Found a picture of this machine but I don't know what wheels these are. They're similar to CE28N's but not quite. Anyone know the wheel?:bonk:

Dont know but they look to be expensive as they seem to be a three piece design.

That setup runs spacers on front and rear. Lowered on Tein Flex.

Staggered fitment.

stoneman155 08-30-2012 04:52 AM

Anybody have more pictures of this particular car?

I'm still looking for wheel specs on this fitment. Width and offset?

Also, RZ86 posted up the same wheels in 18x9.0 and I moved them to their own topic here:

stoneman155 08-31-2012 03:41 AM

Talked with Garage 88, the fronts are 19x8.5 and rears are 19x9.5 this particular car is using wheel spacers. However, the correct offsets are available to not use wheel spacers according to Garage 88

DarrenDriven 08-31-2012 04:56 AM

Can you find out the offsets and wheel spacer sizes that were used on this car?

stoneman155 08-31-2012 02:12 PM

We've been emailing back and forth, I'm just waiting for a reply from them on what this particular car's setup is

stoneman155 09-04-2012 12:59 PM

He is not willing to reveal his offsets because he has worked so hard to find out what works. However, if you order through Garage 88, he will supply the correct wheel offset for flush stance

DarrenDriven 09-04-2012 01:41 PM

Aw gawd, not another one of these. How HARD did he work? Did he have to break into an underground vault to reveal the holy specs while a team of undercover agents tried to stop him?

@stoneman155 thanks for posting the photo, not calling you out, just the idiots that want to keep basic specs a secret.

stoneman155 09-05-2012 05:30 PM

Yeah, finding the right offset isn't quite like keeping engine specs secret. Bad customer service if you ask me. I'm working on getting these wheels ordered from a local vendor. They're going to work with me to get the right fitment/offset. As soon as they're in and on, I'll post up so everyone has the flush specs

coyote 09-05-2012 07:18 PM

I can see both sides of this argument, however if stoneman is buying these wheels from a local vendor, why is he wasting the time of an Australian store owner with questions about a product he has no intention of buying from him?

Some people will sell you anything. They do no research, hold no stock and just make a small clip by being the middle man for a product that is drop shipped from goodness knows where. They'll tell you anything they know, because that's not very much, most of it wrong and in the end it's buyer beware.

Others do their own research in order to ensure customers get stuff that works, fits, etc. This bloke is my local vendor and if that's poor customer service, then I'm loving it.

JDMSushi 09-05-2012 08:58 PM

I have specs somewhere saved on my laptop... ill see if I can dig em up.

Remember though, these are 3 piece and are custom ordered to your specs. There are definitely better specs out there than the fitment he's ordered here.

stoneman155 09-05-2012 10:39 PM

@JDMSushi I'd love to see the specs if you can dig them up. @coyote I definitely see the other side of the argument. It does make a lot of sense. However, it's always nice to see someone willing to help out regardless of the situation. Which is what we see a lot of on this forum, and I enjoy that. I was actually considering buying from garage 88 and paying for the ridiculous shipping because he was being so friendly, but once I told him I was from the United States, he did not reply back. Either way, he was helpful up to the point of letting me know what specs I'd be getting.

coyote 09-05-2012 11:40 PM

I can definitely see what you're saying, I just know for a fact that many people over the years have pumped that guy for info only to then run off and buy it from a faceless online retailer in order to save $20. We are talking about hundreds, not just a few.

I hope you get it sorted, they are great looking wheels.

Given from the feedback I heard from mates at wtac that's their standard attitude. Plus If it was such a secret he would have removed the stickers from the wheel barrel... ;)

Enigmus 09-06-2012 01:49 AM

Forgot those fools who wanna keep offsets a secret. Don't list them and let this topic go into limbo until someone else shares that info in a different thread. Plus remove that OTHER listing that dragged out several pages on keeping offsets a secret.

Agreed. I can understand peoples frustration at some Tuner's not revealing information but after seeing it from their perspective and receiving the customer service from the people who own this car, I couldn't be anymore impressed with their work and as such, I would go back to them every time because of it.

DarrenDriven 06-24-2013 02:08 AM

Giving up on getting the specs for these wheels. Just ridiculous.
