DT-05R Wheels Group Buy 17x9.5 +30 in 4 Lug and more - Page 3 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Salty_X · 11-14-2003, 03:47 PM

Thank you very much!

Those are pretty light too!

I have another question about the wheels. What's the name of the company that makes them? I don't really care but my dad is curious, he keeps bugging me about it.

I wasn't sure if DT-05R was the model or the company so I thought I'd ask. Thanks!

CPARKPowertrix · 11-14-2003, 03:58 PM

I'm in for two of 16 X 8.5s. These will work great for my Mickey Thompsons. Please let me know when you are closing the group buy so I can get in. Does this include shipping? If not, how much to San Diego CA 92126. Thanks.

the240sxer95 · 11-14-2003, 07:28 PM

i like wheels to have a sunken look to it, what size and offset would i need to make it look like that? (how koguchi's rims look on the green car)

anotherblusi · 11-15-2003, 09:41 AM

How much will these wheels cost after the group buy is over?

high offsets like +40, but why would you want that? theres assloads of +40 rims on e-bay.

??

Sunken look is acheieved by low offsets. Get the widest wheels with the lowest offsets for sunken look.

Salty_X · 11-15-2003, 02:57 PM

Both of you are right. The guy just wasn't specific enough...
If you want the whole wheel to be sunken in you'd go with narrower widths and higher offsets. If you want a sunken face and a huge ass lip, go with wide wheels and low offsets.

Neither of which really make sense to me since Koguchi's wheels don't really have an obvious lip (because of the spoke design) and they're definitely not sunken!

tougefactory · 11-15-2003, 03:50 PM

The company's name is M2.

1baddrifter · 11-15-2003, 06:23 PM

I need to know how do I place and order?
Thanx

redrps13 · 11-16-2003, 12:01 PM

i wonder what the hyper black ones look like......on the dto5r website the gunmetal ones almost look black........i cant decide what color to order........what do you guys think for a black car gunmetal or hyper black

whateverjames · 11-16-2003, 12:35 PM

I would definitely go with hyperblack but I just got gunmetal because for some reason they didn't have 16" hyperblack wheels. That's annoying. And of course, if I were in the market for 17" wheels, hyperblack would only come in 16". That's my luck

tougefactory · 11-17-2003, 10:18 AM

Hi everyone, many of you inquired about the deadline and it has been set for Friday of this week 11/21/03. Since we already have over 10 sets ordered, I feel that it's only fair for the people that have already ordered. The order will be processed and it'll take 1-2 weeks to ship out from Japan(some wheels will have to be made to order). It'll take approximately 5-7 weeks to get to your doorsteps after its been shipped from Japan.
Thank you.

usdms14 · 11-17-2003, 11:08 PM

what offset should i go with if im
gonna go 8.5 in front and 9.5 in the rear
on a s14 i want to clear my coilovers also
thanks for the help

Matt_240 · 11-18-2003, 12:07 AM

dammit, another guy in hawaii w/ these wheels. go 8.5 +25 and 9.5 + 30. you wont regret it.

Hello,

In regards to: "5-7 weeks to get to your doorsteps after its been shipped from Japan."

Are they going to ship the wheels that are already made as soon as you make the order or are they going to wait until the whole order is ready to ship to the US? If so, does this mean everyone will need to wait aproximately 5-7 weeks to get their rims?

If they are going to send the rims that they have already made, do you know which sizes and colors they currently have in stock? Thanks.

tougefactory · 11-19-2003, 09:53 AM

This groupbuy ends this week. M2 has most of the wheels in stock, but some has to be made to order, which shouldn't take more than a week or 2. Then all of the wheels will be shipped together to our warehouse(saves costs), and will be shipped out via ups ground insured(excludes Hawaii & Canada).
Thanks

Salty_X · 11-21-2003, 01:59 PM

Yay the buy's over!!

Now we just have to wait 6-9 weeks for the wheels to come..

I'm just curious how many people in the central valley or bay area got a set, DRFT I saw that you wanted to get a set, did you? If so what color did you get?

Matt_240 · 11-21-2003, 02:11 PM

yeah, did anyone else in hawaii get a set? i hope im the only one rocking these badboys.

Ranger_Man · 11-21-2003, 03:29 PM

im pretty sure im the only one from ohio. the good news for us is that we are all going to be 1 of 10-15 to have em in the states

.

starfireS14 · 11-22-2003, 04:03 PM

HiPSI · 11-24-2003, 08:44 AM

We got an e-mail, but I had to search through my junk folder on Hotmail to find it, for some reason.

Here's the e-mail in case you didn't get it:
Hi, everyone. Hope everyone enjoyed Thanksgiving!
The DT-05R has already been ordered on 11/24/03. I have just received the stock list from M2 Japan. 90% of the wheels that are on order are in stock. They will let me know when the rest of the wheels are going to be in stock and ready to be shipped.
Thank you
David

Salty_X · 12-15-2003, 04:47 PM

We got another update today, check your e-mail or check this since it's right in front of you..

Hello, Happy Holidays
Just a small update on the DT-05R wheels. We're waiting on some Hyperblack wheels still. Once the Hyperblack wheels come in about a week, the wheels will be shipped and everyone will get an ETA in their email.

Thanks
Touge Factory

Sorry guys, I ordered hyperblack wheels

whateverjames · 12-15-2003, 05:23 PM

adictd2b00st · 12-15-2003, 10:11 PM
