got my centers back today. gonna take a bit of work to get them back in and i need new bolts, i just reused some old ones to put one wheel back together for a picture. gonna need to trim back some of the aluminum around the mounts (and yes, i tried the wheel in the freezer thing, it helped, but didnt do a ton).

wheels are back together! nuts and bolts are temporary... got brand new ones on the way. theyll be here this coming friday along with new valve stems. now i just need to pick up some tires and get my fenders rolled! i was thinking about running 215/60/r15s in the rear to get some more meat back there (ive got a helical LSD on the way as well). fronts are for sure getting 205/60/r15s

my wheels are listed as 7.5J, but from outer lip edge to outer lip edge is actually 8.5 inches. im not really looking to run stretched fitment, just a nice squared up sidewall would be great. would a 215/60 do that? or would it bulge like a 205/60 does on a 6 inch wheel?

i officially hate rebuilding SSR mesh wheels...i NEVER want to do it again! getting the discs back in is a goddamn nightmare! had to leave them in the freezer over night, sand off a ton of metal on the mounting points, and break out a huge rubber coated mallet to get the stupid things back in place... built up and tore off a giant blister on my index finger from how hard i had to pound the stupid faces back in!!!

Wheels are measured to where tires seat which is usually 0.5" inside of the outer edge of the lip on each side. Thus, a 7.5" wheel will physically measure 8.5" all the way across.

And again, for the love of god, 50 series.

60 series is way too tall, especially for the purposes of this thread.

that looks more like a 55, not a 60.

Short sidewall is where it's at.

***dorkidori_s13*** · 03-23-2014, 07:07 PM

short sidewalls on a 15 look a little silly in the fenderwell area...looks like a midget tire. its easier to rock smaller sidewalls on 16s or up.

i might try a 55 if the 60 doesnt look right.

though i think that black coupe is about an inch lower than mine which makes up for the taller sidewall. fools the eye a bit. unfortunately that guy never posted tire specs in his threads

jaysgottaredtop · 03-24-2014, 08:34 AM

Meh, 55 max. 60s are just too big. 205/60 will look especially bubbled on a x7.5”. Plus a shorter sidewall will give you more clearance when going low and better effective gearing at the rear end for quicker acceleration.

In other news, this thing still rules.

hi res here

ShakotanGazelle · 03-24-2014, 10:02 AM

55s look okay I guess, 50s are the best.
Black S12 up there is on 15x6.5s with 195/55s, rears are 15x9 on 195/50s.

leave the 60s for the corolla bros on 14s.

gallo · 03-24-2014, 10:04 PM

16 in speed star wheels back in like 2008
