What's the purpose/point of modifying your dd at all?

if you dont drive it whats the point of modifying it? to look at it in the driveway


im prolly gonna get some 15x7.5 unless i find some 8's that i like

Well, I kinda agree with where c_r_x is coming from. Sometimes too much of a good thing can be overkill. I just don't want you have to worry about replacing tires every so often due to scrubbing the inner wall of your tire, or having to adjust your camber because the offset wasn't made for you car. Plus, tire prices are going to multiply when searching for 215s, 225s, or wider. You got to consider all factors before making decision. So wider rims may handle better, but it doesn't mean that they are overall better. Get what I'm saying?


good ol' 15x8 (hopefully you like the look )

here's some other wheels I have in 15x8:

15x8 jeep ravine wheels weighing in at ~17lbs (15x8, +25 offset) vs volk racing te37's at ~11lbs(?) (15x8, +45 offset).

Here's the pics:
















In order to have the same backspacing as stock, ideally you want about a +24 offset in a 15x8. I'm doing this test fitting to see how big of overfenders I'll need and what spacers I want to use with the te37's.....
