Thanks to Rishie and the crew down at Auto RnD for my new shoes!

Pics below.

Notes: They were heavier than some wheels I've seen but much lighter than my Miglias.

5zigen Fronts: 21 lbs
Miglia Fronts: 24 lbs

5zigen Rears: 23 lbs
Miglia Rears: 28 lbs.

I can't say how much better these feel! And I now have the front clearance I need to go up driveways!

 

Damn, thats a nice monster truck you got there. haha, just kiddin. Rims look good. Get some springs at least on that thing!

 

yeah will likely do some Eibachs soon, but ride is pretty harsh with the KYB's so I may pick a more comfortable shock, perhaps even a stock touring shock and go with the Eibach pro kit to bring it down a bit.

 

you might want to get h&r springs. i had eibachs but they dont lower the back enough. eibach is 1 inch drop all around. h&r will give you 1.5 all around when it settles. its a nice looking drop. the eibach felt better than my h&rs though, they were more firm.

 

not too shabby ;o)

Glad to hear you got it all worked out

Those look great.

What sizes did you go with?

 

Thanks, I went with 18x8.5's with 48et in front and 18x9.5's with 43et in back.

Very happy with fitment.

P.S. also planning on going with a 285 35 on rear eventually to take up some of the space in back.

 

yah rishie is the man! Wheels look good, IMHO the best wheels 5zigen has ever made.

 

Awesome zon,

Got worried about the fourth wheel straggler for a minute. So the offset for the front proved to be better and safer? I know the MM were rubbing a little. Have you experienced that issue at all?

Let me know if you need some new struts. I can ship the springs with them at the same time if you need.

Thanks a lot for the props. That's awesome.

Have a happy new year you guys,

Rishie

 

They definitely look good, but in my opinion your tires do seem a little bit too tall.

What size are they in the front and rear?

I agree that lowering her would add a VERY agressive look to her as well.

Keep up the good work, man.

Nice wheels, but you didn't talk about what matters: the tires!

I hope you gave them the gift of grip.

I used my old tires for the time being, they still have a bunch of tread left.

235/40's up front and 265/35's in back.

I don't think they are too tall, what do most of you run?

From what I've seen most use a 40 up front and 35 in back.

I was thinking of maybe going 35 up front but 30 in back is too small IMO, even with a 285. The wheel calculator puts it at 24".

Rishie, no rubbing issues at all! Pleanty of room up front. I now see what you guys were talking about with my offset being not enough.

I'll get with you on struts/springs.
