I ordered some wheels. Supposed to ship today, so i should have them early this coming week.
specs:
front - 17x8 et45 5x114.3 rear - 17x9 et45 5x114.3
final offsets will be et 25 on each after adapters. the fronts will be damn near flush, and the rears will poke about 9mm. They are 2 piece. A steal at 485 shipped.
they're made by Zauber and they are super JDM. for those looking for wheels, check out RB Motoring. they immport all these wheels from japan and sell em cheap
actually after looking at my spreadsheet, i think i'll need 25 mm adapters insdead. so that will put the final offsets at et20 front and back. I need the extra space up front to clear the coils.
oh cuz you posted that thing in my bike f/s post so i thought you were. yeah i saw some sweet ones on ebay. maybe in the next couple months i'll trade some money for one.
OK so i have the wheels, adapters, and tires. BUT, they sent me the wrong adapters. they are 1.3 inch instead of 1. the backs look ok like this, but the fronts are a little too poked for my taste.
here's a look:
also, i'm still looking for some super small valve stems...look like 6 mm
