I'm sure nobody else is running those wheels. You are the first!

psychedelicbeats · 09-03-2004, 06:56 PM

not exactly what you are looking for, but here this is 17x9+15 rear, 225/45/17. i would go for 235. be sure to fix ur toe after putting on wheels

i have a different bumper, so it will look different if u have stock rear.

Bwhahahahhaa

These wheels are so common that you would almost think they came stock on cars.

psychedelicbeats · 09-03-2004, 07:07 PM

those fn's (i dont have em) are common on the boards, but do you really really really see them on the streets? nah. meets? on the track? of course cause it's worth putting on the track and all. but just driving around, i don't see anyone with them, and i'm in socal too.

SR240DET · 09-03-2004, 07:55 PM

lol i dont think i was too clear.... but psychedelicbeats gave me an answer i was looking for.... i was woundering about the size... i just let you all know what rims i was getting hoping somebody else out there had them so i can see how good of a fitment it had.... but yeah... i just wanted to see if all you s14 guys had the same size fno1rcs.. psychedelicbeats are you using stock suspension parts for the new alignment? how much camber is that your rinning? i just might get my fenders pulled.. thats alot of rear camber... or... seems like it is..

i got these for track use... there soo cheap!.. and in so many different sizes... i dont know why "some" of you guys are making fun of them....

psychedelicbeats · 09-03-2004, 08:28 PM

no, that's not stock suspension.
what's allignment? ... yeah, that's a lot of camber.

Brian · 09-04-2004, 01:11 AM

i have a full set of them.

i can't wait to get rid of them.

i use them for my rear wheels and i also use a 5mm spacer with them.
so they are like +10 offset.
they fit well, but i wish they would be a bit wider.

Steeles · 09-04-2004, 09:14 AM

yeswepromise send them to the east coast theyre less common over here and I need wider wheels

You had negative camber before, but I'd bet the squishy 195/60-15 tires and stock wheels hid the "look" of it.

Now that you have 17X8 with a better offset (many Cobra/Mustang wheels are +24, BTW), it's more noticeable.
