Ordered the Racing Harts Gunmetal 18's $1,400 will pick them up next week..Can't wait!!!

 

Real nice...can't wait to see them on!

 

damn nice

...i guess ur not getting that paint job after all...

 

Those rims are hot. I always liked those. Good choice Green Banana.





:ibnipponsaysthosearemyrims:

 

uh oh, better not tell nippon but im glad that youre moving away from chrome. The ride should look hawt with those on

 

I hear ya I'm not really a chrome guy but I got sick of riding stock. Nippon knows he supports my decision on jackin his wheels

 

damn thats gonna look Hot Cl Platano, cant wait to see some pics. What size tires did you get?

 

I think the tires were 225/40/18

 

Nice choice

 

I went to the body shop yesterday and they told me 3500 for the job to clean up all my dents and everything too. I talked him down to 2000, I might sell him the old rims and get even a better price..I havent decided yet on the paint..

 

jk nice choice man!

 

Nice choice, i liked your car with the chromies, but i'm sure it'll look even hawter with nippon's I mean those wheels.

 

jajjaja...

 

Nice wheels man..cant wait to see the whip. Those rims are nice with any color(except pink a.k.a primrose), so when you do decide to paint you'll be good. I dont really like many styles of wheels but those are str8 . If you dont pick em up by the meet on Sunday we should do a photoshoot sometime next week. Good choice by goin w/ the wheels first...
The paint and H22 can always wait.

 

 

btw.. what sizes of rims did you get? 18x7? 42+ offset?

 

He is bringing me 18x7.5 and 18x8 to see how each would fit..It this Korean guy I always go to , he is very cool..

 

woohoo!!!! I want to get these too...

 

no wait nvm too many CL'ers getting them. I'd be jacking nippon AND you now..

-ALex

 

primrose isn't pink, its purple

...i think that those rims would look on primrose CL

 

yeah wtf? lol...damm i want to rims. I went to showstoppers in glendale and they have the "R1" brand that look just like those for $850 w/ tires. I might get those.

 

Nippon has them on his primose/purple CL in 19's

 

They look sick in my opinion. Primrose + gunmetal rims =

 

get em powder coated . i donno what'd look tuff on the green car though?

 

my bad

 

Those wheels are as hell.

((sorry, I wasn't really diggin' the style of your chromies...)).

Love the green car though.

 

Nice choice!
They're going to look sick on your CL...

 

Had Gunmetal on my green civic believe they will look tight..




i wouldnt pay $1400 for rims and then powdercoat it..

 

that would be :ghey:

 

18x8 is the way to go. I hope to order another set of wheels running 9 wide with rolled fenders.

 

Can we go that wide without running into problems? If so, sweetness....

 

I was gonna do it into my cl.. but had to order new rims for the setup... so i just gave up.. i might do it like 6~12 month later..

ah.. was gonna change the rear rims only.. like 19x9 or more wider..but ours is FWD..so.. u know..

 

it will rub.. u have to customize ur fenders.. and put some fender flares (widebody)

 

would 18x8's work with no problems other then fenders rolled?

 

Yep the ssr's im running now is 18x8 Im running a 215/40 on them no rubbing only when turning going up a hill. There is less rubbing than my 7.5 wide c5's with 225s

 

I am seriously considering running a staggered setup in the near future. 9 wide is possible with a lower offset and some fender at least rolling will be needed. I was thinking of running 8 wide in the front and 9 wide in the rear with a +30 offset.

 

Yup, I suggest running a strech on the tire for maxium clearance.

 

yep.. i have 19x8 all around... so what i wanted to do was.. just order new rear rims..w/ 9 or 9.5 w/ different offset.. so that i can put the fender flares on..

was gonna use these rims W/ wheel spacers.. so that i can ask my bodyshop to customize my fender flares.. but they suggest NOT to do it.. they suggested me to change the rims first.. so.. u think 30+ offset will be fine? my fender flares are like 1.5 in wide.. then what offset do u think it needs..? 30+?

 

I don't think I can have rubbing at all since I race the CL on the mountains uphill, lol. Cause I'm getting 17x7.5 in the near future and putting Azenis 225's on them. If I could go with wider rims with wider tires without rubbing, then that'd be even better for me. Traction is always nice to have when running

 

but what's the point of having wider rims in back for FWD?

well..i'm getting the wider rims tho.. lol

but not sure about the offset..
