Are those the Atomic TS rims for Evo? I suspected they were weak... GPM rims like the ones on your other car are probably the best out there for Xmods.

i dont like them either. the plastic is really thin but i do like the ridge less rims, it greatly opens the tire selection.

no resistance? your whole post is blown to pieces right there. i have a PN s03 Racing motor that was full blast on a car that was sliding practically sideways...and you want to say there is no resistance? or as you put it...resistince. i liked them until it broke you jackass. it couldve been a defective rim from the factory...it couldve been a defective pressing. who knows? if you cant believe that ...you can believe 1 thing. you are a idiot that has the spelling of a 3rd grader.

btw.....you cant tell how thin it is by the picture on the website. nor can you tell the actual size of the rim by a picture. but hey.....thanks for your response , its good to know who the forum idiots are.

lo, you sure?

One of the Skyline guys here (R32 Skyline, yes its real) was trying to sell his old OEM Skyline wheel that broke lol.

I don't know why anyone would buy it, but it was a pretty neat thing to see. I'll look to see if they're still hosting up that pic.

btw, this guy isn't even a D1 or Formula D driver, he's a Canadian! :P

well come to think about it, the last time I attended a U.S. Drift event, all kinds of things happened, like a Hachi catching on fire, it was crazy

theres were some very very small cracks going around the pole.....that couldve caused it. maybe the rim caught 1 just right while sideways.

I believe you man, its plastic, anything can happen to plastic and after all, look how easy the knuckles break, why wouldnt the wheels break under a lot of pressure as well?
