Hello everyone, I was giving my wheel selection a thought and stumbled upon buddy club. Anyone have experience with these wheels? They seem light, I like the look and Im wondering if the fitment would be ok. I was 17x10 in the rear and 17x8.5 in the front. Here is the website:

They are reasonably priced and I like they're look alot better then other wheels Ive seen around on FD's. As for tires, Im still undececided, I was think of The Falken Azenis or the Nitto 555RII since I might be having some fun in the local drift events coming up soon. Give me your opinions, any help is appreciated. Thanks wheel gurus.

 

They have a huge following in the Civic crowd due to the extreme lightweight. I had a set at one point for only like a month. I have never heard anything bad about them and totally forgot about the company until you posted this.


Their 17x9 rim is only 14 1/2 pounds Will the 17x9 with 45mm offset work on stock FD?

 

The website doesn't have any wheels listed in a 17x8.5, and the one 17x10 has an offset of +20 which won't fit.

 

Yep. And I was going to recommend 17x9 all around in that offset.

Here are a couple pics of the P1 Racing IIs:

 

Damn, I don't like those now


The lip looked bigger on the website. Maybe it's the black center with polished lip makes it look like that. I want to see a pic of the all polished ones. Also, that color combo makes them look like 16's.


Maybe I'll look into the 18's The weight on the 18's are still close to stock FD rim weight. They make a 18x9 with 45 as well.

 

hmm..........Im kind of stuck on 17x10, what is the offset that they'd have to be to fit an fd?

 

Rear: +45 to +50
Front: +50 with aftermarket coil-overs, rolling fenders would be a good idea

 

Not to hijack the thread but... if that's your car, 'SpeedKing', what brake kit do you have on it and do you like it? Thanks...

 

That car belongs to "Hedgehog". You can contact him for that info.
