how much u bought? the model i target today is RM1050 for 16", a bit shock when heard... but i dun like the colour of the rim is sprayed on, not the natural metal colour... scare those sprayed colour wont so tahan...

aiks... :p
 
my opinion, kr is the lightest but i heard they are easily dented compare to advanti and kspeed

kspeed is tough but heavy except for the LE37 model 8 holes

advanti is the best bet among all
 
oh...didnt know kr lightest...but then...k speed is the heaviest among all...but mayb more durable...mayb advanti is just gam gam? light n also quite durable?hehehe

i wan shiok when carrying the KR, i was WTF, so light, :eek: ...

but dunno it durability, that's y open a thread to discuss...

anywhere, how about enkei? i saw a model, 5 spoke was selling 10xx for 16", gold colour 1... i tot enkei should be quite expensive right?

:confused:
 
i think should be local enkei or thailand enkei.......thats y so cheap.....even my fren saw a set 16" enkei....at 800++ not more than 900......but the style is a bit old la....

bought long time edi.. last time i inspect, no dents.. just some scratches
btw your price is quite cheap for 16"
 
SSW from thailand if im not mistaken.. a bit heavy when compared to those taiwan made
but the HTC-016 is very very nice!
 
previously i was using KR.. after kena lubang few times.. dented.. forced to change rims lor.. now i'm using K-speed.. so far so good lor.. nothing happen.. but i think the weight r almost the same la.. mayb next time i go to my fren's shop n ask him to measure the weight of these 2 rims.. c how much diff.. haha..
n i think advanti is a better choice.. but cant find my size.. :P

ic... thanks for the comment...

btw, wat size u using? 19" ar? :D
 
Last time when i bought my k-speed in klang, the guy told me regardless
whether it's k-speed, advanti or even KR it's almost the same as they come from
the same factory in taiwan. Just the name different and maybe the quality as well.
Something like JRD too, comes with other branding. As for me i'm using k-speed. so
far so good for the past 1 year using it. Kena potholes and bumps but still no dent at all.
:-) Happy user with taiwan rim so far & definately no no to some local brand. just my 2cent!
