Win!....I think...

Pulling my fenders tomorrow.

The fender is sitting on the tire :lmfao:

Anyways, 17x10.5 HRE 505 lolo offsets. :blah:

It's gonna be worked :D

Yea, it's dirty, but thats not the point. Everything is getting colormatched once uncle sam gives me my tax return...

Those don't even kind of fit your car, good luck with the fender pulling, but I'm not sure that'll even be enough.

I still think your car looked the best with the RCs.

245/40 on rear, and 215/40 on 17x9 up front.

Have faith you should ;)

The RC's were ok. But I love these wheels.

But in the end... I built this car for ME. :goodjob:

Sammich, I've had 11 sets of wheels so far :eek:

I think that maybe, just maybe, these will be hanging around...

Damn.. I really didn't know my fenders were rolled that much. Is your car just off the jack in the picture? Because you're going to need more camber than that. Looks sick though.

These pics are fresh off the jack.

I'm going to have to with a smaller tire. 225/40 or 235/40 think...

I'm saving up for nex's as well and they should be within my reach within the month.

Camber that negative doesn't look good to me.

And wheel sticking out of the wheel well=ricer...why would you want your wheel sticking out past your fender? looks trashy

And the design of the wheels themselves are...ok at best...

Hey retard, learn to read. Pretty much throughout the entire thread, multiple people converse about how the car is fresh off jack stands and how the fenders will be pulled/rolled within a few days.

Next time read before you make a dumbass of yourself.

STFU deep dish meshies always look good.

Well the camber probably isn't much more than most other here, but wider wheels make it appear like more than it really is. But other than that, I think most will disagree with you about the wheel design

You could just say it's uncool and move on... My buddy was facepalming the whole time I was test fitting these, he HATES stance.

But whatever, your opinion :cheers:

Quick question, 225/40 or 235/40? I'm trying to get the most poke and least fender pullage possible..

Hope not! It should be hot for the sff meet :goodjob:

Your car is faster so you still win lol :D



On another note, I got my tax return today so paint is coming soon :bump:

I think 235/40 would be good, and it would be closer to the outside diameter of the front tires, instead of the rears being so much taller like they are now... 225/40/17's aren't really produced by anyone other than Nitto so the next step down would be 225/45.

Logan

FWIW, I put on the wheels again, tightened all 5 lugs, and compressed the suspension, and there is much more camber now.

I should be able to stay with the 245's out back.

Changing the 215/40's up front to 215/50's. I have a pair laying around the shop, so might as well try them...
