Hey everyone my dc2 is in getting resprayed, orange with charcoal bonnet. Should look mint. I want black rims with a chrome lip, just wondering....

I have coilovers and the guards have been rolled, what size can you tuck under these cars before you start getting problems? I used to have 17's and they were sweet as


Cheers everyone.

[IEVAQ8]

depends on offset, i had 18x7.5 and didnt rub at all with coilovers slammed and stock guards

[nomcice]

yea, i want like 19's... what was the offset on the 18's?

cheers mate

In all honesty... anythin bigger than 18 is 2 big 4 a teg, but if ur goin show stylez... this is what they'll look like....

The white dc2r has 19's n the pink dc2 has 20's...

Sick bro!!

Sick bro!!

sorry it dosent have overpriced JDM parts on it . stop being so narrow minded it would be a pretty boring world if we all had the same taste.


anyway , id stick to 18's personaly (not only because 18s look big on a teg) but its also legal wich will probably save you some headaches in the future

[Lukey]

what sort of retard would put 19 inch rims on a type r.

Did I say anything bad? No.
When I see massive chromes, there is a sudden urge to just yell out Sick bro, or sick Yulleh.

I actully love the Work emotion CR Kai's in chrome. Sorry, i've seen way too many cheap tempe rims crack and snap. JDM rims too also crack, but never seen any in real life. Buckled... yes, seen plenty of them.
18's would be better than 19's, although anything bigger than 16's on a DC2 just decreases performance like crazy. 17's are bareable.

The point of large chromes is to make it a cruiser though yeah? Why make your car more uncomfortable by putting 18's, 19's?

On another note, why do people that have chromes spell things with "Z" instead of "S"? Wheelz? LOL.

[A-man]

yeh im of similar opinion i got 17s on my da9.. and thats from 14s i think. but i dont notice the difference but looking from that pink one, that has an intercooler in the grill if u spend that much on a turbo/sc kit and all the headache putting that on and then put heavy chrome wheels on it sorta defys the point. but thats my opinion... however a nice big set of wheels not chrome i still sorta think a little overkill. especially on something like a turbo teg or type R...

its like a white guy trying to be black hes gonna cop critism but at the same time theres others like it...

but i never said i dont like the wheels and they do look kinda cool just not my bag


and as for jdm..... i dont understand the hype about it

[dc4t]

either extremes are just stupid (jdm or big chrome wheels), why not just be practical and put the right size wheel on the right car? eg. dc2=16" dc5=17"

all styles of cars can be appreciated but theres no point in turning a fast sports car into a cruiser, defeats the purpose. at the same time people are tryna turn luxury euro's into sports cars.. they're no better

a fast sports car cant really be used on the street without getting into sh!t, im getting my license back in a month after losing it for 22months for that reason. I just want a cruiser, with biggish rims


thanks everyone for your opinions

In that case... get rid of the fast sports car, so other people can use it for it's intended use, and buy yourself a cruiser.
How can it be a cruiser, if it's not going to be comfortable.

So you are decreasing the performance of your car, so you can't find it practical to drive on public roads, and therefore you can't speed? :thumbdwn:

u can still 'cruise' with 17" wheels right.. wats rong with that

[nomcice]

didnt want opinions like that, its MY car and i drive it how I want, its comfortable for me, to the OP, i asked what size rims would fit, not advice on selling my car and buying a cruiser

[Tegzieboi_BAR]

lol, yeah honestly go 4 whatever u liek at the end of the day its ur car... i used 2 have 17's on my dc4 n i loved the look but yeah after gettin some jap 15's im refusing 2 put the 17's back on coz of the performance n ride quality, wen i get enough cash i'll settle on some nice 16's tho.

But yeah, i rekon 18 inches is plenty if ur goin 4 big wheels

[IEVAQ8]

18's fit and look perfect i think on a dc2r if ur not too fussed on performance.
like i said 18 x 7.5 +55 offset 215/35/18 tyres with tein s/s perfect fit
