkei classics are probably more in my price range.

    If you are willing to run adapters you could just pick up a set of autostrada modenas. They are just the same as the old Compomotive/HRE/Cromodoras.

    I just love that all of these "older" (ha! 80's!!!) wheels are suddenly cool again and being re-made. (Konig B-Bomb, Enkei mesh, now HRE's).

    The Ferrari ones are definitely the winners! I need a set for my 944...

    WIN! Where's the group buy?

    I like the first two, but the ones on the 911 are just too giant for my taste. I guess that look just doesn't translate well into larger sizes for me.

    I bought a set of 15" E30s for my rabbit, best wheel ever.

    I want Porsche to build me a 991 4.0 liter RS America with those wheels.

    Yes...Please...

    Hmm, I dunno. I think they look a bit odd in such large sizes, with such low profile tyres.
