congrats M5's are sexier

LuDe2K1 · 12-06-2002, 08:13 AM

Yeah the C5's are nice but the m5's look better..aha Because I have the M5's..

Nice purchase. Make sure to take some pics. If it makes you feel better, I think the C5's look much better than M5's.

LuDe2K1 · 12-06-2002, 01:40 PM

^^^ Sounds like you feel bad for him.. haha.. My friend has the RH C5 Evo and the rims gets flaky.. that sucks because the rims look sorta weird when it gets flaky.. M5's Look much better than the C5's.

johnnyx25 · 12-06-2002, 01:47 PM

^^^ LOL. No, I don't feel sorry for him. I'm not sure about that whole flaky thing and all, but C5's have just always been one of my favorite looking rims. If I had the money, I would definently go with a some C5's or Volk TE37's.

Racing Hart M5 > RH C5 EVO

M5 = made in Takeda, Japan Hart Wheels.
C5 evo = awesome marketing by dazz "RH"

so i would say the quality is better on the M5. But man, the C5s do look awesome. Congrats on the buy dude, long live 5 spokes!!

AlexLude · 12-06-2002, 06:18 PM

C5's are coo an I used to love them....but now I love the M5's

then again, there are too many anthony copycats

I'm just playin....I love his setup too.

it's strange how much a little change can throw a look off. The original C5's were 3 piece, an had the little rivets plus C5 in black on one spoke....the C5 Evo's are 1 piece, have no rivets an the logo isn't colored.....makes them look bad personally. The M5's tho look great no matter which....original or evo :

: I like the M5's

1290 shipped for 17's w/ tires....are they 3 piece or 1 piece? actually seems kinda high....maybe I'm trippin tho

So many Anothony copycats? HAHAHHAHA why don't you ask him where he got his idea of getting M5's from, you'll be surprised by what he tells you.

Hahaha from "Mike LOWrey of course".... Anonymous_Luder.

On the whole C5 vs M5 topic though, I gotta say the 3-piece C5s have that old school appeal to them (maybe I'm just old...hahaha.) I'd take M5s over the new C5 Evos anyday though...

ElectronLude44 · 12-07-2002, 12:01 AM

C5 3pc owns all. Woulda got C5 3pc over my Advans if I had the chance.

Anthony copycats? Uhm, this board is a "clean" board. Hey wait, I'm an Anthony copycat? Oh wait, maybe all the people with RS kits are? LOL. Whatever. Clean looks makes the Lude look good

As for rims, M5 evos are nice, C5 evos are nice, but 1 piece rims make me cringe...going over speedbumps is bad. My other roommate has a Lexus on C5 Evos. They're pretty fuxxored up.

JC-DC2 · 12-07-2002, 12:05 AM

You sure that's not from his Superman-style driving over curbs in K-Town????

Anonymous_Luder · 12-07-2002, 12:05 AM

Damn straight Mike Lowrey! I would have to agree with Marcus, the old school three piece C5's rule. But the new C5 Evos are ewwww... I'll take some M5's over them anyday.

Whats wrong with Superman? His car kind of looks like it if he had a big "S" on the hood.

JC-DC2 · 12-07-2002, 12:07 AM

...My name's not Marcus!! lol...

ElectronLude44 · 12-07-2002, 12:08 AM

Since when was Justin superman? Marcus and Mike?

Hey don't be jealous that you're not part of the Bad Boys, that your not Mike Lowrey and Marcus Burnett Vlad. You can be one of our junior partners, you know the ones that get left behind when everything gets blown up...
