my260 Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 hey everyone i've got a mate who can get me cheap rims from japan. I need your help to see if this combination will work. the reason why i didnt go with the 8.5 and 9.5 is cause they dont make them in those sizes. 17X8 -12 fronts 17X9 -25 rears also i've got coilovers and flairs. the rear fenders will need to be cut because the previous owner didnt cut & weld them when he installed the flares. thanks for the help guys my260 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toecutter Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Ah WORKS wheels like these! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
my260 Posted September 26, 2006 Author Share Posted September 26, 2006 Yes like those. I'm picking up the 2p rims in champaign for $3500 brand new. I have to wait over 2 months to get them. But 133mm of dish is worth the wait!!!! Doesnt look like I can get cheaper prices on the Wat's. My mate said if 5 ppl buy a set in 16's it'll be $2700 each inc shipping. Thats not that great considering I've seen ppl on this site getting quoted $2500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toecutter Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Cool looking forward to seeing them on the car! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zedevan Posted September 27, 2006 Share Posted September 27, 2006 it will look nice, great choice! did you have a look at any volk wheels? there's a picture of an orange zed with gold gt-c's or gt-p's on it and it looks sexy! however i think their lowest offset is +3 or so?

my260 Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 I've looked at alot of jap rims, even the VIP Bling Bling rims and i came to the conclusion that these would look the best on my car. I like simple 5 spoke rims with big dish. Might end up going with black rims because i have two color schemes i'm thinking of. either: blood red car with black flares and black wheels or gold car with black flares and gold rims the red car is more a subtle menacing look while the gold one is more a showy "look at me" effect. oh yeah thanks to toecutter for posting my pic up. thats my pic i uploaded at classiczcars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
