Almost got everything together to get my 17" lenso RS5's on the 7.



Also got a set for a mate

 

What are you doing withe the challengers?

 

not too bad I like the other ones better though

 

very, very nice.

 

did you lower your car? if so what springs/shocks are you using? looks nice I just put some 17" in mine but I need to lower the back more.

 

The new ones look absolutely fantastic!! Great Job on the car. What paint color is that? Seems similar to the one I am going to paint my widebody.

 

those would look amazing in gunmetal

 

Those tuck under the wheel wells very nicely, looks sharp.

 

That offset is PERFECT! But IMO, they are too big. I'm not a huge fan of large wheels on these cars. Nothing bigger than 16" as that to me is just right. Any bigger and it looks as if the wheels don't fit the car. But thats just me. If you like them thats great, just not my cup of tea.

On a side note, I read somewhere that the diameter of the wheel doubled should not exceed the height to the top of the fender line. General rule of thumb for cars and if you ask me, it works.

 

mperformance- Rear is lowered approx 3.75" i'm running KYB's front and rear with Aroura springs (I have some Ground Control cloilovers going in the front soon) front is 2.25" lowered

Directfreak- the colour is from Chrysler 300C

xlr8planet I want to paint them metallic charcoal eventually and will probably have them on my 1500 estate most of the time

 

whats your stud pattern ?

whts the offset of those wheels ?

did you use a spacer ?

 

dem wheelz is perty

 

Nice set of wheels you got there!

Here's a quick one of mine:


I'd love to get my hands on US/AU spec tail lamps for the SA. The European's have the organge turn lamps on the corner, and it looks so f*cking ugly

What's the ring around your door lock cylinder? All the ones I've seen are black.

 

That looks Amazing! What are the specs for the wheel?

 

13 beef you have the same door locks as me. I like the fact that you cant shove a screw driver or other flat objects into the lock to open it. Some things APC made are ok. hehe

 

Wheels are 17"x7" Lenso RS5's PCD 4x114.3 and 4x100 running 25mm spacer/adaptors to change to 4x114.3 Offset is +42

here's a pic of one of my adaptors for anyone that's interested

 

13beef,
17's look great on your 7! Did you get the adapter customer made?
Did you need to roll your fenders to prevent rubbing?

 

So, what did you do with the challengers??

 

man those rims look AWESOME

 

Yes,adaptors were custom made to suit my application. Front and rear fenders have been rolled.
Just waiting for some new press studs so I can get all four wheels on the car.

twinkletoes- I'm hanging on to the challengers.
Brand new price is only around $230AUD per rim for 15"x7"s in 4x110 with +20 offset

 

I can get you brand new lenses from Mazda if you're interested

 

Alight, what is that in american please? Or i'll just call up the site you gave me awhile ago. Thanks

 

$177USD each at today's exchange rate

 

Looks good. Are you sell the adapters?
