Just ordered my wheels!!
Just placed my order for rims.
I wanted lightweight affordable wheels for the track so I went with the Enkie RPF1. These are gonna be a square setup, I ordered 19x10 +22. Ill be picking em up Friday and ill have pics soon. Just excited about finally getting rid of the ugly base wheels lol. One question tho. I want some meaty tires on these, any idea what sizes I could run ad what they'd look like? Update 3-24-2013 So sorry Ive gone for a while here's a pretty good update on the wheel situation. Ordered my Wheels and while Waiting for them to be shipped, I was rear ended :shakes head: Luckily the Damage was only Cosmetic and Scott @ Relentless Autosports really took care of me. I highly recommend him for any type of work you need done to you car. Here are some pics or the "carnage" http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364154007 http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364154011 http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364154021 Anyways while all that was happening I was just being teased..... Tires came in. 255/40/19 Continental Extreme Contact DW http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364153904 Then the Wheels came in finally http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364153929 So I got them mounted and now played the waiting game for the car.... http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364153949 When I got the car back the first thing I did was mount the wheels lol I dont have any good pictures of the car........YET. The work done was top notch and I even got the Stillen Roof Wing installed while it was being fixed(pics of that coming soon). Here's my favorite Iphone picture I have so far http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364153979 And here's the instagram edit lol http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364154002 I know the Pictures are shitty but I have a shoot planned for the weekend so it'll be updated then. UPDATE 3-29-2013 Shot some pics this afternoon here are some of the shots I liked. None are edited btw The lighting on this one was bad but I still liked it and you can see the stillen wing here. http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364602588 Fitment shot. http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364602608 Booty http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364602615 Detail shot http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364602601 Side Angle http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364602622 Favorite shot http://i1147.photobucket.com/albums/...g?t=1364602594 |

2.5 sounds nice but this car is also I daily driver so I'm not tryin to run more than I do now because of camber wear. So a 255/35 would run clean?

In for pics

I mean you wheels/tires are going to stick out of the fenders probably close to an inch at stock camber settings. If you are dropped on swifts then your fenders are going to bite your tires on almost every decent sized bump at decent speed. |
Exactly why I have gone 18 x 9.5 at ET22 for front and ET12 for the rear for my square track setup. I'll be running 265/35R18 R-Spec tyres as low OD drops the car but retains standard suspension angles. I run an adjustable FUCA (Eibach but it is not perfect so I'm getting some made from CrMo tube with a milled adjuster and heim joint so I can get more than the -2.5 to -3 deg neg available with the Eibach (tyres need 4+).
DD wheels are 18 x 8.5 at ET33 and rears are 18 x 9.5 at ET22. I could space them out a tad, but who cares for DD. |
