all are the same size and offset.

pics on your car please,, those look so sexyy

 

might be awhile before that happens.

 

i got me some 18's to and now i find myself stuck on the tires. i want the falkens GBR FK451's, i didnt realize how much frekkin money they would cost. hot lookin tires though...i gotta have em. so gotta wait on the mula. but your rims are tight! good job on your selection.

 

Those have to way like twenty something pounds if they are that cheap. No way can there be a rim that looks that nice, is that cheap, and be lightweight too. How much do they weigh?

 

I would bet they are heavy as well. Also, they are only 8" wide so that's not going to drive the cost up much. Low price always comprises something, usually width, quality and/or weight.

They do look nice however. Would be better in an 18x10 in my opinion.

 

just a question: Why do people buy wheels and don't figure tires into the cost?

 

thanks Grimlock! also i like Falken tires in general. my brother has the azenis(sp?) on his 17" konig imagines and those tires are quiet and handle well. right now my stockers have Falken ziex 502's and they performed way better at the track than i thought they would! Good luck with your tires!

 

i will see if i can get one on a scale!

 

i will be getting them modified in the near future! i have a source who can modify offset and width of the wheel.

 

i bought tires seperately on ebay also. price for them was about $370 shipped.

 

How could you make a rim wider? I don't understand how that's even possible, certainly not safe for the durability of the rim.

 

I'd like to know too!

 

Hope those are going the T2 FC. 8 wide is no better than stock for FD



Even if you do some how manage to have the wheels widened, you're now adding more weight to the wheel with extra material, and compromising wheel strength.

Enjoy them, anway

 

i highly doubt the man would jeopardize his business to do something that is unsafe. now looking at my wheels they are one peice so they most likely cannot be modified. remember wheels can be made on cnc machines to exacting specs out of strong materials(which is the process of most top notch wheels) multi peice wheels no doubt in my mind can be done. Now on another note everybody assumes they know what purpose i'm using thses wheels for! These are just for driving around town, any performance oriented driving will be done on stock wheels with the proper tires! If you do a search on my username you will see i'm a dragracer!

 

That's a good point. This does look like a multi-piece wheel, so if they just widen the outer part, then they could bolt up (or however they attach it) the spokes to it.

 

If you are just driving around town and not too worried about you car taking corners at 1g, then who the **** cares if your rims are only 8'' wide.


They look sweet man.

 

Oh...sorry, the rivets led me to believe your wheels were multi-piece. They're 1-pc wheels machined to look like multi-piece wheels

 

after closer inspection the wheel appears to be 1 peice, but a multi-peice wheel could be done.

 

Here's a real set of performance wheels that look sweet Good work Nuke! Ben's car looks so good the cops had to come by and take a closer look LOL



Hey Ben...no rivets? What gives? LOL

 

my point exactly!

 

can you explain why it would be unsafe to have custom made sections for multi-peice wheels

 

yes those wheels look sweet and probably cost a good amount of money! like i said in my prior post i bought these wheels for around town driving since they will look better than the stockers with the bodykit and paint i'm getting done.


And one last thing Remove your mouth from Ben's nutz
