OK... finally think I have it nailed. It's for a Silver SE. Tires will be Kumho 711 in the 205/55/15 size, and the wheel will be this:




Thoughts?

 

I think that will look damn good. I would definately put those wheels on my car.

 

you lucky se people, there's such a big variety of wheels to choose from

btw, nice wheels

 

The black spoked, chrome lipped rims always look best! I like those more than all the other ones you had been ooking at. I'd get those in a heart beat if my GSL didn't have a shitty *** pattern size.

 

too ricey for me, I prefer mesh, panasports or the konigs I and Max 7 have on our cars but all of these are color dependent.

 

I like them, they should look really good on your car. I, too, love the black spoke/ polished rim look. I just got lucky in that my GS already had a set of wheels similar to those when I bought it.

 

What Koenig wheels are you referring to... the Rewinds? I looked for those, but never really found them being sold in a 15x7 with the required 38mm offset.

Another factor is that with this much offset, it's important to find a wheel that offers a bit of a lip. The 38mm Panasport style wheels seems to look better on a 4x110 pattern (non-SE) because they don't need the offset.

I thought of these as "updated" vs. being "ricey." There are a lot of choices out there that are ricey, that's for sure!

 

i have a set of kuhmos on m car matter of fact i think they are the same tire your talking about. hold on lemme check.
*runs to the garage*
*drinks a beer*
*uses the pisser*
*runs back to the garage because he forgot already*

ok ya they are. the tires are awsome. They stand up very well to my constant drifting and autoxing. i've had them for over a year now and they have about 1/3 - 1/2 the tread left. in my exp thats pretty damn good.

 

What are they?

 

They look really good, but i think they would look alot better without the R on spoke.

 

Very nice.

Myself, I prefer a silver/chrome rim.
When I first got my seven, it had some NICE Enkei meshers that I sold to a forum member. Now that I no longer have them, I actually don't miss them. Mesh are nice, but a good five spoke is always nicer.

To be honest, I have grown quite attatched to plussers. . . .

 

try these on for size

Cheezy!

 

The rims look pretty good, but you can do better than 711's. They truely suck. If you're looking at Kumhos, try the MXs. Much more grip.

 

I was afraid of that... thanks for the warning. My fallback was the Falken Ziex ZE-512...that may be a better choice.

 

I'm gonna cry now, those would look PERFECT on my orange 85, but I have a gsl

 

I feel the same pain with the wheel problem.

 

i want those wheels!

i wonder if those cp adaptors would work with those

 

What brand/model are the wheels?

I like em... I llike em a LOT. But I'd wanna research more. I've heard bad **** about some companies, including famous ones like Konig. (Wheels come apart where they're not supposed to.)

 

Oh ****, I've never heard that about Koenigs... damn it. Well, my fingers are crossed... I just ordered tham 2 hours ago. Packaged with Toyo Proxes 205/55/15 tires, $600 delivered.

 

Toyo Proxes RA-1....I just put a set on my car last night....HOLY **** are they sticky.

 

What brand/model are the wheels? Also, are they available without the "R" on the spoke? I do not like to advertise my m@d JDM tyTenEsS y0!

 

I never recieved these wheels and never recieved a refund either! Bad Bad!

 

The best looking rim on a silver FB non gsl-se pattern is the Kosei K1's

Here is the best looking silver fb I have ever seen!

And look what I found, a set on e-bay right now.
