Shopping For Rims!

[Tezza]

Hey guys,

I am looking at getting new rims for my car, which I recently imported.

I dont know what to go for 18" or 19"

I am decided on the 8" front and 9.5" at the rear!

I am even decided on the rim! good old Impuls in chome or shadow chome!

what I dont not know is what size to go for.

What profile of tyre would be on each size of rim?

I have a ute at the moment with 20" running 30 profile tyres on hard suspension.

My critera are;

I would like a more enjoyable ride this time round! and to suit performance!

What do I get? please help! with advise.

Did you get a GTST or a GTR?

...it makes a difference

Cool, in that case, i have a set of 18x9.5's all round, stretched 235's over them, if you're just coasting along and not holding the wheel it will tramline, but as long as you're holding the wheel its ok

Ride isnt that bad, i have TEINs aswel though, so they dont help

Thing is, ive got Kuhmo Ecstas on there and they're shit, decent grip in the wet until you plant it (yes all 4 wheels light up) but they're hard wearing so you get value for money, andway thats a different side of it, its the rims you need

Most people get them from Tempe Tyres in Sydney, they deliver aswel so if you're not in Sydney they can still help you out, personally id never buy anything from them again due to past experiences, but its up to you

Anything else, just ask
