wheels, 15x8 with a -27 offset

[bo2o]

just to let you know with 15 inch wheels you need your car to be low!
and it will b ultra low.
you will not clear speed bumps ever again.
you cant play off 15 inch wheels with a kit.

first are these wheels reallie worth it? it better be hella cheap.
those wheels sound like there for a 280z or 86 corolla.

Some old school hammers. Sick wheels. I used to love seeing those on Bonneville SSEi's.

They look great on your 240. I've tried finding some locally, but they are usually not the right bolt pattern or are the weak size ones.

axis...rota...the list goes on. knockoff companies are jumping all over this -offest/huge lip trend.

hell even the op is talking about some axis rims that have been posted here several times in the past few days...the four spoke ones...

its not discontinue you can still buy them.

[thestreetzking]

i called three people and they said 4x4.5 15x8-30 were discontinued..

and axis uses 4x100 and rota doesnt have anything with good offsets, and sport max has the 002s which are +0.. closest thing but then again there knockoff..

I googled that really quick to see and a lot of people are questioning strength issues? you think redrilling to 5x114.3 would work or would you be concerned

2. Make the car fit them.

i dunno, i would do it personally, considering i know of cars who did it 3-7+ years ago and they're still fine after daily diving (and 1 truck who offroads ALOT) there are some members here that have done it too. maybe one of them will chime in.

its kind of like how people start yelling about how widening steel wheels by cutting+welding is sooo super unsafe. i never had a problem with it on the mr2... and i would like to do it again for my current car(S) but i cant find anyone around here to do it

[thestreetzking]

I know redrilling rotors is done a lot and i wouldnt be to concerned with that but the hubs just kinda sound like they will be weakend cause they arent to big, i might hit up a junkyard for some cheap hubs and give it a try

ive seen "universal" disk brakes that were drilled for 4x114.3 and 4x100 as well i dunno if that pertains to anything, but i thought i'd throw it out there...

go to town on some junkyard hubs that are still useable and let us know how it goes. if it goes to shit, just throw your regular hubs back on and get these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/WHEEL...spagenameZWDVW and switch the studs to the proper holes (might need some body work with an effective -52 offset)

[thestreetzking]

BINGO, found it in the diy thread. awesome.. gonna do this soon

[princequeeley]

Personally I would love 15s on my two tone it's just hard to find legit wheels in that size and with very nice width
