Battles would be on my car if they were 1/2 inch wider. So gay at 9.5 its like a tease.

If they made 10.5 I would own 4 sets.

But alas. They are bandwagon wheels. Still look good though no matter how played out they are.

yeah, don't worry about it, dude. your car had all the makings of being rad. at that point with unpainted kit, it was more rad than many on this site will ever be. sad you sold it.

those rims are amazing. like works9 demo cars. what kind are they?

Thanks! The wheels are SSR Agle Minerva's. 18x10 all the way around.

Yeah I really liked that car but at the time I had other things to pay for and deal with...I actually just picked up a S14 Kouki and have a handful of S13's but this thread makes me want a Zenki again...lol.

FNs got so played out a few years back that everyone abandoned them. Now if you run them, your car looks original again.

I've owned both FNs and Battles in the past though. Good cheap wheels.

miggypq21 · 02-03-2010, 12:53 PM

Was test fitting the bumper, still waiting on spacers to go lower

irritatedmax · 02-03-2010, 04:25 PM

^18x10 17x9.5 stagger?

looks rough and tumble, down to rumble.

jorge1190 · 02-04-2010, 09:33 PM

Gotta get new pics once i get her back on the road but here is a halfway recent one to add to the Battle collection in here.

Maiku240sxS14 · 02-04-2010, 11:03 PM

Jumped on that bandwagon too...but seriously you could get (4) 18x9.5 for under $700?!! I had too...LoL

blackoutt · 02-04-2010, 11:40 PM

Ew, zenkis on battles.

Played out or not I agree Battle's just look so good on S14 Zenki's!

kalypso123 · 02-05-2010, 07:09 AM

they're the cheap wheel that everybody loves.

venom_5 · 02-05-2010, 09:16 AM

theyre over-rated ... but hey, if itll keep people from buying Rotas im all for it

icedsole · 02-05-2010, 09:26 AM

^ how are the over rated? thats a pretty damn good looking wheel for the money, is it not?

venom_5 · 02-05-2010, 09:52 AM

personally, i dont think they look THAT good ... they dont look bad at all, dont get me wrong, but i wouldnt put them on my Zenki

and to me, a wheel's worth is more than just looks - im the type of person that will argue that a Meister is worth more than a D2 to someone that doesnt get it ... its a whole package of quality manufacturing + function + form, etc

upsdude · 02-05-2010, 09:55 AM

if you like them, put 'em in in/on your car. you'll never be satisfied if you're building your car for approval for the forum members. "overrated", "played out" ? who cares? in the end it's still a 15+ year old car anyways

Funny, people used to say the same thing when defending their FNs.

And just to prove that I'm joking around and not trying to incite a riot, here's a pic of my zenki with battles (wheels are long gone).

irritatedmax · 02-05-2010, 02:59 PM

i continue to love this thread...

SuicidnS13 · 02-05-2010, 05:29 PM

Finally some updated pics of my car. This is not my final height, this is my push it around my garage and driveway and get my jack under it easily height. Few more weeks till she's running!
Still missing due to lack of time for install are my kouki sideskirts and LED tail lights. And obviously my exhaust, trying to keep a simple hot-rod look going on here. Maybe next year Ill go widebody and aero and then step up the tire sizes even more. And for those who dont know my specs are
18 x 9.5 -1(+14 w/o spacer) 245/40/18
18 x 10.5 +0 275/35/18

S14Serge · 02-05-2010, 07:55 PM

Wow sick a$$ zenki's, just straight killing it in here lol

And staying on topic....

Hey where did you get your roll-cage done and how much does a full cage like that cost for a s14.

I need it done on both my Lexus IS300 1000hp+ and S14 Drift car.

Please PM me if you can thanks =)

Puhahaha

How much chamber you running in the rear for these?

SuicidnS13 · 02-05-2010, 11:55 PM

Still on stock arms, havent had a chance to install new rucas and toe links.

irritatedmax · 02-06-2010, 12:34 PM

^That shizz is the bizz.

Really like the tire fitment. And how is it that VS-KF's always appear (no matter what size) to have massive lips?
