Personally, I like the the "type C"

I usually prefer the classic, uncluttered look for any wheel.
IMO, a wheel should complement a car, not compete with it for attention.

Type c is a nice wheel but I prefer the look of the type f on our cars

henrylee · 03-02-2012, 01:13 PM

F if your dropped.

yell · 03-02-2012, 01:14 PM

oh tnx guys ! i need more answers :)

I wouldn't say one is better than the other. They are both forged and made by the same company. If these are the only two you are looking at, I think it just comes down to which do YOU prefer.

Here are the bronze Type C's on my car. I've had the on for four years now.

TOUGEghost · 03-02-2012, 10:46 PM

Type C would look better in the 15" size. Type F would look better in 16" size and up.

Black_griffin6 · 03-02-2012, 11:26 PM

Are you planning on lowering it?
I think we need some pics of your car to better judge this.

Personally, I could go with either, they are both great wheels.
I have the silver SSR type F's in 16x7 for my silver liftback, I like the multi-spoke wheel look better for the liftback, but I think it would look really good on the sedan too.

Apparently he's in Japan... so there are virtually hundreds and hundreds of wheels "no-one else has" here. Curious why he's interested in wheels commonly found here in NA when he has such a vast variety to choose from... and so much expert fitment advice for the Vitz/Belta readily available in Japan.

Plus, it looks like he's posting under two different names: yell and gudboi182. Something fishy here!

I prefer the Type F's to the Type C's, but both are nice wheels. Multi spokes look great on our cars.

marlondog · 03-06-2012, 07:13 PM

I would go with the multi-spoke type f's. They give the car a classier look. Those long spokes also make the wheels larger as well. The lb looks pretty weak with small looking wheels,especially with a high roofline and the big freaken doors. A blind man would even tell you to go with the type f. If you are worried that your car will be that much slower cuz the Type F is .1kg heavier, you are worrying about silly things that would only make a difference to someone that is super anal about specs.

I guess you're getting silver, or the question doesn't make sense.

If you wanted black or gold, you'd only get Type F's.
If you wanted bronze or gun metal, you'd only get Type C's.
