My new Rays 57xtremes from Maximal Performance
 

Just wanted to give a shout to Terry @Maximal for the great deal and show off a little. :p but besides getting a great deal on these(18x8.5) I got them in super quick too. Ordered them on a Monday and got them in on a Wednesday. Couldn't ask for more. These just seem like they were meant for this car.

here's some shitty cel phone pics. had to pull it in the garage ASAP because I heard thunder and the clouds were coming. :burnrubber:

no wheels here. I just like this pic of the car in the garage with my nifty Warsteiner banner. :D

p.s. yes I know. I've got to lower it. that'll happen after the warranty is up :lol:

what size tires are you running?

235/40/18

Thanks, they look great!

+45 offset or +33 or other ?

+33. they stick out a bit on the front. nothing a little lowering and camber won't fix. the rear is perfect.

I copied another members car @shiumai and his setup looks 10 kinds of awesome. I just didn't stagger mine.

Looks awesome Bobby and thanks for the props!

lowering will not affect any part of your warranty, you will have warranty on your new coils/springs - balances out no?

warranty on the struts and maybe control arms or whatever?:iono:

If you get springs, yes, you will wear your struts out a little prematurely (could always get TRD/STI struts)

control arms, only if you slam

yeah, I'm not going to slam it. I was thinking TRD/STI struts and springs. not sure the best place to go for that though.

Car looks great! im trying to figure out what color to go with on my 57 extreme wheels for my asphalt grey so this is gonna help me decide. I'm probably gonna go 17x9 and with a spacer up front to have that street drifter poke. Im trying to decide between winning blue and black right now!

But anyway,

For struts/springs just go to one of those websites that sells toyota/subaru parts at discounted rates. You'll likely find the best deal there.

Hey man just go a bit wider to 9.5 and you can get concave wheels if you like that look!

unfortunately 57extremes are not available in 17x9.5 for 5-100
They are offered in 18x9.5 but i find that to be just a little too much tire for my stock car. Haha as if 1x.5 will make much of a difference


My ideal size would be 17x9 with a lower offset. 17x9 high 20's-low 30's offset is my dream size right now but that's not available in most cases cause of our god awful lug pattern. I have come across so many great deals on iconic 5x114 wheels as of late as well :/

Also tires are gonna be a little less expensive at this size along with the actual fitment of the wheels. A spacer up front should suffice till a better size appears.

Until im more financially stable to afford some custom sized wheels ill make this size work :bonk:
