That is the limit on what would fit.

WanKeL FD RX-7 03-28-2005, 08:34 PM cool thanks guys jenkins-crew 03-28-2005, 08:59 PM Anytime, glad we could help! Put some pics up later :D murix 03-29-2005, 02:29 AM murix why did you go for teh 8.5" ide rims? they looks sweet. re-amemiya has teh same rims on their 8. loks great. but wouldn't 245/40/18's fit on the stock rims? i'm pretty sure a buncha' people on here have done it. don't get me wrong if i had teh money i'd get those rims or maybe some ro_ja by rays. :D ah if only my money tree would start growing. Because I could. ;) I did in fact put those tires on the stock rims the first time around and they worked great. These are a little wider, a little lighter, a little farther out to the edges, and a little better looking. Minor changes add up to a big difference when done right in my book. slllygrl10 03-29-2005, 10:02 AM That should fit takahashi 04-04-2005, 04:31 PM I am running Enkei RP03 35mm offset in a 18x8.5 w/245/40/18 on all four corners.

Lower 30mm without problem. GREAT! The size shot makes me drool and the rear shot makes me high :p. They are great price cf. the Volks. They are light too. I think it is in a range of 8.x kg. Have you weight it? |
