Deep dish wheels?
 

Hey guys,

Well I have the OZ Ultraleggeras that I've installed a while ago and they're starting to become a bit "boring". Looking for more of deep dish (and I mean deeep) wheels just like Miura's one (TRA Kyoto Rocket Bunny), I think they're deep dish BBS wheels.

Anyone with deep dish wheels such as those that can post up pics?

Any recommended set-ups?

Any issues with the negative offsets, bla bla?

Specific sizes, offsets, etc. that I should go for?

Putting into mind that no widebody kit will be installed and I don't mind the tire being drawn more out from the fender since we don't have any law/regulation that forbids that from happening in a car here in Dubai.

I remember most BBS rims aren't available in 5x100's but you can run adapters , wheel dude offers a nice design, Linea corse i think.

leaving your body stock and tires being very wide might be slightly an over kill.


Dubai police is way more lenient than Abu Dhabi's police :word:

Your in the wheel directory...
...dig around a bit a bit.

This has an awesome chart and pics links.

When choosing deep dished wheels, it reaches a stage where you need wider fenders to prevent tires from sticking out like a golf cart.

Or running massive negative camber

I'll take a look at them and not wider as in half of the tire being out like a long travel trophy truck haha, I meant a bit out.

Yes they are Al Suwaidi ;).

Thank you so much, will take a look.

Yeah I'm looking at negative camber.

Yep, might for a bit of negative offset but the TRA Kyoto's rocket bunny doesn't look really really wide?

@Yamajee trust me it is very very wide compared to a stock 86

I think safe bet is to do 18x9. Our wheels push 3 inch lip without going beyond fender... That is very close in terms of caliper clearance

I'm going rocket bunny just not now, maybe in September because I'm waiting for someone who is building one here and then I'll have my final decision.

Thank you, the exact answer I was looking for.

If I remember correctly the wheels on that red rocket bunny are 16's

Yes, I was doing some research and turns out to be this following size (for reference):

BBS RS Wheels
Fronts are 16"x10" with a -15 offset
Rears are 16"x10" with a -45 offset

I might just go rocket bunny with that exact setup.

You can get BBS RS redrilled and filled to 5x100 PCD , as well as get them relipped and rebarrelled. places like memoryfab, CZ wheels, VR wheels, Rotiform offer these kind of services, but in the US. Also keep in mind on a 3 piece wheel, you can always up-covert the wheel diameter, such as- buying a set of 17" BBS RS and getting them relipped and rebarrelled to 18"s

for reference , my current set-up is at 18x11 +25 rears 18x10 +15 fronts, with lots of negative camber on stock fenders


Good luck

Rocket Bunny looks great, but I'm already over it.

Any pic of your car?
