: Hey, Discount Tire Direct, any chance on the Rennen?
closer9 09-01-2009, 08:17 PM I found the Rennen while browsing wheels last night, and see it's only available in one size/bolt pattern. I assume this is a new wheel? If so, will it be available for the Malibu? Even better if it were available for the Malibu in white... :)

That was a clean looking wheel but it is no longer in production.
closer9 09-02-2009, 08:24 PM Well, poopie! I find it so hard to find wheels these days. I'm just not into the really busy, covered in rivets look. I'm a Torq Thrust/Cragar SS kinda guy (but can't figure out why the FWD Cragar's are so hideous)... I'm kinda thinking about just painting my steelies white, and forgetting it. Spend my money on my old toys...

Hmmm... That's actually not too bad. Probably not something I would go for, but I do kinda like it. Hard to tell though, are the larger spokes directional?
I decided to browse your site again...
If it weren't for the rivets the Liquid Metal Wire would be a possible choice.
The MB Drifter is another nice looking wheel, but I kinda think if the Voxx Monza were available with white instead of black I might go for those...

No there not directional.
It seems the black colored wheels are all the rage these days. I do remember when a white wheel was popular. If your looking for a white painted wheel you might have to paint them yourself or have a shop do it for you. Then you could pick the exact shade of white your looking for.
closer9 09-06-2009, 10:18 PM how about the Konig Heatsink?

Malibu Glow 09-07-2009, 12:39 PM Usually if you don't have much of a selection on wheel choice the only thing else is trial and error. Main thing to think about is offset and bolt pattern of the car and finding wheels that match.

closer9 09-09-2009, 07:25 PM Hmmm... I kinda like all of those, especially the Voxx MG3... Just not sure what I want to do yet. However, I know I want to stay with 17", so I don't have to get new tires yet. Although, I'm kinda tempted to just wait till I need tires, and get 18's...
