Hi Guys
Looking for a little of an advice here. I am thinking of this wheels

http://www.felgenoutlet.de/de_en/196...black_Polished

I was planning to get 9,0 with offset 35 in the back and 8,0 with offset 32 in front.

I am planning to run on standard alignment but I wanted to get wider tires in the back. Was thinking of 255 35 and possibly 225 40 in front.

Does it make any sense?

The other option I am tempted are these wheels

But it comes just 8,5 offset 35 and I am not sure if I could run the same tyre set up with wider tyres in the back?

Thanks for your help

I sat down for a meal and chose to eat a nice steak. Quickly changed my mind and scooped up the possum a couple of miles back.

I know everyone has different taste, and thats fine. These don't do it for me though. They look like rims for an off-road diesel truck or something....

Why do you hate your car so much?

I didn't ask to comment on my taste I ask simple question if this sort off wheels(mean the size) would go well with tyres' sizes I have quoted.

If anyone has anything productive to add please feel free so If you want to slack my taste can do as well whatever:P

dori. · 04-27-2013, 07:26 AM

well on the 1st wheel, it might poke a bit out back on a 255
(I also recommend against that wheel)

2nd one just run a square setup, it'll be fine.
that wheel is at least a bit more decent. any weights on these?

kioton32 · 04-27-2013, 01:12 PM

I agree with Dori. You should go with the second set because they will look better imo and just square then up... 8.5 around with 245/35 tires...check the clearance in front before lowering to much though...

Adrenaline · 04-27-2013, 04:51 PM

Thanks guys that is more helpful then slacking the wheels. I have seen it here and thought that maybe it would look ok http://www.automobilesreview.com/aut...zunamee/57135/

I have planned to go with black wheels originally and probably I just stuck to that plan.
Maybe http://www.felgenoutlet.de/de_en/196...zma_PureSports

This was my first plan http://www.felgenoutlet.de/de_en/196..._Red_Lettering but it comes just with 8 nothing bigger and I wanted wider tyre then just 225

Do you think I can lower an inch? with square setup and 245/35 tyre?

I don't think there would be a problem.

I like those OZ's tho. Would give your car an STI look.

Please god no on the first set. Second ones could look cool though.

Xauterus · 04-28-2013, 05:35 AM

I think those OZ wheels would really look great on your car.
