I am really thinking about buying a set of 17" Focal F5's. I don't think I want to spend the extra for the chrome version, so do you guys think a pair of these silver rims would look fine on a red car??<P>Heres a link to what they look like:<P> <A HREF="http://www.focalwheels.com/noflashf5wheels.htm" TARGET=_blank>Focal F5</A>

I really like them, I was actually seriously considering buying them two replace my TSW VX1 rims last year. However I was having a hard time finding a place in Toronto that could get them.<P>I have only seen two or three times on the road before so not a lot of people have them(well at least here in Toronto) which is a good thing if you want to stay unique.<P>If you can find them I say get them, and please post some pictures with them on your car

Ugh, no offence to you my man, but those rims are ugly as hell. My friend had them on his CRX, and my cuzin was gunna put some on his 89 accord. I'm not really much of a fan of Focal anyways. I'm basically a Konig and Enkei fan myself. BUT that don't mean you shouldn't buy them. I aint trying to talk you out, you asked for opinions. If you like them get them. I dunno if yu have flash or not, but if you go to <A HREF="http://www.discounttiredirect.com" TARGET=_blank>www.discounttiredirect.com</A> you can see what most wheels look like on our car with their interactive wheel system. I dunno if they have focal tho.

Well putting those rims on really old cars doesn't really help, those rims go better with newer cars I think.

maybe, but it's the style I don't like.

hey thanks for the advice guys... both positive and negative . you know i just don't get it why people on this board get so offended when others state a negative opinion... oh well. anyway, i think i am still going to go for them... i see them on a red probe in town and i always like what i see. <p>[ October 23, 2002: Message edited by: mattster ]

Hell yea man, I like your style. I'd love to see pix of them on an MX-3. Ya never know, I may change my mind

I have these rims on my car...I think they look pretty good even though I haven't lowered or put anything else on it yet. Once I get ahold of a digital camera I will take pics.

those rims are phat man i think they look awsome,i think they would give youe car a more aggresive look, just my 2cents

hey mikey that would be so cool if you could whip up some pics of the rims on your car. i have been looking around so much for someone with F5's but i came up w/nothing, thats why i started this topic. anyway, ryan hopefully i will change your mind once i get them

those would look good on an mx3 that's flashy on the looks.....if a stock look, it'll look good at least if the mx3 is lowered. if i were you, i'd get my lowering springs before putting on the wheels. jus ask the people who install the springs to put on the focals when they're done. should look good, but imo not on a stock height mx3.
