what tire is that? wondering if the section width is different than the one I tried (NT01). I would not have thought that a +38 would have worked without significant rubbing at full lock. to add to the picture requests, can you stick the camera back into the wheel well to take a picture of how much space you have between the tire and the spring?

considering he's slightly poking here (which IMHO isn't 'spot on'), adding a 1/4" on both sides of your wheel isn't going to help you. Might rub on the inside too. Perhaps it boils down to the tire, since this guy has 255's all around; if you stretch it might fit better

I think I'm the rare car enthusiast breed that is finding all of the customizations looking great on this car so far, I like the single exhaust idea on it!

It is the nt555. I'm going to change the wheel barrels and tire sizing a bit. I'll get some pics for you. There's definitely plently of room between the spring and wheel. No rubbing. Quote:
Smaller tires would work better, but I didn't want sunken fitment. After I lower it it will work out perfect. I'll post pics for you in the future. Tons of room in the rear for a 10" wide. Quote:
Thank you!! I personally love it. And you won't be able to beat this setup when it comes to cost and weight reduction when we release it for sale. Quote:
No pull needed maybe a slight roll. Like I said I'll post pics when I get the suspension setup in a week or so. |

I love the look of these wheels. Would go with silver + polished lip myself.
Don't want to think about the $$$ though, and no idea what they weigh. O.o

What coilovers are you planning on using? I plan on using the same size wheels.

I's also LOVE to know the weight of those SSRs, being a 3piece rim and all.

I'm going to be stripping them down, changing the lips, and re coating them soon, so I'll weigh them then. I'm personally not a fan of the black/polished lips either but I have something in mind... |
