Brother's new 57PRO wheels
 
Just got them today but it got dark when he put them on so the pictures didn't turn out nice

They look great!

Not knocking the Gram Light 57 Pros, but they're just simple 5-spoke wheels? What's the attraction? Perhaps it's the deep dish rim lip? I dunno...

Looks like a bit too much front wheel for the car are they 18" 's? .. furthers my determination to get 17"s up front & 18"s in the rear.

btw, IMHConservativeO gold & silver don't work - Ever.

tookwik 01-29-03 11:15 PM

not bad. I personally would only do gold on a black, red, or suburu blue color cars.

Looks nice...very clean and simple design. They make you focus on the cars simple and clean lines. Nicely done. I agree with the above comment about color schemes, but gold and silver can be done together.

Yup, I think the simple 5 spoke is one of the nicest on our cars... I think the perfect wheel would be the SSR integral IF it were available in wider than 9" sizes and were maybe a pound or two lighter.

Oh yeah, and painted carbon-silver like BMW M wheels.

I have SSR Integral A2s in 9 x 17 with 255/40-17 AVS Intermediates all around. Weight is 45 lbs each with wheel-and-tire. Pretty near-perfect fitment, although I would like 9.5 wide with 255/40-17. I'm sure the performance advantage with 1/2-inch wider is neglibly better?

I run 275 rears, and wouldn't really want to go smaller. 9.5 or even 10" would really be better for that size. I'd run 275/35/ if i had 18" as well. The 1/2 to 1" would really help.

Can anyone else only see the top 1/4th of this picture?

I think you can choose your offset. Anywhere between +52 to -6 in a 10" wide wheel. That'll be handy. Plus I think they're nearly as light as the TE37. and cheaper.

The ideal widths are 9s in either 17 or 18 diameters. Only available offset is 40-mm that will fit our bolt-pattern of 5 on 114.3.

What does this bit about '18" Free Offset' at the bottom mean then:confused:

The only thing I can think of is that they are saying they will do a custom offset in that range for free- no additional charge.
