I'm sure he has them for the same reason you all have yours. He likes them.
It is a bit extreme, but hell, it's his car and if he likes it... all the power to him. |
the car will receive wide fender, thats the point of the wheels.
|
oh ok, that makes a lot more sense.
|
Makes sense, like that I was wondering if the tires ruined the fenders every time you hit a bump. Love the color of the car though and can't wait to see it finished.
|
i cant run like that here in quebec ill get pulled the first corner a cop see me haha i just put wheels on for picture, anyway the car sleep in snow right now
|
:wtf1: :Wconfused damn... the first pic looks like spare tires... to which his own I guess
|
lol wtf spare tire ? how can you say they look like spare tire when you dont even see where the tires end.. ??
|
flared or not, you have the wrong backspace and size. that car reminds me of the 80's when the lowered mini-pick up trucks were around.

you know nothing about the 80's I can tell. the 80's mini-p/u looks like a frog since most of them are running spacers to make the tires stick out OR are using rims that are wider in the outside than inside.

my setup
have noticed noone in the states runs the simmons wheels? They are simmons FR18's Fronts are 18x7 with +28 offset (to clear brembo calipers) Rears are 18x12 with 5.5" outers not sure offset As far as I know the only company that can get them is Mariah Motorsports. After shipping they would come to around $3000US. Alot of people don't have that kind of scratch lying around, or have more important things to spend it on. I'm willing to save that much and I looked into them but have my mind set on something else. |

what do you think my rims are ? 5 inches outside , 2 inches inside |
if you have the right backspace, then it shouldnt stick out that far. now, you want them rims so you can have flares? either way, its not wide enough and its really ugly to find a large gap between the back of rims/tires and the frame/inner fender walls. you may as well add some hydraulic and make your RX-7 into a low-rider. :lol: :lol:
|
i dont care, this thread is wheel set up on your FB , its not judge my wheels ;) like it or not I do. And i have them, didnt know they would stick that much so I will put flare, i didnt bought wheels so I could put flare? lol. Oh and btw, just to make you love me, my rx7 is getting a v8 swap :)
|
^^If it's getting a V8 in it, I would definitely put some wider wheels on the back simply for traction. You'll just roast those tires and not go anywhere
|
there will be 235's ra1 in the back (not in the pic) these are temporary tires.

For my FB wheels you'll have to look at my avatar for I am simple-minded and have yet to figure out the pic posting thing. I like my 14" SE stock wheels. I don't see them that often and when I do I appreciate Mazda's design. Any thoughts? Is there a name for them? (I am only aware of the SA's "waffle" name.)

I like those, it would look great with a drop!
|
I just picked up some 13x8 revolutions from Trochoid. I'll be throwing my 215 Sumitomos on them for the Dragon in April... :)
|
Kentetsu, you could snug some 225's under there. ;)
|
I certainly could, if I wanted to run Hoosiers. Finding that size in a real street tire is not easy. But I do runn 225s on the Diamond wheels, which have the same backspacing as the Revo's and they fit with plenty of clearance... :)
|
Damn wacky, here I was thinking I was the only one with a set of 4x110 SSR MK's!
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v1...CT0178-1-1.jpg 15x6.5 SSR MK-III +19 offset (Type B) with 195/55-15 I would love to find a wider set and swap out the shells to go to 8.0-9.0 wide in the back. |

I've got 225 kumho's on the back and 205 kumho's on the front. I've got a special guy for me who could find just about anything, and he mounted them and ballanced them all for $250 bucks.... thats including tire price. ;)

Wheels
My new wheels, 15 x 7 , 22 offset and Falken 205/50/15, RB springs. PRIME wheels with a Ford bolt-pattern 4 x 108 modified by a friend to fit 4x110.
He also made some adapters to keep the wheels centered. http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g3...y/IMG_1304.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g3...y/IMG_1306.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g3...y/IMG_1305.jpg Adapters: http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g3...y/IMG_1298.jpg http://i59.photobucket.com/albums/g3...y/IMG_1299.jpg |
