Rims are hot.

Question... why 215's on a 9" wide rim? Would any wider tire rub the fenders or struts?

Kept to 215's cause of the low power output of this car, and my low skill level in drifting lol. It did well on the stock tires and suspension so I decided to stick with 215's for now.

Got them from wheeldude.com a loooooong time ago, he can still get em though. The car still accellerates the same far as I can tell, havent tracked it or anythin yet though. The next drift event isnt until early Sept They are pretty close to stock wheel weight I think, goin by the arm scale lol.

17x9 torques are 1lb lighter than stock. Your DZ101 are 1lb heavier than stock.

So you are dead even but have 2 more inches, better looking offset, and a much better looking wheel. Nice.

i'm really surprised - in a pleasant way - that rota is able to keep the weight down on
these rims. they're not as light as the original product, but for them to come so close
to OEM weight is a huge plus. i didn't think i would ever consider Rota as an option,
but now . ..

they look great on your car. excellent fit. do you have any plans to track them ?
