Im_DANomite 05-28-2006 03:22 AM

cuz 19inch rims are heavier, cost more, tires cost more and generally dont help performance :) click on my garage in my signature to see the rest of the car ;)...

my deck at the house haha

Im_DANomite 05-29-2006 08:17 PM

seems like it would work for both

RA-Eight 06-09-2006 01:45 PM

Question for you guys, did you install the 90 degree angle valve stem that came with your Volk wheels?

I'm totally confused because I had these installed, because the stock tpms was not compatible with the GTS, but for whatever reason, no TPMS light! (at least not yet)

Thanks,
Ra

BigOLundh 06-09-2006 03:23 PM

So do you have the TPMS Sensor in now?

NgoRX8 06-09-2006 03:28 PM

being two piece the sensors should not fit anyway. glad your not getting the TPMS warning light. hopefully it continues. *knock on wood*

RA-Eight 06-09-2006 05:11 PM

The stock tpms doesn't come close to fitting. Although, discount tires said they can order a set that will lay flush and held in place by a metal strap that hugs the whole rim. It's a pretty penny. We'll see how long the light stays off before I order.

I didn't look closely at the angled valve stem that came with the wheels, but any chance it has some sort of dummy fooling sensor? :scratchhe

FABRO 06-10-2006 02:23 AM

took my rx8 like 3 or 4 days for some reason before the tpms light started to blink. I had the same problem with my gt-n's, and now Im just used to driving around w/ the light blinking.

RA-Eight 06-11-2006 10:12 AM

Thanks Fabro, it lit right up today...dummy fooling sensor, what was I thinking???

NgoRX8 06-11-2006 01:31 PM

:(

HiTMaNN 06-11-2006 03:06 PM

Canada doesn't have TPMS they are over rated anyways, we got the headlight washers instead :)

presequel 06-12-2006 10:41 PM

i really like the le37t in gloss black. any idea where to order?

StealthFox 06-12-2006 11:45 PM

mm, go to mackin industries's website and look under their CA distrbutors and any of those places will be able to order exactly how you want your wheels

Very nice.

That reminds me, I still need to post my wheels and officially join the Rays wheel owners club. Someone needs to make a badge that we can display in our signature and show-off our affiliation. :evil_laug

XDEEDUBBX 06-19-2006 11:50 AM

Very nice! These are my fav wheels right now, and am seriously thinking about getting some when my current rubber is finished. Are your's staggered like BigOLundh's or 8.5 all round? I'm on the fence right now, but am leaning towards a non-staggered setup. Anyway, looks great!

BTW, what suspension setup are you running?

Rx7Roadster 06-19-2006 08:37 PM

Thanks for the compliments

Rims are staggered. I have a stock suspension right now. The rears did rub the fender lip a little when there were 4 people in the car and you went over a big dip. Havent checked the alignment yet because I dont usually have that many people in the car. A little more camber should fix that problem though.

JOHNRX8 06-20-2006 08:32 AM

I want to lower the car but i would like to put coilovers on and as of right now it sounds like all of the units available are too stiff. I wouldnt mind a little bit of stiffness, (talking about the car!), but I dont want to make it a back breaker! The search go's on.

NgoRX8 06-20-2006 11:21 AM

some are stiff, but not annoying stiff. coilovers have adjustable dampers
