New Rims On 34 Gtt

Recommended Posts

So i'm looking into buying some lenso D1R's, and not completely sure what colour to get, as well as offsets, etc. My r34 gtt is black with an impul kit (see pictures below) , and will be getting smoked indicators all round fairly soon unless you think clear might suit this set up better? I got my brother to do a really quick photoshop job on a picture of the car to give some sort of idea as to what they will look like in both black w/ red line, and aluminium w/ polished lip. Personally i'm heading towards the aluminium look with smoked indicators, but that's where i'd appreciate some constructive comments (none of the usual "oh they're bad rims anyway" "they're heavy" etc etc.) They will be street wheels, not for the track, so therefore i dont mind if they have a bit of weight or arent built to the same quality as some proper jap wheels. The size and offsets of rims, as well as tyre sizes i'm looking into running are 18x9 +12 225/40/18 (front), 18x10 +22 255/35/18 (rear). Would these be the best size to fit? I looked in the R34 Picture thread and "SiNNO" is running this setup, so i know it can be done, but my car is sitting a bit lower than his, so i might need a bit of camber? Is this the most aggressive setup I should run? These photoshopped pics give no justice to the amount of dish there would be, especially at the rears. :) Couldnt get pics to sit in here from photobucket, so have to upload them the crap way :) .

not a fan of the wheels at all but if i had to choose id say go the black and f**k off the red line....

I see where you're coming from, but i'm only looking into getting them because they are a cheap wheel with good dish. Not looking to spend a large amount of money at the moment to get some volk/work/gram lights.

They'll look tuff! The black D1Rs won 'Best Wheels Award' at last year's R34 GT-R 10th Anniversary.

That doesn't say much for the people voting or the wheels that were there. I hope it's just clueless people voting for Chinese wheels over multi-thousand dollar lightweight race wheels.

Not sure what happened to the other image but if you google them it'll show how it looks on a black S15.

I'm thinking of getting them for my white GTT, or fix up my Rays Nismo LMGT2's on the rears for $150 each...
