Default Gold SportMax 962 installed!

Just installed Sportmax 962's. 19/9.5 rear and 19/8.5 front wrapped in Falken 452's. Tire sizes are 275/30/19 and 245/35/19. Def a change from my black Ruff 278's. But a change for the better in my eyes. Took a little to get used to but looks great!!

The rears need spacers but other then that they look great. What would really be unique is if you stripped the lip and painted them gloss or satin black and left the center gold. Think about it.

I actually have some 20 mm spacers but didnt put them on yet. I have to fix a stud on one first. Also have to put on my camber arms. Black lip would look awesome too!

Looks good! Think I like the style of the Rota's a bit better but they look very similar.

For a budget wheel I always forget about those. They look great! Too bad the lips are just a machined finish instead of a mirror, but still a nice looking wheel for the cost. The gold on your black looks stellar.

Yea waiting on my camber arms to get here this week then im going to see if my 20mm spacers will work. The negative camber in the rear is pretty bad so its hard to see exactly what size spacer im going to use. I have some 20mm spacers but I think thats a little to much.


Hey guys do u think the rear tires are to small being a 275/30/19 and the fronts a 245/35/19. I believe thats a larger diameter tire in the front now.

Those are the same width tires i'm running on my Rota P45's, 245/40/18 on fronts and 275/40/18 on the rears... Good balance.
