hehe =] ill search b4 i post next time, might get a set of buddy clubs
hey guys
how about another different setup?
i was thinking along the lines of 17x9" +44 fronts on 225/45/17 and 18x9.5" +38 rears on 245/35/18.
how do u think the ride feel would change from running 17's all round to 17 fronts and 18 rears? any disadvantages?
(im running 17x9" +44 on 235/45/17 all round atm)
and how about the sidewalls? is the 245/35/18's gona look too small/narrow compared to the 225/45/17's ?
would the stretch of 225/45/17 over 9" be enough to make it look even (or look even in wheel circumference) with the low profile of 245/35/18 over 9.5"?
last question ahaha. i've never dealt with 18" rims and 35 profiles...i've heard ppl say that 35profiles are really thin and that potholes could damage the rim (especially when the 35 profiles are stretched). would u recommend 255/35/18's instead or 245/35/18s be alright?
cheers guys !
*or do u think im being too creative and stupid now? lol*
What rims do you have atm :O
18's will feel abit more rough
yeap thinner tyres could mean damage to your rims depending on what you hit, not to say 17" wont be the same.
gunmetal work emotion cr kais =D
Nice like my old rims cept I only had 17x9+44 at the rears
I miss them :(
I am looking at cr kai rims too. did the 17x9 +44 fit without any mods and what specs were your running at the front? and what spec tyres did you end up using? Thanks.
17x9 +44 will need a fender roll on the rears!
i remember vyets ran 17x8 +47 in the front ? if i remember correctly, i dont think u need to do any mods to the fenders with that.
im running 17x9 +44 on all 4 corners, and the only problem i've had is running wide tyres on the front (235/45/17's lol) and that eventually bends ur stock fenders if u dont roll them (only cuz of the way u drive up driveways etc...). when the current ones run out of rubber, gona change to 225/45's fronts instead, and maybe some 255/40s on the rears! =D
hi guys, has anyone tried on Lenso DC5-v2, 18x8 (5x114.3) before? Would appreciate some comments on them? reckon it'll sit well?
would love a set of cr kai's but bit tight on budget atm ...
Ta
what's the offset on that wheel?
for some reason, you can only search them as Tenso's but sold in AU as Lenso ..
there's offset of 25, 37 and 45.

+37 offset on a 9 inch rim wuld b ideal
sits the best imo
im running 18x9 +38 on the rear and its perfect!
doesnt poke out like stupid but doesnt sit inside n look weak.
reckon I'll do 18*8 +45 front and 18*8 +37 rear. thoughts?
would i require fender roll? thx
