I don't know how to post the pix here.. so..

well.. i got some info from you guys..and.. finally i'll order 'em tomorrow.. 18x8.5 Racing Hart Multi-pieces in gunmetal!!
235/35/18 tires.. (around $1400)

yay..!!!

but.. i'll order only two of 'em first.. cuz.. not enough $$$

and.. i'll order rest of 'em this summer.. or maybe more early..

because of the custom fender flares.. as u know, i need rims w/ tires to make sure if the tires touch the fenderwall or not..

my bodyshop guy said that if i have rims, he will make 'em fit perfectly.. so that they won't touch the fenderwall..

i'll post the pix around the end of next week..
i can't wait to see my car w/ NEW RIMS!! (even though there are only two rims..lol )

p.s:it might look funny w/ only two nice rims and two stock rims..hehe

 

8.5 ? are you sure about that? you might wanna try 8 w/235...i have 235 on my 8 and it barely meets the edge of the rim....
so if you hit a curb..you will scratch or possibly bend the rim

 

235/35/19 is what i have

 

omg... SLEEP MAN!! it's 4:40 a.m!! lol

well.. are u sure?? do you have aim or msn?? i wanna talk to you...hehe..

 

im at work....i cant sleep....and i have aim...not sure if i remember my pw though......sn is the same.. liloj0414..lemme see if itll let me log on or whatever

 

and its 640 over here

 

good god sleep guys...

 

i thought you cant put deep dish rims on fwd cars cause of the offset?

 

I just got home, itz 5am over here in cali....

 

well.. then. it's time to sleep.. =D
here also 5a.m.
i can't sleep!!!

 

yeap yeap, got me some vodka to help me out...should be out in like 45 min.

 

omg...liloj0414 showed me this and it makes me change my mind... lol

when he showed me the pix of his rims on wheelmax.com, i saw the others which was Katana VR6 in gunmetal..

and.. they are sooooooo similar to RH CR which i'll get..i mean.. i was gonna get... lol
check this out..

i was gonna get only two of RH CR 18" multi-pieces in gunmetal with tires for around $1400..

but the katana is only $1100 for 4 rims with tires... lol

i don't know if katana is also multi pieces... but it looks like it.

well.. what should i buy....

("u'll get what u pay for..." lol.... sure?)

 

Any here running 8.5" wide rims????

My first reaction is to say they're too wide.

 

yeah.. i think so.. liloj0414 told me too.. he suggested me to get 18x8... anyway... i'm really thinking of getting RH CR.. but.. few hours ago, i saw the katana vr6...and.. it makes me cunfused..lol

what should i get.. hehe

 

I am into the reputation and quality associated with Racing Hart, but the price on those Katana's is REAL low.....
It depends what your going for.....Katana's wont help at shows, whereas the Racing Hart's will score more points, and spark more interest......Just my way of looking at it

 

First off, like I said eariler, I dont even think you can put on some deep dish wheels on our cars. The katanas are smiliar in design, but have the little pegs that go around the rim, also the lip is only maybe 2" max. The racing harts are a much better quality

 

nice rims. looks mean

 

I feel as if running 8.5" rims are possible but not without the use of spacers. Your bodyshop mite also need to cut the stock fender for clearance. The rubbing of the wishbone is what i'd be worried about. Anyway, get the rims if they rub, your gonna just have to buy spacers. Good luck man

 

imo, dont go cheap. if u wanna go with the katana... go 19s... racingharts, go 18s. i almost bought tenzos at one point, but then decided to get a good brand; 5zigen. i wont regret it.

 

yep get the real deal kinda shit.

 

I'd seriously looking at getting 19x8.5 If your going wide body.

 

for real

 

I want 19"s already my 18"s look so small.

 

i wanna get 17s but im too poor.

 

8.5s are gunna be a tight squeze be prepared to notch the fender cause theres no way ur gunna turn with those on

 

8.5 won't fit unless you're going to do a wide body or fender flares.

 

thats why i got 19s to begin with.....i knew that the same thing would happen to me

 

Ah it mite look better once i get my kit on. If i had 35 series tires it be better but i got 40's.

 

yea....the 40s look big on 18s for some reason....makes the rims look smaller

 

but on 18s...i prolly wouldve gotten 40s also just for the smoother ride than 35s......not a big diffrence..but its some

 

Plus, the rims i got have a thick lip on them so the spoke area is smaller.

 

yeah.. that's the one that i'll do on my car.. and.. that's why i'm getting 8.5... or i might buy 18x8.. but still... 18x8 and 235/35/18 will fit?

 

Dude, stick with the 18x8.5.

 

well..if i get 19"s, these should fit? 19x8 235/35/19??
18 and 19 is around $100 diferences.. so.. i might buy 'em..hehe

 

yea....i have 19x8...and 235/35/19

 

19x8or8.5"s for sure.

 

the racinghart cx. i sell those. sorry to bust your bubble. but multipiece only comes in 19". and for 1400? yeah your gonna get the single piece evos. for multipiece 19"'s your gonna pay close to 3 grand.

 

well... I'll get 19x8.5 235/35/19 tomorrow..
then.. two of them will be around $1300 shipped w/o tires..
and.. tires will be around 500?? well.. not sure..
of course i know the price will be 3g..

 

IMO, get the RH's, and get em all at the same time, not 2 now and 2 later. Plus, u dont want people saying u have a "knock-off" wheel, that sucks.

 

i guess u didn't read why i'll buy only two..
there's reason why i'll buy only two this time..
and i DID say i'll get RH CR.. okay?
