Their gonna go on the CL as soon as the snow melts Cant wait.

The rest are on their way, i'm putting 225-40-18 Falken Azenis ST115 tires on them.

M.H.T Driv Mach-5 In Chrome

Their 18x7 with a 42 offset, and GUESS WHAT! Their only 26-27 fucking pounds!! I thought they were gonna be like 30 pounds !













They look so fucking huge, and its only 18..they look a lot more like 19's...

Cant wait...BTW, I know most of the members here are not gonna appreciate my taste in wheels, thats ok.

 

Pity pos----

j/k!!!!!

Nice rims!!

 

I like em, but weren't they kinda expensive? Make sure the shop that installs them balances them well, I heard they are a pain in the ass to properly balance. put those suckers on asap and post pics..

 

Nice wheels dude.. Congrats..

Where did you order them from?

 

700 canadian a rim.

best online price i have seen is 430 a rim u.s..


I got it from the owner of Wheel and Tirezeone on Lawrence.

Since hes the owner, he gave me maad discount on them.

I was kinda shocked he was selling for so cheap too...

 

Those will look like 19s because, much like the stock CL-S rims, the spokes go right to the edge, creating that 19" look.

Very cool, but I will reserve final "level of pimpin'" judgement until I see them on the car.

 

I likes!! I have chromed stock rims and they'll look GREAT!!!! Somewhat similar. Can't wait for that snow to melt.

 

nice rims Amir!

 

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!!!!!!! and

 

Being only 7" wide for 18" wheels you will have a lot problems with tires.. You neeed at least 7.5" to fit 235/40/18 ...

Good luck...

 

Sweet rims! My friend has those same rims on his C320!

 

:kill:

 

I like them. Its sorta like the rims on Acuras SEMA RSX.

 

Is that weight in kilos?

 

i'm putting 225 tires/40


no their not in kilo, in fact, on the box it says the weight is only 25 pounds, so might even be 1 pound lighter than stock!!!

 

nice wheels amir!! so when is the snow season over?

~i will have a turkeydog in your honor~

 

AHHHHHHHHHHH.......very nice. Another person with RIMS+SHITTY TIME OF YEAR=WAITING

 

Congrats on the new wheels.

The way this winter is going they'll be on in no time. Enjoy!

 

I like them. I am shopping 18” wheels myself.
They look HEAVY, but you say not.
What does a STOCK Wheel weigh anyway ???

Why did you go with 225 wide, I thought 235 would be a better match for the overall diameter?

My Calculations:

215/50/17 = 25.464” OD (stock)
225/40/18 = 25.086” OD
235/40/18 = 25.401” OD

Someone with grease under their nails check my math please.

I was looking at getting those rims and the shop told me that they are 30 pounds a piece as compared to stock 24 pounds....

on....

Congrats on the wheel purchase, Amir! Can't wait to see them on your ride at the next meet.

 

awww, their soo tiny and cute!



hahah, j/k j/k... their hot. i love those wheels...

 

Well I decided to go with 225 for a couple reasons:

- I wanted to not rub, or not have any possiblility of rubbing since I fill the car up a lot with people, and I am lowering about 1.5 inches all around with fron Comptechs, and rear H&R OE's.


- The rims are 1 pound more heavy than stock, I know that is gonna be hardly noticable, though since I am shrinking the overall diameter it should make up for that 1 pound extra per rim, and even make me go a bit faster than stock too...

- The speedo being off is minimal, i can handle it.

-With 235 my MPG is gonna suffer!


BTW, I think my new rims are only 25 pounds, my scale is kind of off. On the box it says 25 pounds, for shipping. I think the main reason is that they are only 7" and since most chrome 19's are 30 pounds, plus they are 8" wide..this makes total sense that they should be this light.
