Meh, I was ballin on stockies with full mugen kit for aaages lol... 15" stockies the only way ftw!.

[ganj3]

I like your style! :D

i guess we both learnt the hard way, cant do sh*t with baller rims LOL

[aero]

the 19s are back on! sale fell through :( so, gonna be saving up for a camber kit for the rear wheels.

so far ive gotten a quote from 999 on the skunk2 rear camber kit, which is about $550 just for the kit on its own and $750 for the kit, including installation and wheel allignment.
has anyone has ever installed one themselves, and if its worth paying the extra for labour and allignment etc or better to diy?

[ekdez]

thats a rip for camber kit. i wouldnt pay much more then 400 for one.

[FallenAngel]

Lucky u dez =P

[ekdez]

=] thanks man!
ill tip you ;)
ill go bank tommorrow =]

[.k.]

watcha reckon dc5r wheels (silver w/ red H centrecap) on an fd would look like? i found a guy selling for 550 w/ tyres in bris

[aero]

spray them black :D

got a Q.. so today i drove my girlfriend to uni and when i went to take her back home from her exam i noticed that my front left tyre was considerably less inflated than all other tyres. i drove to the nearest petrol station and pumped up the tyre again...
it was fine for the next few hours, but on my way back home at about 11pm i decided just to pull over to a petrol station and check tyre pressure... and the front left was at about 24psi.. well below what it should be...

so this is probably a puncture or sumthin? im riding 19s and wondering where i go from here. can they easily just patch the tyre if it is a puncture, or is it more likely that i need to by a whole new tyre?

[JOhnnyFD]

what tyres u on?

did u find any puncture holes? if so u can easily patch it up with tyre rubber cement and filler.. u can buy that from any car store.

if not, there could maybe b a crack along the tyre wall surface

[ekdez]

your not going to have any air in it tomorrow by the sounds of it LOL..
probs ran over some building equipment.. eg a nail or some shrappers or debris
happens all the time..
if its a nail or something a tire place will just fill it up with a plug.
if you have a gash on your tire wall or something on the wall u will need a new tire.

[Stig]

i had the same problem with my 20s, you need a new tyre

its also funny cos, it happened to my left front tyre too haha

its cos the tyres are stretched too much and the seal breaks off, or sumshit like that

back to stockies ftw!

[Stig]

well after a full 24 hours, on my way home again i went to check my tyre pressure, and it was the same as all the other 3 three wheels. i've no clue if it will slowly deflate again or not. ill have to keep a check on it..

btw my tyres arent stretched. i read ur thread and u were on 225 tyres, whereas im on 235s for all 4 wheels. ill just keep a close eye on it for now to see how it plays out.

[Stig]

hmm 235 shouldnt even deflate at all, that should be enough give for it to strech... well with my one it started going flat overnight, pissed the hell outta me

[ekdez]

im running a 225 on a 9" rim.
no problems yet.
i want to get a 215 lol... stretch fit ftw!
just have to stretch the right tire otherwise it will cost $$$

stretchtyre.com yo

[Stig]

you are on 18s arent you ekdez? more wall for it to flex!

[black8thgen]

dez is on 19s for those bbs isnt he?

[ekdez]

nah 18 =]
i heard falkens and conti's are the best for stretching..
same as nankangs.. but they horrid tires..

worst ones are kuhmo and some other ones.. cant think of n e thing atm.

[black8thgen]

ohh, wow they dont look 18 lol. prob cz ur car is slammd a lil bit

[aero]

hey dez, how's the rear wheels coping with the coilovers? still scraping with weight at the back? how does it cope with a full load, heavy boot or 2 people in the back?

[ekdez]

not fully slammed yet..
looking to lower the front another 2.5 - 3 inches
and the rear about 1.5 inches

but no, not scrubbing much.. i have my rear coils on +12 hardness on the n+ i like it stiff.

its just on HARD turning the tread will touch the lip of our fender.. but its only the tread which does nothing.. like the part where the tread ends and turns into the wall of the tire. so imagine these are a wheels []-[] on the top edges on the outside..

ill take a picture one day and show u.

a little hard to explain..

[Wayne]

anyone using FN2R wheels on FD2? just wanna know the offsets matching.. lol..

[black8thgen]

fits fine. someones done it before, forgot who, but good fit.

[Wayne]

without spacer?

[black8thgen]

yeh pretty sure no need for spacer

[aero]

i think it was Stig that had fn2r wheels on his fd. there werent any issues with it.

[Stig]

http://www.ozhonda.com/forum/showpost.php?p=2110753&postcount=3012

you are going to need spacers if you are on coils

if just stock supension/springs etc, yeah its fine

[Wayne]

u can fully turn ur steering to each side without spacer? that was sweet.. =)

[h3ndr4]

hi guys, what tyre you guys using for 18" rims ? I am deciding between Toyo T1R or Yokohama advan ... any suggestions?

[Stig]

edit - yep dc5r audm are +45.. same as stock fd1/2 wheels yeah?

[ks_b]

I have fn2r wheels on atm... don't need spacer and you can fully turn your steering. Thinking of selling it or swap with 08 sport wheels. anyone interest?

[warwick108]

hey ks_b ive always wanted to see what the fd looks like with fn2r wheels..care to show us some pics?..thanks

[Stig]

I have fn2r wheels on atm... don't need spacer and you can fully turn your steering. Thinking of selling it or swap with 08 sport wheels. anyone interest?

damn i wouldve been interested if the rims fitted my car, unfortunally it doesnt due to coils. just brought another set of sport rims lol, currently have 3 sets in my possession atm LOL

haha one is borrowed so i could get a set, now i have a set so thats two, and the other set is painted black and is just sitting there, doing know what im going to do with the black set, keep or sell... depends on the market i guess :)

[aero]

is that the set that was in the for sale section of OH? i was thinking about those, but there was some gutter rash, which put me off :(

i still wanna sell my 19s. my friend is willing to sell me his 17s, but atm i need bit more cash for em. hopefully ill get a bit of money from tax return.

[JOhnnyFD]

[Stig]

is that the set that was in the for sale section of OH? i was thinking about those, but there was some gutter rash, which put me off :(


yeah those were the ones, might just respray them gunmetal now if i have time

[warwick108]

hHmMm..not to shabby..but i still do prefer the 08 sports rims.. i still think those look the best on the fd's..

[black8thgen]

i got 08 sport rims, i wanna paint em black but im getting white ce28 replicas in 18" soon =/

[eeKayFouR]

i'll take ur civ sport wheels then? im running dc5r audm wheels atm pics to come after wash =]

[edmbranch]

im suprised i havent seen your car around the glen waverley area edmbranch

i don't like parking there =( i got hit 3 times at kingsway.. ppl just keep reversing into me.. drove past that area last night and heaps of modded fd's around.. so i'll keep mine in the garage :zip:

i only come out at 1 or 2 in the morning.. avocado smoothie from chinabar is :thumbsup:

[Wayne]

haha.. another night stalker here.. can meet up someday at midnight.. =)

3 black FDs.. xD

[edmbranch]

it'd be great to meet all the FD's.. it's uni break after all..

[warwick108]

ill be in aswell.. ^^.. im completely stock.. unelss i get my hands on edmbranch's sports rims.. lol

[edmbranch]

hahaha sorry bro.. at the moment i'm still keeping them :zip:

[Stig]

or else i wouldve brought them off him =p

[edmbranch]

haha what for, you've got 3 sets in your possession already..:p

[Stig]

doesnt hurt to have another set =D

what do you guys think bout the advan rg2 in 17x7.5+45?

http://www.j-specperf.ch/images/categories/advan_racing_rg_ii.jpg

[black8thgen]

i think you should get them now =D. seen them in 18s on an fd with full mugen kit (inc wing), looks damn hot. i would so get a set if i had the money

[aero]

man. those are hot.. but damn pricey

[ekdez]

wow stig..
big change from 20nkb's to 17rg's.
going from class/vip to race spec.
grab something unique =]

[ekdez]

just remember +45 offset your not going to have such a concave look, like in that picture

[.k.]

^^ +1.. maybe try in 18 too to help fill up the guards if you arent going to dump it. And +45 isn't that stock offset? who knows how much you need to bring the wheel upto the guard area? i've test fitted +37 and that was ok but sticking a bit out.. mayb 38/39/40?

[black8thgen]

nah dez is talking about the concavity of the wheel, like how the middle sticks in deep and the spokes have a sweet inner curve to them, looks damn hot, but yeah 45 offset will bring the center closer to the lip if im not mistaken

[edmbranch]

hey stig that would be a good set of rims for better cornering, i presume there's a reason for getting bucket seats..

here's what +45 of my rims look at the moment:
http://img200.imageshack.us/img200/8840/rimoffset.jpg (http://img200.imageshack.us/i/rimoffset.jpg/)

[Stig]

LOL yeah i just worked out the pricing of the 17x7.5+45 advan rg2 and it came roughtly to 3.4k, i thought it was 2.4k... so thats why i was thinking about it.
the 18's are like 3.7k, was thinking of the ssr type f in 18's but with the "shit" 7.5 width and offset the civic can handle you will never be able to get that concave look while maintaining enuf tyres to use those rims to go around a cnr quickly. for 4k i rather get a set of 19x8.5 work t1s.

[edmbranch]

wow.. they're quite pricey..

p/s stig i'm going glenny now! first time in days

[black8thgen]

oh shit thats pricey loool.

[black8thgen]

edm how much were ur xd9s?

[Stig]

i think my mate saw your car at glenny last night edmbranch haha, or a few nights ago

[edmbranch]

edm how much were ur xd9s?

around 2000.. they're reasonable but heavy rims.. it's all looks..

[edmbranch]

i think my mate saw your car at glenny last night edmbranch haha, or a few nights ago

nar i doubt it.. i was in the city :p a few nights ago.. yes.. cause i had to pick someone up there.. i just circle around the block.. don't like parking there

[ekdez]

lol stig. t1s is the same as nkb's :\
grab the ssr type f they hot like fire man.

[aero]

anyone ever had their wheels machined? i clipped a gutter a couple days ago and now there's a tiny 5cm rash on the lip. its a machined lip, so i wonder how much it would cost to get it fixed? anyone know?

[curtis265]

i haven't looked around this thread for long, BUT has anyone fit 18x8 with 50mm offset?

I was looking at RX8 rims..:angel:

[liquid23]

where do you guys go to get ray wheels?
i'm looking at Volk Racing GTF, VR.G10, Volk Progressiv ME all 19"

[black8thgen]

musecret - trader here can source rays wheels for u =]. and some other traders for sure.

[liquid23]

yeah pm them but never replied

[ganj3]

Have u tried Vision R in O'Connor, Perth?

[Stig]

i haven't looked around this thread for long, BUT has anyone fit 18x8 with 50mm offset?

I was looking at RX8 rims..:angel:

offset is a bit high even for oem suspension but yeah it would work

[liquid23]

nup haven't i'll check it out
been to tech9tyres though. don't like it because instead of helping you they go oh i don't think it will look good on your car you should try these. we have heaps of them and the look so good blah blah blah. like why not do what the customer is asking instead of promoting a brand that you would get big profits off. the bald headed guy is up himself as well.

[Wayne]

just import from japan.. =)

[liquid23]

wouldn't it be expensive if import from japan?
i'm not sure
i asked Vison R about the Volk Rays Limited Edition CE28N Genesis in 19x8.5
they said 4.6k or roughly. gotta send them a list of what i want and they will send me the prices back.

wow.. this wheels is nice.. why dont u just wait for next year jan for the Dry Carbon wheels from Weds.. hehe.. =)

http://evilism.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/weds-sport-carbon-fiber-wheel.jpg

[liquid23]

haha
i think those wheels will be like 8k lol
i've only got budget for half that

what good offsets are there for 19x8.5?
do i have to roll guards?

[black8thgen]

**** that would be an intense set up lol. 19x8.5.. i think 35ish offset people have been using for 18.5? i THINK, ask stig or ekdez they'd know better haha.

damn i really want ce28s lol... too bad i can only afford reps =[

[JOhnnyFD]

genesis rims.. saw those on jdmyard.. looks hawt

[Wayne]

anyone using 19x8.5 45+ on their FD? =)

[aero]

im running 19x8.5 +35. i will be going in next week to get the offset machined up higher to make it fit better on my civic. rear camber kit also going in, in the next few weeks

[.k.]

what'll be the offset after? so it'll sit in about more right? like atm it pokes out a lil bit

[curtis265]

i think it'll sit in more

[ekdez]

im running 19x8.5 +35. i will be going in next week to get the offset machined up higher to make it fit better on my civic. rear camber kit also going in, in the next few weeks

wont that ruin the structural integrity of the rim? rims have pressure points and are reinforced in certain parts.. arent they?

so by shaving off the inside of the rim to make it a higher offset.. u might run the risk of having an;

=> uneven surface which will make your rim sit on the axle wrong and off therefore giving you a wheel which doesnt spin straight, therefore uneven wear on your tires, remember one wheel which is off will eventually ruin the line of the other three wheels..

=> possible invisible cracks which wont be seen on inspection after the job is done, and could potentially turn into a crack and your rim break whilst driving.. pretty risky shit your dealing with dude.


btw which camber kit did you get?

i installed the skunk2 one and it didnt do shit for me LOL! and its on max setting.

[ekdez]

i also have a problem :(

i need new tires.. cos the ones i have atm arent stretched enuf and im scrubbing on the smallest of smallest bumps cos i lowered my car more.. but i wanna lower it MOAR!!! lol

as most of you know im running 18x8 and 18x9..

currently running 225/40 r 18 front and rear

i went to a tire shop today and they quoted me $150 each for ku31's which are pretty decent tires.. for the price..

they said.. i could run a 215/40 r18 or a 215/35 r18 on my rims front and back.. to stretch it even more..

just wanted to see if anyone reckons a 35 profile tire is too thin for the fd.. therefore making my rim look larger.. but it will look smaller in comparison to the car..

im leaning towards the 40 profile.. but im sick of the scrubbing noise LOL.

anyone running a 35 profile? lol

[Fung]

a dumb question for every1 who have aftermarket rims....

do you guys buy a 5th rim and put it as a spare?

[sKy.xD]

Im running 35 profile. If your going to go down to 35 prepare for more harshness! Once you go below 40 it gets shit lol.

[ekdez]

you got a side on shot of your car?
i wanna see how small the tires look LOL.

hmm.. it could be risky, but the guys im getting my wheels done say they've done it a bunch of times with no complaints. they could be lying, but they've done it to a few of my friends cars with no problems (i only went to them as a reference from friends).

a bit of a worry on the skunk2 camber kit tho. i was just about to order it next week. it seems like its the most available camber kit for the fd. i dont know if there are many other brands out there..
got any clue of what other types of kits are out there?

also, got some pics of the car with camber? i would like to see :D

btw, im running 235/35/r19 tyres on my car. scrubs and i dont think the tyre looks that thin at all. i think it looks fine, but ppl have seen my wheels and when i tell them they're 19s, they say "they look smaller. the tyres dont make them look like 19s" :confused: lol.

here's probly only side view pic i've got of my car. the lighting isnt that great to see the wheels, but it's all ive got for u. lol

check the reflection thread of the fd meet.. there's only one photo of the 18" with machined lip.. it's with 35 profile.. it's fully dumped too! :D

[ekdez]

yeah i think ill live with 40 profile! =] gonna grab some next week!
if they havent got them then 35 profile it will have to be..

when they mention profile.. they are talking about how many % of the tire is tread yeah? its not mm or anything.. like the first number 225 or 215 etc..

[edmbranch]

it's the sidewall's height so 35mm off from the ground.. if 35mm profile

woah.. it's as low as the key...
i want it lower! not happy with the height at the front atm.. rear is ok tho..

how much thread you still got left to go lower

[ekdez]

can put the body on the ground, but that isnt very practical, is it now.. lol

[ekdez]

probs 15 or 20%..
not legal.

[FallenAngel]

yes thats correct

[aero]

lol yeah.. it's a 20% 3m tint. not legal. but after 3 or 4 months, i havnt had any problems with cops.
.k. and i got it done by the same guy on our FDs


anyway, ekdez, have u got any pics of the rear wheels with that camber kit? even tho u say it doesnt do anything, can u notice any difference at all? even visually? lol

[.k.]

so you need the camber kit to change the camber to what degrees? -1/2 or not even that much?

[jpestrada115]

it's the sidewall's height so 35mm off from the ground.. if 35mm profile

just a correction - it's actually the aspect ratio. so say you have 225/40, 40 is the aspect ratio and of course 225 is the width in mm. sidewall height = width x aspect ratio / 100. so for 225/40 = 225 x 40 / 100 = 90mm side wall height.

[ekdez]

lol yeah.. it's a 20% 3m tint. not legal. but after 3 or 4 months, i havnt had any problems with cops.

yeha i got 20% tints too.. no problems for about a year now.

havent got any pictures of just the rear.. well not yet.. ill grab some for you soon.

mmm.. i reckon if my rear wheel wasnt a 9" rim and it was more slammed i'd notice a difference..for now its too high and too wide LOL.. you cant fit a piece of paper between the tire and the rear guard.. thats how tight fit my tire and guard are.. but ti did help a little but i expected it to help SO much more..

[black8thgen]

isnt ur dp of the rear?

[ekdez]

yeh but he wants whole rear like from the behind.

[black8thgen]

ohh right fair enough

[edmbranch]

just changed back to stock rims.. and my kit scrapes more on stock suspension.. have to snake up crossovers as slow as grannies.. at peak hour.. :(

don't know.. haven't measured it.. will do it in 2 weeks time when my coils arrive..

melbourne crossovers are pretty bad.. they have the deep dips to direct stormwater to the storm water discharge.. btw black8thgen, i'm heavy so the front springs have sagged to accomodate my weight.. u're lighter :p

[black8thgen]

ohhh what coils u getting?!

oh... haha fair enough. my car is also still pretty damn new.. so i dont think my springs have settled in at all lol

Thanks, curtis we should do fd meet maybe one day haha :D , I've seen a lot of modified fd around uni,last week I saw the fd year 09 with mugen kit looks nice

[curtis265]

Theres quite a lot hey! A few civil engineers have FD's.

I saw a white FD with a full mugen kit. Looks good :D Mugen kits are a must :D

09 has a mugen kit?

Yes, it does. you can check mugen website, they made it for 09.

Thinking of changing your rims, curtis?

09 has a mugen kit?

the 09 mugen kit is different to the 06 - 08 though.
is it possible to put the 06-08 kit on the 09 civic?

[liquid23]

the 09 mugen kit is different to the 06 - 08 though.
is it possible to put the 06-08 kit on the 09 civic?

the shape is a bit different so the 06-08 mugen kit will not fit onto the 09 models and vice versa. there is a specific mugen kit for 09 models ONLY. They even have 09 Type R kits

[curtis265]

Ooh mugen kit for 09 doesn't look quite right :(
Then again it already looks like a Type-R bumper

Hendra, you're a civil as well? Nah i'm not thinkin about changing rims for a while. It's fine as it is... 'cept for the fact that i was playin wif my fone and kerbed it the other day :(

[aero]

just get a 06-08 bumper if u dont like the 09 model front lol.




Hendra, you're a civil as well? Nah i'm not thinkin about changing rims for a while. It's fine as it is... 'cept for the fact that i was playin wif my fone and kerbed it the other day :(

lol naughty! but bl :(

[xqwzit]

we can swap, give me your 09 bumper and i give you my 08 with mugen lip
lol

[black8thgen]

you would have to transfer foggies as well, i think anyway lol.

[curtis265]

Actually i love the design of my stock 16's, but hate the fact that they are 16's

Man i wish we had faster engines in our civics here :( not save the 150kw engine for the type-R :(

[ekdez]

yeah im rolling on my 16" vti-L rims too hehe =] same as the ones in your DP...
still looks just as good slammed =] im tucking almost all of my tire tho on the rear HAHA

waiting for my new tires to come in then back to bbs =]

[ekdez]

yeah maybe but not atm lols.. broke now :(
so how's buddy club n+ treat ur fd? any problem at all? how low can u be with that n+? e

its worth it..
no problems what so ever and ive had them for a good few months now.
and they are turned up high on the dampers too so, very good quality! im very happy with it!
errrrmmm apart from the odd rattle, due to me putting my dampers to the stiffest.. (you cant avoid the odd rattle when you have it stiff) they are very quiet, just like oem sus. no clunks or creeks etc..

mm if you wanted.. you can put the car on the ground with 18"s.. just gotta have the guard work done. atm i cant fit my OEM jack under the car on my stockies :( i had to borrow my mates pro jack esh! a lot of playing around to get the car lifted high enuf to get the wheels off..

i actually broke my OEM jack.. cos my car fell of it :( it hurt my side skirt too.. the paint has spider webed.. ill show you laer what i mean..

ahh, that sucks. i don't really like the one for the 09.
what the lip in the first pic?


we can swap, give me your 09 bumper and i give you my 08 with mugen lip
lol

rofl, i like my 09 bumper, but i like the 06-08 mugen lip and foggies and not the 09 lip and foggies(cuz it doesn't give me the look i'm going for). so its kinda a crappy combo.

[liquid23]

ahh, that sucks. i don't really like the one for the 09.
what the lip in the first pic?

it is the type R lip for 09 bumper


damn i can't get genesis because they don't make the sizes for FD!!! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. It is cheaper than normal ce28n because of the financial crisis rays made it cheaper and made the sizes most common.
* 18 x 9.5, +28, 5 x 114.3
* 18 x 9.5, +34, 5 x 114.3
* 18 x 9.0, +35, 5 x 114.3
* 19 x 9.5, +22, 5 x 114.3
* 19 x 10.5, +22, 5 x 114.3

going to get the gunmetal ce28n now. $4380 i think. gotta decide in 2 days lol because his container is going to be all packed up n takes 4 weeks to make it. order now and receive in october. mmmm long wait

[black8thgen]

wow thats ages! man go for black or white! haha. nah gunmetal looks mint on silver ;)

[sKy.xD]

You reckon I would be safe if i lower my car so its .5 finger gap on 18 x 8" that I will be safe without rolling guards?

And wow how did the car fall on the jack? I would have shit my pants haha

[liquid23]

19 x 8.5 +42 offset is good yeah?
hmm wonder if should stagger offset..

damn man. ballin. i imagine that if ur gonna be getting those wheels for ur civic, ur probably gonna want a great set of tyres for them ($$$) ?

[liquid23]

yeah i was lookin at RE001 quoted for $350 each

[aero]

so nearly $6000 for just wheels and tyres?? man.. what else have u got planned afterwards?

[liquid23]

lol yeah
selling my other mods so i can keep it street legal :p
after wheels is the gruppeM intake which is on order already.
then audio

hope to see ur Thesis Quattro soon.. xD

And wow how did the car fall on the jack? I would have shit my pants haha

yeah you'll be ok =] is your offset is in the 40's?
so far i think ive lowered my car around 3 to 4" hence why i have problems..

well i think i tried to raise the car on the rear right jackpoint too high and i'm pretty sure i had 3 wheels off the ground cos my coilovers only give 1 to 2 cm's, and then it just fell away from me.. cos of the uneven weight.. lol

newbie mistake :(

[Stig]

19 x 8.5 +42 offset is good yeah?
hmm wonder if should stagger offset..

i was also thinking of getting the ce28n forumla silver edition in the same offset you mentioned above. but they conflicted with the front cos its hits the coils for me, so the only offset that i could prob take is 19x8.5+29 which sticks out WAYYY too much... well way to much to get a defect :o but it will look aggressive. thats an evo offset. so now im thinking about weds sa-70 18x8+36

[black8thgen]

just get an evo =D

[liquid23]

haha well australia is over populated with evos, silvias, skylines.
I just order in gunmetal

Hi Guys,

I just put the rims (19' x 8 x offset 38) couple of days ago with tyres 235/35/19.

Now I am experiencing rubbing both of the rear.

I am planning to rolled up the rear fender.

Any suggestion or other alternative guys?

Thanks

the place where i got my wheels put on rolled my guards for free coz my offset was +35. but it didnt help coz i still got scrubbing issues lol. which is why my wheels are currently back in the shop getting the offset machined up.
u may not want to do that tho, coz there is a risk in doing it...

so, i guess the best thing would probably be to roll ur guards (in most cases it does help), then get some stiffer suspension, like coilovers and perhaps a camber kit.

[ekdez]

beep1011 stretch your tires and get your guards rolled.

mmm...
gunmetal is takes till dec and arrive in jan -_-"... so choose new colour.

[JOhnnyFD]

those rims are real nice

[aero]

prettyyy..
black or gold!

[curtis265]

that one is a good rim!

[black8thgen]

HOT. damn get black bro =]

[XXS]

My 18 rims............

[aero]

just got my wheels machined up about 4mm.. so they're sitting at around +39 offset? surprisingly it has helped a lot. i was carrying my stockies in the car on the way home from the wheel shop and there was hardly any scraping noise in the back. compared to when i first had the wheels on with +35 offset, there was a big difference in the amount of scrubbing.

for the $50 i paid them to do it, id say it was a good spend. i know it will make the wheel structure slightly more fragile, but ill risk it. lol

here are my 19s after i got them back on the car. note that i am on stock suspension and the car only looks lowered because of the stock wheels inside the car and it was also parked on a slope :p

http://i167.photobucket.com/albums/u157/gh3ttolov3/P20-08-09_1213.jpg

[sKy.xD]

LOL ... Should keep them in there all the time hahaha

[aero]

i would, if they didnt take up half of the interior space of the car. maybe i need lead bricks lol.

[ekdez]

its come that time where i can afford new rims LOL!
i want these rims on my car !!! esh! reckon they'd go?

http://www.jlinewheels.com/images/wheels/500_SDMRL2_alt.jpg

so u selling u bbs? how much =O

[edmbranch]

[ekdez]

[black8thgen]

i wanna be diff =]

[black8thgen]

nawww, not that many people do i dont think =/. well i'm getting ce28 reps.. hahah. been wanting white ones for sooo long lol.

i still reckon ur bbs rims are the shit hahah, no need to change ;)

[ekdez]

ce28's dont suit my car there is a pic a couple of pages back of it on ce28's. no go LOL

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3232/3137122726_8fbab4f488_o.jpg

oh my i want them so bad!

[aero]

they're nice, but look too similar to ur current wheels
how bout a set of mugen gp wheels?

[black8thgen]

oh shit, thats dumpage. kissing the ground DAMNNN

[ganj3]

gunmetal is takes till dec and arrive in jan -_-"... so choose new colour.

What colour you end up choosing?

[liquid23]

the one posted on page 57. formula one silver

[ganj3]

Hey do you guys think that Bronze Volk Ce28s will suit a silver FD?

[liquid23]

some one in perth is selling their ce28ns bronze
think its "wn2r" or something number plate.
3.8k with toyo tyres. not quite sure about the whole thing just what friend told me.

i don't gold on silver personally but each to their own

[aero]

i think gold/bronze and silver work pretty well. ekdez has some gold bbs wheels on his alabaster silver fd. i think it looks pretty good

[DylanDesign]

am I honestly the only person with 18's on my FD who gets rubbing on the front right wheel when taking hairpins or entering crests at decent speeds? I haven't even had the car lowered..

[ekdez]

i think gold/bronze and silver work pretty well. ekdez has some gold bbs wheels on his alabaster silver fd. i think it looks pretty good

i actually have a satalight mist gold coloured car.. LOL..

and dylan. no i get scrubbing too..
what are your wheel and tire specs?

[edmbranch]

am I honestly the only person with 18's on my FD who gets rubbing on the front right wheel when taking hairpins or entering crests at decent speeds? I haven't even had the car lowered..

might be wrong camber set up.. get it aligned at negative camber..

[black8thgen]

im taking a serious look at some rims with these specs:

19x8 +40

nothing insane, but i don't want any scrubbing at all.. and im on stock sussy atm.. reckon i'd have any issues whatsoever? cos .k. had 19x8 +38 i think? and he said he was scrubbing kinda badly...

so yeah any help wud be appreciated lol...

[ekdez]

19x8 +40 is good specs.
i had 19x8 +42 before my current wheels.

the problem which people encounter is the tire size and profile..
you just gotta play around with tire sizes to find the best fit.. its expensive thats all..

[black8thgen]

ah okay sweet. cheers =D

[.k.]

nah i never had 19x8, probably aero.. but he got his offset machined down and hes getting coils so shud be sweet.

[black8thgen]

oh yea aero.. oopsie.. LOL. my bad =D

[aero]

lol yeah, i have 19x8.5 +35 and it was pretty bad on scrubbing with 4 or more adults in the car, so i got the offset taken up about 3-4 millimetres. the scrubbing is a lot less than before but on my current stock suspension, there is still a bit of scrubbing.

i wanna get some thinner tyre's but with a legal load rating so i dont get owned by cops. right now im on 235/35/19 and i wanna go 225s, but only 225 tyres for 19" wheels ive seen with load rating at 91Y or above and a relatively low profile are 225/40/19.. but they're not cheap.

on the plus side, i will be finally changing my suspension this week. coilovers should arrive and should be able to lower the car and ease the scrubbing issue, even if only only slightly.

then i can save for new tyres and a camber kit that can give me some good negative camber. so far i havnt heard much in fd camber kits besides skunk2 and megan racing

[fitme]

will a 225/50/16 fit on the stock VTiL rims?..planning to change the stock tires right away onced ive got the car...any warranty issues?...tire calc says only a 0.1% diff so its almost negligable

[ekdez]

why would u change the tires off the vti-L rims?
they come stock with bridgestones... lol

and yes the ITR rims will fit the fd. but it looks stupid. i already tried it =]
the s2k wheels look good tho. :thumbsup:
