Wheel selection help

[JAP63]

yeah for shaw!

Im a fan of dish

Just very hard to find it in a 4 stud and a reasonable offset for our cars too.

 

[AUSVR4]

What's reasonable offset though? 35 or even 32 is about spot on IMO.
I'm finding it very difficult finding something that I think will fit the car - without having the brake brackets on hand and everything bolted on

i can vouch for the wheels on jamies car, the back ones scrub a little bit but the fronts are good...maybe you arse end is too low jamie

Depends what width you're looking at and what look you're going for Dan? Do you like the whole "hella flush" look or are you just looking for a nice wheel that fills the guards ok?

 

[AUSVR4]

Flush - the new rice! LOL, I cant believe there's an site dedicated to that!

 

[jase]

There's a site dedicated to anything, you just gotta have a job that allows you to stumble across it... :lol:

dish is gay, fake dish is even gayer

Dish is gay?? :roll:


Depends on what type of wheels they are and what car they're on!

when the wheels are flush it looks so much better than wheels with a shadow offset

i meant its gay because you cant fit big brakes on

I would kill for a set of those Shu's in white! Exactly the same as what was on DIE-STI
Would set my Galant of perfectly

These are my favourites, probably never be able to afford them though

I always thought these would look cool on a slammed VR4... Like that white yellow and (red?) one in that video from Sweden or wherever..

Actually not too badly priced either... (for a quality rim)

they look similar to the stockies on Lancia delta integrale

$2500 shipped to Aus :roll: No thanks! hehe

Man this is going OT...

 

[Velocity Racing]

hey dan.. go speak to autosport.. Mark can do the compo's cheaper than the rallynuts prices .. or there is a few places interstate that do them..

also try some speedlines.. they look as good and are cheaper

do you mean Erwin Webbers european rally championship winning car?

there's a vid of it on youtube doing helli's 8)

 

[AUSVR4]

I take it 17x9.5 +15 wouldn't fit? :lol:

 

[tharaka]

I take it 17x9.5 +15 wouldn't fit? :lol:

yeah it would fit

 

[AUSVR4]

Bugger. They were 5 stud

 

[JAP63]

I take it 17x9.5 +15 wouldn't fit? :lol:

yeah it would fit

It would fit..... :?

The rears would be hanging aroud 30-40mm outside the rear guards...Depending on your camber and ride height etc...

The fronts would be around 50mm outside the guard...
In my terms..that doesnt fit..and im sure transport would also agree...
and it would look F*#king ridiculous

What is your definition of "fitting"?

Here you go,on a 2g talon..the guards measure up a little different but close enough to look roughly like the one below..

17x9.5 @+12
If thats the look your after... :smt046

 

[VR-4Squid]

yea, but if you know what your doing you can flare the gaurds enough to cover 50mm extra width (not without having to repaint tho).

Or you could go with bolt on flares (I know that sounds hideous, but check this out).
