doood. I flipped a set of OZ rally wheels like that back in the day. Those things were pimp.

Those are made by another UK company which makes rally wheels & the wheels for the BTCC...(Rimstyle) under their "Team Dynamics" brand & under their race/rally specific models of "Pro-race".....I run the road car drilled for (same moulds /design just 5 hole) versions of the BTCC alloys for my summers... So basically one set of Team Dynamics Pro-race 3 for winter & one set of TDPR 1.2 for summer.....I ordered both sets from Rimstyle directly before I took delivery of the car!

Can somebody tell me where rines came from, I thought they were ruedas.
"Rin" comes from some South American countries. I'm Puerto Rican, and we say "aros" for wheels. Mexicans use the same word, as far as I'm aware. We call tires "gomas", but Mexicans and much of Central America call them "llantas". However, some South American countries use "llantas" for wheels! I've heard Spaniards and some South Americans call tires "neumáticos", but that's a super formal word. Many South American countries also say "ruedas" for tires. Dunno what the Cubans say -- paging Dr. @Keehs360

Spanish is a mess.

Everyone knows exactly what you mean when you use rims as a substitute for wheels.

I always say wheels though since it makes you seem more momisticated ;)

IF YOU GUYS ARE ALLOWED TO CALL WHEELS RIMS THEN @uglybastard AND I ARE ALLOWED TO SAY GRILLED CHEESE WHEN IT HAS MEAT IN IT


DAMNIT!

It's a slippery slope.

First, you're calling a sandwich with meat in it a grilled cheese.

Next step, you're saying Zrick is an upstanding, honorable member of the community.

Where does it end, @jay745? Where does the madness cease?

But those are two different things.

Hell, even bolts and screws are two different things!
