Found the 15x8 fit I was looking for
 

15x8 +0 in the front
15x8 -4 rear

The wheels are +6 offset and I'm using a 6mm spacer in the front and 10mm in the rear... 205-50-115 all around.

I went with these because my pathetic NA rotary cannot spin the 18's while drifting and they are cheap... look good too.

looks good. :bigthumb:

looks ok

$35 a wheel you cannot go wrong... these are more for function not look. :icon_tup:

I need something with a small OD that was cheap.

hopefully i'll be rocking the same set of wheel dimensions...

Oh yeah here are my "look good" wheels:

what happened to the fronts bro

if those arent "diamond Racing" they probably weigh a TON!!!!

The first pic, they are like hellaflush. The second, add the "I can take on anything" look! Good Job!

whats the rear size of your "look good wheels"?

:scratch:

You mean the pics of the Enkei? never got around to it... just so damb busy.

Here is a pic of Pat's car he has the wider Enkei in the front:

18x9.5" +27
They are going on the front after my engine swap and I'm getting 18x10.5" for the rear.... gonna need some traction :)

They are about 22lbs each... $35 the diamond racing are 17lbs $110 considering I'm only going to run them for a few months I got the cheaper wheels.
It's funny, my 18x9.5 Enkei were lighter than the 15x8 like I said earlier I don;t really care... the OD dropped enough that I can spin them more -thats what I was looking for.

Great for that race inspired look..

22 pounds for just the wheel! Yowza! Sorry, but I'm used to running 11 pound BBS and my 13.5 pound Rota Panasport replicas. That seems a bit heavy.

Where the hell did you get them for that price??? the 15by8s I need something for events!!!

I already said they are heavy... I don't care.

Summit Racing has them, so do many other sites -your going to at least need 6mm spacers in the front and some trimming of the caliper to make them fit.

If your going for the same look and want something lite weight check out Diamond Racing or Bassett wheels... look for a 0 offeset.

I don't understand? Isn't traction a function of tires?

its easier for a low hp engine to spin smaller wheels with low grip tires, than it is for the same low hp engine to spin large wheels with the same low grip tires.

think about it.

I could think about it, but then I calculated it instead. Seems like if both wheels ran the same width and brand of tires, the 15inch wheel would be slightly easier to spin because it has lower rotational inertia.

i gotta a buddy that works at Schwabs, they sell these wheels to mud boggers all day long. was gonna get them for the same exact reason but went a different route. still, they look pretty good. you should get smaller tires though, hella slammed drifter style.

tires are too big,

I know... I just put FALKEN AZENIS RT-615 on the front 205/50/15 and will leave the 205/60 on the rear till I burn through them all then downsize.

The 205/50 is Soooooo much better... I'll take pics later tonight.

Dope rims bro. Do they got bigger sizes?
