$2100 for just wheels or wheels and tires? Throw us a bone, what kind of look do you like, 5-spoke, mesh, etc?

Gram Lights 57S-pro. anyone know weight off those 18x8.5 and 18x9 and what offset would be best for stock suspension fd

rynberg

The only real two options you have for good fitment would be:

A) 18x9 +43 (B-disk) all around with 255/35 18 tires

B) 18x8.5 +43 front, 18x9.5 +43 rear (B-disk) with 235/40 or 245/35 fronts, 265/35 or 275/35 rears

You should know that GOOD tires in those sizes will typically cost in the $800-900/set range.

Weight will depend on $$$.

If you are concerned about spending money on tires, I'd suggest sticking to 17" wheels. There are many more options in that size.

If you can stand to wait, be patient and deals will pop up on the forum. If you order new volks/rays you will have to wait months (according to the local dealer), sadly the bbs rgr's are discontinued (according to same guy) and while the 57 pros are a nice looking wheel they are cast and quite heavy (also according to said guy)

rynberg

The 57-ProS is a two-piece cast wheel....it is likely that it weighs in the 25-30 lb range in an 18x9.5 size.

i have volk racing 19 inch on my 93

owen is fat

run 18" enkei rpf1 from rishie @ autornd if you want LIGHT (!) weight.
or go with some nice ssr sp1 from tirerack if you want the bling.

also there are many wheels on the used market for sick deals if you dont mind a few nicks here and there.

would that offset be perfect(no rubbing or anything)18x8.5 +43 front, 18x9.5 +43?

i was thinking about getting 36 offset all around cuz one of the member said that it would fit no problem only thing he had was a lil rub in the front when you corner hard
