Another ?? about wheels! Great Deal!!

[emiliorescigno]

Buy them. If they fit and you like them, keep them on. If they don't fit or you don't like them, sell them for a profit!

Just an FYI for all the responses.. Here are 2 of them mounted with no rubbing... Sorry these are on my camera phone..

 

[SilverSupraT]

oh yeah! those are NICE! gawd I'd love to see how they looked with my coilovers

Did you turn your steering wheel both ways completely to see if there is any binding or touching of wheel to fender well? How much room is there on the back set from the suspension?

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

They don't look right to me.

They don't look right to me.

I disagree...I think they look great but I can't tell how they sit in relation to the fender. Can you take some higher res pics for us?

 

[JustAnotherVictim]

You can't tell me what to think. :icon_razz
It just looks off somehow.

I like the style of the wheel, but they look gigantic on the car and it just looks funny.

Yep I checked.. In the rear I had to push the tip of my finger between the wheel and strut.. Maybe 1/2 inch or less. No issues with hitting the fender on the rear unless I hit a huge hole and compress ed the suspension like 3-4 inches. The front was about the same. 1 finger tip beween the tire and the plastic in the wheel well. Maybe would rub the plastic if the car leaned enough..

I have ST springs with KYB's as well..
I also used the Tire calc and suprising enough that the overall wheel for the 19 is .06 smaller than the 245x50x16 on there now.

I like the style of wheel because they don't look heavy. Regardless of whether they are heavy or not, the large diameter and thin spokes gives the feeling of alot of free space and makes the wheels seem lighter. IMO.

I personally would take an 17/18 over the 19 any day of the week, but given the situation...I'd roll the baller 19's:naughty:

Also...did you ever state what the tire size was front and back?

EDIT: yes you did. Do the 275's look stretched on the 10 inch rim?

 

[starscream5000]

I'd still sell them bitches and get a brand new set of just about any decent rim you want .

They do look a little stretched.. Not as bad as some others I've seen.. But the edge of the rim is not flush with the side of the tire.. Curb it and it would be rough.. One of a couple of reasons I may back off from the purchase.. I always thought 18's would be the biggest I would go..

 

[starscream5000]

I still think there is a profit to be had by buying those a reselling them .

 

[twinturbozs]

I think 19's look great.

 

[Dachande]

Stock brakes look teen tiny with gigantic wheels..no thanks.

 

[87nasupra]

Matt, i wouldn't put them on your ride man. i know you will have problems with them for sure. get some nice 17's or even 18's is nice wit ha little sidewall.

For $500 buy them fast! And they will fit you car maybe just a slight fender roll depending on how low you want to go.
