what are these 15" and 16" things you talk of? How do you spell that? "W... E... A... K"?

18+ or GTFO. Your car is gonna stand out like a midget in purple pantaloons, do yourself a favour and make sure your wheels are just as outrageous.

What's the stud pattern chef. Got some 15x8 +25s that aren't on the starlet yet and some 15x8 +15 sportmax that I can organise both 4x100

[scandyflick]

fifteens a dirty word. seriously.

[funkymonkey]

yeah, that shit always gets you arrested or put on some watchlist

lol It was the Sportmaxx 501s that I originally ordered (16x8 +15s...), but after waiting 2 months and being told I needed to wait another 6 weeks by the Aussie "supplier" apparently due to a second stuff up in the order from the warehouse in the US, I told him he could stick it and give me my money back. Feel free to PM me for the name of the company.

The problem I had with going too small is the massive radius of the guard lip, it tends to make smaller wheels look like shopping trolley wheels, regardless of how wide they are. The only solution with smaller diameters is to dump it stupidly low, which then makes it too impractical for every day use.

I ended up buying the white Meisters, which despite being 7" width (bear in mind the factory alloy is 5.5", the steelies are 5") should be cherry ripe for the offset. Now to hunt down a factory strip kit in white to match...

UGLY?

I really think you need to have another look,. modular one piece forged wheels extremely lightweight as used on some rather tasty European cars. Here is an example of an Audi R8 and a R35 GTR.

I dont mean to nitpick, but those Panasport F1 look like they belong on a Commodore and those meshies, on a 1960 Toyota of some sort.

[scandyflick]

oh well, when you put it that way...

... i still dont like them. especially for a cube.

[Adelaideprosound]

Fair enuff champ.

I for one think they are awesome lightweight wheels, yes they arent the best looking but sizes being available up untill 12" width, im definitely going for a set or two .

[Iron Chef]

Wheels that look good in 18x12 don't always look so good in 17x7 though

I bought the Meisters, in case you all missed it.

[Nightcrawler]

I didn't miss it .... vnice purchase there Kristian!

[Nightcrawler]

Actually, while I have your attention for a moment, have you ever seen leather (MSpec) R34GTR seats come up at the auctions? Do you know a rough price I would be looking at?

ok total votes at 49, lets see how many people vote after the wheels have been purchased!
