Pint.. ^ that's what I mean... if the offset of those Konig is very off, then spacers will be a must... then more $$ to spend and it won't be an option.

So what say you guys about these if I can get them powdercoated?

I didn't try sitting on it cos I am in the store and just in case customer comes in while I am sitting on it and making "Vroooom vroom"... it will look pretty

He is, but he's looking to reverse that situation and go back to stock.

oh i c, thanks for the clarification.

yah, i personally do not think the nismo wheels need spacers either. they are perfect stance for stock height imho.

adds up about $1650 with S&H plus you have to spend $$ on powder-coat them.

ms.pint- if you're not planning to lower your ride keep front offsets between:

front +30 to +35 for 9" width can probably do +25 to +30 for 8"
rear +15 to +23 for 10.5" width, +13 to +20 for 10", probably do +11 to +18 for 9.5"

Looks like they were someone's autocross or track day wheels and they've had a rough life.

kenchan · 01-14-2013, 03:33 PM

^^ true...possibly lots of stress on the wheel.

Well that and the damage to the trunk you caused when I locked you in

Gurney's car is quickly becoming my idea of the perfect example of how Nissan should have made our cars in the first place.
I'm a huge fan of the "modded-but-still-looks-factory" look.
