Off topic. What happen to kenpachi? Aizen is kick *** too.

 

It used to be Ichigo's hollow mask. I switch it up sometimes.

 

+1 to closet Bleach/anime fans.

Anyways, back to waiting for my set of 18x9+35 Advan RS' to arrive. Gonna be a while......

That is all.

 

w00t w00t more closet bleach fans out from the woodwork

Ichigo's new Hollow mask is better than his original IMO.

WTF I miss 2 weeks and he gets a new mask damn...

On topic:

Good choice Poison. I'm noticing a lot of people are rushing into buying wheels and they end up going with something generic that they'll some what regret later. I always say to hold off until you have some money to burn on something nice that or if you stumble on a deal like i did. heh

The picture is huge so i just linked them

 

Yup, just a couple different viewpoint

 

100% agree

 

I was going to buy the Tenzo Dc-5 version2 or the Dc-6 version2 but I started thinking about it I just dropped the car an got new tires so why rush it an spend money I can save an throw down on a set of volks. I looked around I found the ichiban v2 spacers for 216 full set so I'll go with that

 

Yep, I picked them up this morning. They look far better than I expected. I think the lowering due to the 17" rim and the 40 tires really help out. I expected the gap to look pretty bad, but it didn't bother me in the least bit - really pleased. It doesn't look cheap or too bling, it has what I'd call a "classy sports look". I haven't pushed it too hard yet, but I sped through a couple of corners while driving around to bed in my Axxis ULTs and Centric blanks. On the OEMs with Nitto NT555s, the car when whipping through turns felt less stable due to the added height from the ground, and with DSC on, it was super annoying as sometimes it would pull through really well, and the other half it would activate the DSC really aggressively causing loud crunching sound and loss of acceleration. Now, it pulls through with full grip like a go kart on rubberized asphalt. The tire is much quieter too, at first I thought the shop had done something to the engine. The very slight turbo-like sound from before is now very prominent. It wasn't until I noticed that the whistling at the window was much louder too, that I realized that it was due to barely being able to hear the tires now. I'll test harder w/o DSC after 200 miles. If it weren't for the 3.6% odometer bump, I'd stick with these from here on out. I've read some reports that the sidewalls on the Evos are soft, especially for track. I'll see when I push these harder, but I think the low profile helps.

I got laid off today after almost 5 years on the job, so I'm glad that I have these and an AFE short shifter and a shift stop to install this weekend to offset the pain. Of course, I'm choosing to live in denial of the $ pain that I'll be feeling soon.

 

I am new to buying rims and tires so please help a brother out. Im planning on getting size 18x8.5 (front and rear) with 5/114.3 +45mm offset. 1-will these rims fit my rx8 without any modifications? 2-what are the specs for tires?

 

Yes they will fit, and a 245/40/18 would be the best choice for tire size.

 

how about 245/45/18? will these rub? Im also concerned about bending rims wit low profile tires.

 

With that side you can throw a 275 on there and it wont rub...

245/40 is the same height as 225/45...You don't need a higherside wall...Your driving a sports car, do you want to have worse performance?

Apparently.

 

Im from NY and if u do not know we have plenty of hidden poleholes lol. thanks for the info bro.

 

Im curious, what size rims and tires u got?

 

18x9.5 +45, 275/35/18 and 18x9 +35 275/35/18

 

Hi guys. I have 18x8.5 & 18x9.5 +35 off set front & back. What size of spacers should I get to make my set up more flush?
Thanks

 

Depends on how low you are.....I say 10mm in the front.

 

I wanna know...would this fit in my 8 ??

front
19x8.5
Bolt Pattern 5x4.5/114.3 - 5x4.75/120.7
Offset 35

Rear
19x9.5
Bolt Pattern 5x4.5/114.3 - 5x4.75/120.7
Offset 35

 

Yea with 245/40/18 in front and 275/35/18 in the rear. May need a fender roll depending on camber and ride height. Make sure it is the 5x4.5 bolt pattern

 

that rim has like 10 holes in it ...do u think its universal for Bolt Pattern 5x4.5/114.3 - 5x4.75/120.7 ??

 

ughh I dislike those kinds of wheels ("one size fits all"). What are you going to do with the other 5 holes?

 

It's the rotational mass that's the issue. 10:1

 

Hey guys buying some new wheels and I need to know if this combo will fit

Front - 18 x 8.5 +35 offset on stock potenzas (225/45/18)

Rear - 18 x 9.5 +35 offset on stock potenzas

Not sure which offset is best, I like the flushed look but I can choose either 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45 or 50 offset and Im not sure which one. any suggestions are welcomed.

Also, which one would u guys get
