6 Spoke Rims?
Hey. It's me again. Well, I'm on the hunt for some rims and I've narrowed my choice to either five or six spokes. If I go with five, then it'd be either Nismos, Axis Hiros, or Axis Matrix.
I also like six spoke rims. So, that leads me here. I was wondering if youse guys can help me find a set of either 19" or 20" six spoke rims that are TPMS compatible. I'm looking for a staggered set, possibly 9.5" front and 10.5" rear both with +25 or less offests. Please post links, pics, etc. Thanks in advance. |
almost impossible to run19x 10.5 with a +22 offset without a negative 4-5 camber

with a 9.5 you could probbaly pull it off but you need to get your inner fenders trimmed or rolled. not to mention a tire size with a tinner width probably 245/255 or so....

i'd understand running up to a 10" maybe. but i dont know about no 10.5

Oh, btw...this isn't for my 8. These rims are intended for my Z. |

Here are my 6 spoke. They are BIM Creativestudio Driftmasters, AKA Bridgestone Japan. Although they are not TPMS compatible Bridgestone has a massive line of wheels and you just might find something you like. The ones I have I think come in 4 colors. here is one of the links. I had them imported and shipped to my house from Memory Fab in Calf. Great company and shipping was only $100.00. I also put that link in.

Thanks for the inputs. I'm looking for something more on the lines of this:
http://www13.ocn.ne.jp/~craft4/shop/...shallen_sx.jpg This is an AME Shallen SX. Sweet wheel. The only issue is they are, similar to HRE, made to order, forged wheels. That means, they are over $2k per. :Eyecrazy: |
you should do some do-lucks, I think they would look sick on your blue :)
http://www.splparts.com/Parts/Univer...ck/default.htm to give you an idea if you're not familiar with them ;) edit: I think Jline makes a nice 6 spoke too, can't find pics yet though :P |

Anyhoo...... Canary8, Dude...those are sick! That look is EXACTLY what I'm looking for! Is 18" the biggest they come in? Cause, I'm looking for atleast 19" and maybe 20" in that same style. Do you know of any variant brands that make 'em bigger in that style? The wheel wells in my...*ahem*...car...are pretty big. So I'm looking for something to fill 'em in... |
Volk TE37 20 inch model FTW!!!!!!!!!!! :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock: :rock:
not tpms compatible but the sickest 6 spoke wheel in the land! http://rayswheels.co.jp/indexe.html http://img103.imageshack.us/img103/2553/bigou3.jpg |

I'm diggin' these 5Zigens too, but they are not compatible with tpms and don't quite trust the "banding" method [I posted a DIY I found on the Z forum for tpms banding] quite yet. Here's the Gravis 1's by 5Zigen:
https://www.rx8club.com/attachment.p...chmentid=98732 ac3mastuh, Dude, those would be perfect too! But I'm afraid to ask "how much?" I know the 19" TE37s run a good $750 a rim. My budge is $3k with tires...btw, how do you know they're not tpms compatible? I've read that all Volks 1-piece rims should be TPMS compatible...am I wrong? |
i like the super sixes.

Jline's 6rl2 (maybe in a different color though) :D: http://www.jlinewheels.com/images/wheels/500_6RL2.jpg more info on their lineup here: http://www.jlinewheels.com/models.html I think they're gorgeous, would look insane on your car in a black chrome or anthacrite finish, or even the high polish as well. Come to think of it, I really like these as well, they're CCW's and I had originally planned on getting some for my 8, these would look super shweet as well: http://www.ccwheel.com/files/gallery...s/sp600/1l.jpg they're called SP600's, and more info is available here: http://www.ccwheel.com/files/wheelpr...l.php?id=sp600 I don't know if either of these would work with TPMS, but who cares anyway right? :D: |

Am I just really cheap or does all the nice wheels cost grip? |

Am I just really cheap or does all the nice wheels cost grip? edit: not sure if you checked them out, but those CCW's I entioned are extremely light, also forged, custom made to your car etc. and not nearly as pricey as the JDM stuff :) |
yeah, CCW stands for "complete custom wheels!" sound 'spensive, bro. but they are nice. i appreciate your help and lack of sarcasm. good looking out. i may just go with the Nismos, Hiros, or g35's...i'm so stressed. its a pretty big purchase for me and i don't want to get a wheel i'll regret later on and i also don't wanna run into crazy debt for some wheels, either. feel me?
anyhoo, right on and----bump! ;) |
The CCW's are middle of the road cost wise, they won't be as cheap as Enkei's or other more readily available off the shelf type wheels, but they're not HRE priced either. These aren't 6 spoke, but maybe they'll work :D:

Yeah man...you said it. But the gaping hole wouldn't be in my wallet...it'd be in my credit report! :rollingla Who's got $5k cash to drop on wheels [without tires] anymore? Atleast, I know I don't. Any other suggestions? |
