very nice ! :happy0180: looks great even without the full 5 axis kit sweet

Sasquachulator · 08-10-2012, 12:08 AM

those actually look good.

Anyone else think it should have red center caps like the FRS concept (well to match the concept)? lol

WithNolock · 08-10-2012, 12:11 AM

Those have moved to near the top of my favorite rims.

Looks great, but I wish they were symmetrical! (I do like the thin-flat spoke design)

Not the biggest fan of wheels that are opposite left to right... if you catch my drift.

I think black centre caps and red lug nuts would break up all that silver in the middle of the wheel and make them look really good.

FT-86GOD · 08-10-2012, 04:05 AM

3inch drop needed

VincenzoS · 08-10-2012, 04:12 AM

Makes the car look more exotic, nice choice!

encity5 · 08-10-2012, 06:41 AM

Nice! Think if I get the sf:7 wheels' they'll look good without a drop?

I dont think so. It is a must to me. And a springs kit arent too expensive anyhow.

We have installed the springs before the wheels.

So, front and rear rims are the same 8.5" width, but different width (225 vs 245) tires? If so, could you get away with running the 245 tire on the front too? That looks good though. Might just make me consider the 19" wheel, then a turbo to help offset the additional rotational inertia!

jarviz · 08-10-2012, 12:30 PM

alright alright, so what else do i need to get my car looking like this,

rims, plus red center cap plus 3 inch drop.... sigh

In my own opinion, 245 tire is the best size to have to sit perfectly flush with a 8.5 width rim. The look and match is perfect.

But, 245 to the front is overkill. Your steering will be heavier. I saw other members here running 245 to the front so it is possible for you to do it also but not for me.

My father's Ferrari 360 modena is a very big car much bigger heavier than the FR-S and it comes with 215 to the front and 275 to the rear to give you an idea.
