NEW WHEELS!!! TSW snettertons with eibach sportline springs

RocKstR350z · 11-07-2009, 08:44 PM

So they may not be baller status volks or rays but i still love them. Tsw snettertons wrapped in dunlop direzzas. Lowered with eibach sportline springs and ichiba rear control arms. I think im gonna get some spacers now tho. Any opinions on what size to get WITHOUT rolling my fenders ???

Wheels:
front- 18x8.5
rear- 18x9.5

Tires:
front- 225/45
rear-245/45

Based on the last pic, maybe 15-25? what offsets do you have now?

RocKstR350z · 11-07-2009, 08:58 PM

15 offset all the way around

RocKstR350z · 11-07-2009, 09:11 PM

All opinions welcomed. Just be easy. I know there not the greatest name brand and all. MY spacer question still remains

quietkilla6 · 11-07-2009, 09:28 PM

yea 15. I like them though. Ima need alittle more lip but I'd wear them.

bmxpert57 · 11-07-2009, 11:29 PM

RocKstR350z · 11-07-2009, 11:36 PM

solidsnkae... I dont get what you mean by that??

DaProdigy · 11-08-2009, 12:05 AM

i think they look good... diversity is always a good thing. they look good for a toned down z

sdZ33 · 11-08-2009, 12:37 AM

You aint gonna get away with spacers without rollin fenders on a 45 series tire... It happened to me... But I needed new tires so I went with a 40 series and got no rubbing at all

You spent money on wheels that look worse then stock. I always tell people it's better to save and get what you want then to settle and waste money on horrible offset wheels that look tucked and tiny

Z1 Performance · 11-08-2009, 06:20 AM

who spec'd those tire sizes for you? they should get out of the game asap

Jay'Z · 11-08-2009, 06:23 AM

You would be better off with fake Volks/Folks....

stradaONE8 · 11-08-2009, 06:31 AM

You should be running 245/275 F/R not 225 and 245, that's just awful for that width wheel.

quakerroatmeal · 11-08-2009, 06:59 AM

Maybe he wanted semi-semi-stretch tires?

or he thought he had to stay with stock sized tires.

Rims aren't the WORST rims of all IMO..it could just use some spacers. For +15 offset they should tuck in a lot still.

AroundMyHorn · 11-08-2009, 07:20 AM

There are 2 things you can do OP. Sell the rims and get something new, or leave this forum. The reason I say this is because the more you stay here the more you'll see other people's wheels and ultimately regret your decision.

You said you like the wheels. Sweet. Leave this place before you hate them.

those are definitely not +15 offsets. i would say +35 at best. tire fitments are fail as well.

DavesZ#3 · 11-08-2009, 07:38 AM

Nice looking wheels but you should have considered upsizing the tires to 245/275. In any case, as long as you're happy with them - F-the-haters.

Uchiha_ · 11-08-2009, 08:47 AM

I think they look good. btw, how is the ride with those springs

That's what I thought when he said +15 all around

Doesn't look +15 to me

If you like it - who cares what we think but since you posted pix of your car beware of constructive criticism and not get butt hurt.

I agree with some of the posts above.
