**OneYoungGun** · 07-09-2007, 10:05 AM

id go with Flik or asa

**CINCIN** · 07-09-2007, 10:07 AM

they are gunmetal with a polished lip...and i think the flik's are painted too...

the fliks were my choice till someone

started gettin me all hyped on thick five spokes

**Broke_Two_Foci** · 07-09-2007, 10:13 AM

asa's for the win

**COSitsWORTHit** · 07-09-2007, 10:19 AM

Congrats on the new whip.... Go with the ASA's.

158hp?! Wasn't the 1st gen only like 100hp?

Whoa....just looked up the specs. 158hp is respectable. I'm suprised Toyota upped the power.

**focuspl99** · 07-09-2007, 10:28 AM

flik ftw

**CINCIN** · 07-09-2007, 11:42 AM

yeah flik's! and they are the least expensive of the bunch! i read somewhere that they are rebadged team dynamics, rotas, and some other wheels...

**LamarWH** · 07-09-2007, 06:46 PM

3100lbs FTL.

**CINCIN** · 07-09-2007, 07:38 PM

yeah but its still about 19 lbs per horse...i dont care too much...still faster than my focus and im lookin forward to makin it handle better and make some more noise

**richsilver** · 07-09-2007, 08:05 PM

I like the ASA's for the wheels.

Guess I haven't been paying attention,the hp gain makes me consider one since the wife really likes them.
How are you doing with the dash layout?Having everything centered like that worries the oldtimer in me.lol

rich

**CINCIN** · 07-09-2007, 08:06 PM

**CINCIN** · 07-09-2007, 09:58 PM

wow! that is insane...but i meant the engine

i just have an 8" bazooka left over from the focus for the bumps

**BlckXenonZx3** · 07-09-2007, 11:28 PM

ASA or sportmax. I'd be original and try sporting some asa five spoke dish action.
Meshies or webs fit a focus or other hatches but the Lunch Box with webs just looks retarded.

Look how the sport max fat fives make the roof line appear to be lower from a design standpoint. Once you get around to doing some suspension work it's going to look even more at home on top of them.

**dario14** · 07-09-2007, 11:48 PM

nice lunch box

j/k i like it looks cool and im surre funn to drive

**CINCIN** · 07-10-2007, 07:54 AM

i was gonna go some interior shots yesterday but it was raining all night after i got out of work...maybe today...

so i have a buyer for the foci rims!! wo hoo!!

but now to the sport max's...

the plain silver ones? http://buywheelstoday.com/images_products/2152.jpg
or the gunmetal ones? http://buywheelstoday.com/images_products/2151.jpg
they also have gold..but i cant do gold on a silver car...

**BlckXenonZx3** · 07-10-2007, 08:56 AM

Gunmetal or black ftw

1st gen = 109hp @ 2450lbs
2nd gen = 158hp @ 3100lbs

Not exactly a good trade off.

I just cant wrap my mind around the new xB...its just soooooooo 1st gen xB and PT cruiser like...gleesh!

**CINCIN** · 07-10-2007, 06:46 PM

yeah...but its not a pt cruiser

Do you have room for roommate then? I want fun cars like the Fiesta and other microhatches instead of a bloated rehash of a car that I originally liked but now think that it's lost its soul and should have another name

Oddly enough I despise the original XB. I really think it's far to "let's be progressive by regressing" and not enough of modern styling. Apparently they subscribed to my beliefs becaus the new XB has hit the nail on the head with ugly beautiful.
