Scott Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 The jade r's also don't look that aggresive in 18". You think so? I honestly don't think there is much difference. These are 18's..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 Lovely work by the photographer and the photoshopper, not to mention to Lee's Mrs. We might have a candidate for the next supra club calendar very good photoshop work and really appreciate this! i really am stuck on a desision tho! the black looks more aggressive and suits the darker colour paint the multi look showey and would suit the paint on sunny days its more goldish i have uk brakes fitted so will fill the wheels nicely and as ive said a few times before i am thinking of a half carbon trd spoiler or im starting to think mayb a carbon bonnet and boot with no spoiler to keep the black going but thats some thing thats just popped into my head before i get shot down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 IMO they look less agressive on a black car?! every pic of the jade r i have seen on a black car i think that because they blend in? might just be me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 A little but the lighter and better quality the wheel the better it will handle. Basically a good set of 19's will drive better than a cheap heavy set of 18's:) are the jade r considered cheap and heavy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 They are cheap costing but they aren't heavy. The quality of them only comes into question due to the cost. There is a lot of snobbery when it comes to wheels, some comments are just as the quality is known, some aren't as they are only going on price. I don't have any issues with them at the moment, will need to wait and see though as problems don't often come aparent until many moons after purchase. They aren't made by wheel mania though, only contracted to sale by wheel mania. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L33 Posted August 23, 2009 Author Share Posted August 23, 2009 well considering there nearly 1k depending on size to buy i dont really see them as cheap but i have never bought wheel for a supra before what ever i do decide is it better to get 18 or 19s? full of problems me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 (edited) are the jade r considered cheap and heavy? They are cheap but i dont know what they weigh, my Advan RS weigh 8kg for reference.

Scott Posted August 23, 2009 Share Posted August 23, 2009 They are cheap but i dont know what they weigh, my Advan RS weigh 8kg for reference. They are heavier than that. My 19x10 weighs in at 10kg. 18's would obviously be lighter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can pay anything you want though. Jade R's are very cheap for what they are, in my opinion of course. They raved about the quality of them though so time will tell. Edit: By the way, 18" jade r's are just over £700 to buy with tyres. You must consider that to be very cheap surely?
