ANyone rock em? I think they are 16x8 with a 15 offset??

I think they would look good with teh spokes painted black..

s14falcon · 03-28-2004, 02:44 PM

Those are pretty cool. I think they'd look pretty nice with just the interior part painted that is set in. Black, or maybe even the color of the car if it is a cool color.

Zemus · 03-28-2004, 02:50 PM

Yea, you would be better off going with the 16x9s, their like a 10 offset, yumm To bad their SUPER soft wheels, If you run smaller than a 50 sidewall, they will bend on small bumps

a2ddryft · 03-28-2004, 02:52 PM

i personally think those are pretty damn hardcore... i like them.. black with a polished lip would look hot. sort of remind me of the 4 spoke supra wheels from way back when

Ricer240sx · 03-28-2004, 06:01 PM

i was thinking of getting some but i dint no if they will clear Z brakes

anyone gtot any ideas if they will or not??? i got the 28mm calipers

s0ldats · 03-28-2004, 06:08 PM

look at them i doubt they'll clear.

Ghettokracker71 · 03-28-2004, 06:13 PM

funny....yesterday I was checking out a starion with those rims and thinking how awsome they are!!! I'd have to paint the interior part of the spokes black,too.

boro240 · 03-28-2004, 06:53 PM

do a search. there was a thread on this, and a website posted that sells them (refurbished and very cheap).

Umm I wonder if I went with 16x7 in teh front and used a spacer on it to clear Z brakes... Oh yah Im Hypertek on my friends sn right now.. lol

HyperTek · 03-29-2004, 10:35 AM

Hey would rims from a Firebird or Crown Vic fit? Since Mustang wheels fit, just thought those other cars might be simular bolt pattern.

KiDyNomiTe · 03-29-2004, 10:44 AM

I think pontiac uses 5x120 or something like that. Not sure about Crown Vics.

Starion wheels atre nice. I have the Supra wheels, and might bore them out to make them fit, or just sell them to a hachi guy.

nismo2491 · 03-29-2004, 12:56 PM

sorry to get semi-off topic but, speaking of mustangs, do 87-93 4 lug mustang wheels fit?

Does that URL usually work? It doesn't work right now and I'd like to check them out.

LOL, some of those Vic wheels are pretty swank. I think I looked into it a little and they were either an funky offset or they weighed a ton. Another OE wheel that I think would look good is the Chevy Extreme (p'up) but they're the wrong pattern. I also saw some wrangler wheels that I liked. The offset and pattern were good but they were 15s.

Those starion wheels are the right lug pattern?

S13FREEAAK · 03-29-2004, 02:59 PM

Yep, the starion wheels are the right bolt pattern. I know of someone with an s14 with the 16x9 starion wheels in the rear and Crown vic meshies up front.

Carisma•FR · 03-29-2004, 03:56 PM

I have them. The 16x7 sit flush with stock S13 fenders in the front, but requires 25mm spacers to clear 30mm Zbrakes. The 16x8 stick out ALOT passed the quarter panels, definately need wide fenders to fit them.
And yeah I think the black spokes/ polished lip look really good.

Maeda · 03-29-2004, 04:03 PM

they are indeed sweet, however they are WAY too expensive to bother with.

BuudWeizErr · 03-29-2004, 08:14 PM

Man, seeing those pics kills the idea totally. Too bad the offsets are really crappy.

HyperTek · 03-29-2004, 09:36 PM

I see starions all the time in the junk yard, so i wouldnt mind grabbing some of them.. if I did go with the 16x8, id probably have to slap my fender flares back on.

mike13 · 03-29-2004, 10:19 PM

the wheels in the air isnt a good representation of how they would look/ fit with the car on the ground. Negative camber is your friend.
