My new weds!

i really like that last shot

They look great. If you shaved 6 lbs per wheel/tire off then your acceleration should feel much faster now.

On previous cars I owned, every time I went from a heavier wheel to a lighter wheel, even if only slightly lighter, it always felt like I added a bunch of HP to the car.

I plan on getting the same wheels for my track setup.

Were you able to fit your factory TPMS?

Looks great, please tell me whats your suspension setup?

Tanabe GF210 springs on stock struts.

Shotta- factory tpms fit perfectly fine. no issues at all and yes the acceleration feels much better and a much quicker response to throttle. I love these wheels as I am going for more of a track setup.

nice set of wheels

VDC_OFF · 12-06-2012, 01:21 PM

I <3 these wheels, awesome choice! I would have gone with a lower offset on the front but those spacers should help. Price for these are out of my range right now so I went with RP03 18x10's all the way. Not as light as yours, I think mine are at 22lbs. Add these pics to the 18" wheel thread! Congrats!

thanks! the lower pics have the spacer on and help trekondously to finish the look. i didnt feel like running excessive amounts of camber to squeeze the 9.5 +10 up front so the spacer was the best way to go for me. with kh effective offset up front now being at +20 with a 15mm spacer, i still get a little rubbing on bjg bumps which hints that i made a good decsion to go higher offset with spacer. I'm nof as ballsy and some of you other fellas out there lol.

nice wheels! Front lip looks good too!

djtodd · 12-12-2012, 07:35 PM

Nice! Might consider these as an alternative to the ever present te37s for track set. See enough of those at the track as it is!

thats why i wanted to go more rare weds. the common issue is they only come no larger then 18's which is why most go with te's. there are 3 370's with aftermarket wheels so far that ive seen and 2 have te37's maybe the 3rd one too but 2 for sure.

djtodd · 12-12-2012, 08:53 PM

Yeah, I would want 18s anyway. Grats again!

leeb8 · 12-13-2012, 06:19 AM

I'm sold

chrischhorn · 12-21-2012, 06:36 PM

thanks for the compliments! i was surprised. i was expecting a lot of "looks to small for the 370."

Function over form for me.
ie: Those 18s will make the guys with 40lb 20s look like they're in slow motion.
