steelies?

[mxsx25]

i havnt been able to find these style wheels anywhere.. lol i want massive steelies... any hints on where to find em? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v117/ridepinktrucks/IMG_1984.jpg

[silviaguy240]

diamond racing/summit/jegs....

[mxsx25]

uberrr, thanks haha

[mxsx25]

actually no luck i still can't find ones that are massive like this lol the biggest ive found is like 17x8... maybe im retarded haha

[gregfarz78]

why do you want any bigger than 17s? are they for a jeep/truck?

[H4X S13]

afaik, no companies make custom/wide steelies bigger than 17".

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Diamond Racing doesn't make anything bigger than 17x8 unless you go custom; which they do do custom orders.

[mxsx25]

lol no ive just seen these steelies on a couple s13's and thought they looked sick.. and what it comes down to is who makes those wheels i pictured above?

[ILoveMyRHS13]

The rims you posted are Diamond Racing. You can go onto their website and get a free brochure! :naughtyd:

[racepar1]

Why would you want steelies that big? The 17x8's weigh a friggin shit ton! Besides for the price you could get yourself a nice used set of wheels.

[ILoveMyRHS13]

Actually, Diamond only charges about $89-$119 per rim... Even if they are heavy; they are made for sprint cars, hahah. They look good, though. 15/16 stagger.

[s13 @ fullboost]

get some barts racing wheels

[lazysk8er2]

sorry im not following. are you asking about width? because you can get steelies widened to whatever size you want for a price. dont wanna thread jack but anyone out there should start a thread just about steelies next to wheel fitment whore

[txrxs]

summitracing.com and look for cragars. They make them in pretty much any size you want. I wouldn't suggest them on a already slow car as they weigh 23lbs for the 15x7(yes I put them on the scale).

I love these wheels!
http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b252/19TWO/DriftBattleevents/tr2.jpg

[Zero-Offset]

i believe its the amount of stretch on the tire thats throwing you off on how big they are.
if i remember correctly the ones pictured have like a 195 or a 205 mounted on them.

man that look hoot!

look at his pull, and try again.



goddamnit canada, you continue to disappoint me

[mxsx25]

lol thanks guys... honestly i just think they looked cool and if the price was right then i could have another set of wheels that i wouldnt be worried about messing up lol and yeah im not all that knowledgable on wheels and tires so the stretch is deffinately what threw me off..

[txrxs]

I already posted up where you can get them. And you can get in 17x9 -5ish offset. I consider that pretty massive for steelies. They also cost like $60 per.

[mxsx25]

k thanks for the help guys...case closed lol

[dorininja]

If you want custom ones that are wide as hell expect to custom order them from Diamond. I have 16x10 -19 all around that I bought used. They are not as heavy as people make them out to be and are rugged as hell. The people that hate on them just are jealous they don't have sweet circle track wheels! HAHA. Don't hate on ride height people coilovers are en route. Wheels are also being repainted to the original gloss black. Fuck the Cragers as they look like dog shit in comparison. Mine were $155 a piece new, which for the width, offset and the plus of saving money by not going 5 lug were well worth it. FUCK THE HATERS!

[murda-c]

They're cheap, but they're heavy and oogly.

it's like rotas that don't break as much and on lower offsets, but are uglier and heavier.

gayyyyyy :keke:

save up and get some decent wheels....

[[email protected]]

Steelies have to be complimenting the car, they aren't a NICE wheel. They are an old-school/rat rod kind of feel. Basically what i wanted my car to end up looking like. I like my diamonds.

Those are mine in the original picture. 15x10 with a 205/50/r15

www.diamondracingwheels.com : Custom Steel Wheels (http://www.diamondracingwheels.com/drwcustom.html)

Looks like they build bigger than 17's. To whom ever said they don't lol.

And yeah, I had to type that whole quote out. That sucked.

[ThatGuy]

I want to see someone put some of those 16x18 steelies on their 240. :keke:

Or even a set of 18x28!

[dorininja]

Dori ninja. Wtf is your car so high with that much of a stretch?

Well I guess it is that high because there are no coilovers on the car! If you read and comprehend my post you can see that I say coilovers are on the way. So take your bottle of haterade and dump it on yourself please. When it has coilovers it will be in slamtown.
Again FUCK THE HATERS hmm.... lets buy $2000 dollar wheels instead of say building a motor for boost.

To the owner of the white hatch what offset is that?

[atutt]

lol, where the hell would you find a rire to fit?
Stretch a transport trucks tire? lol

I'm ordering a set of 18x10 and 18x12's... I love the steelie look.


To the owner of the white hatch what offset is that?


They go by back spacing and not offset. Yes they are different. The way it's measure is different.

Backspacing = space from inside portion of the rim lip to the backside of the mounting surface. In inches.

offset = space from the wheel centre line that the mounting portion is located. In mm.

[ThatGuy]

lol, where the hell would you find a rire to fit?
Stretch a transport trucks tire? lol

You're acting like people care about putting tires that FIT under 240s. :rofl:

Some dumbass would find a way to put 2 195 tires on that 18" wide wheel.
"Stretch duallie bitches!!" :2f2f:

[SexPanda]

my brother has an 18 inch spair tire in his trunk. its like 18x5

does that count?

I am aware. I was told my diamonds are -19mm. 16x10j. I bought them used. Just measured them and looks to be about 5 and 1/8 inches of backspacing on a 10inch wheel. I used this online calculator http://www.1000rims.com/rt_specs.jsp and it tells me that they are -13mm. Hmmm.

[wow-thats-a-cool-car]

4 wheel parts peformance centres has them cheap

[sillyvia13]

steelies... I got 2 full cars worth....
weld 2 together and run 15 x 16 and toss on a 275 strecth it and call it a day!
lol...
2 pages of steel wheel heaven...
the ydo look good on rat rods 240's tho!

[240sxvaj]

[zugoi]

Make them. Use your stock steelies, Cut in half, weld a tube between.

Well aren't you doing things bass ackwarrds. Fitting Wheels before you even need to? How the fuck do you even know how much to pull? I mean it already looks like someone got a little too gung ho with the roll and decided to pull also. So now your call will continue to look like ass... but that's ok. The thing is, you spent money on that abortion of a steelie when you should have painted your body parts.

Or better yet, buy coilovers and space out the stock wheels. ANYTHING other than what you did would've most likely been better than the path you choose.

What I find even funnier is that you try and hate on me or a matter of fact ANYONE who decides to have taste and buy real wheels.

I know for a fact that if you can't afford to paint your car, buy real tires, fix that body damage, buy coilovers, I know for a FACT that you aren't going to build a motor worth anything.

So I will continue to drink my bottle of haterade filled with only the finest wine and doing lines of coke.

You on the other hand are just hopeless.

Might I suggest you go to finishing school and learn style and class?

[s13 @ fullboost]

oh and dori, mel served you.

[FaLKoN240]

Being on a budget and acting like its cool /= cool.

Just be subtle about it.

Telling people they're dumb for spending money on nicer stuff is a hater move.

Because you can't afford it doesn't make you a shit head, hating on them for spending money is what makes you a fucking hater.

I agree 100%.

However, if steelies are the look your going for with your car, then perfect. I'm not on a tight budget, I had my choice in wheels... but my personal taste is what I have on my car currently. My silvia will have the typical 18's... but I think my 180 suits the wheels.

to each his own.

Wow! I just got owned on the internet in a car forum! I am going to end my life now since I have no class and style. It's my fucking car, but please tell me how to go about it and I will listen. Good lord, I was not hating on people for buying expensive wheels. It all comes in time. You are the hater who makes a post in a thread about these wheels hating on them. As far as ride height goes this thread is not called "my slammed 240". I simply posted the pics for the guy asking about them. The aero is painted now, that is an older pic. I am building a car to track not roll out to HIN in. You sir are the hopeless one roaming the internet telling people how to build their cars. Go out and drive. Good lord and I wonder why I never bother to post.

I could go on and rant all the while proving you wrong word for word.

And oh how you wish all I do is stay online.

Sadly, it isn't true.

You obviously don't know what time it is because the ONLY reason you stretch tires is for fitting wheels because you're slammed. Yet you clearly say your goal isn't to have a slammed car? That Sir is a contradiction.

You wheels are stretched for no reason.

That right there is proof enough that you have no idea what you're doing.

Cry me a river about why you choose not to post. You're doing ME a favor by doing that.

But anyways, have fun building your, "track" car.

[s13 @ fullboost]

God that was good hahaha I am yet to see someone challenge you and not loose.

i like how they look, like on that white hatch shit looks good.

Shit Playa's and Hate'rs. I might as well whore out my steelies for the hell of it.
http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s242/castro_castro/drifttiremontage.jpg
These cam on my S13 when i bought it. there fairly common, you should check if yours came with them too.

The custom paint was actually sprayed in my Garage. Its a mix of Krylon aresol and rustolium spray paint.

I didn't cleam the rims first and it gave it a great textured look as well.

The paint also covers the rubber as well as the rim.

You sir are an idiot. Reading comprehension owns you. You must never be online, you only have 7000+ posts, after all those you would think you could learn to read posts and decipher there subject. I never once said i was not slamming my car. In the first post, which you failed to read, I clearly stated coils were on the way and when they arrived it was going to the ground. So this sweet contradicting you just did was really you not reading posts correctly. How do you stretch wheels? Just wondering because you say mine are. Damn my shit is sick! HAHA.

Last post as to not clutter up this poor mans thread about the horrible abortion of a steelie called Diamond Racing wheels.

[s13 @ fullboost]

ohh shit haha

[redclaw05]

i actually like these wheels i was debating on getting a set just for drift spares and not give a fuck if i dent/ curb them because they are steel, you can just bend them back.

but right now im looking for 5 lug starion wheels.

I said stretched tires at first. After that I accidently said wheels. My bad bro!

Your car looks a lot like on that wants to be hella slammed and stretched.
Where did you say that? When you said you didn't want a hin car.
You can keep trying to attack me. But the only person you should be bitter at is yourself.

[s13 @ fullboost]

but right now im looking for 5 lug starion wheels.

P.M. me I might be able to help you

[dmax_silvia_s13]

Anybody that has diamond racing wheels wanna let me know what a good sizing is for the rear of a s13 with a pulled fender. and wanna let me know it in the way they measure it with the backspace instead of offset.
Going to be ordering some for some spares for the rear and wanna know what would fit pretty flush.

[Flicktitty]

i think come spring i might get some for my girls daily hatch.

What offset? Or backspace (since Diamond goes by backspacing)?

[s13dan]

In summit and jegs i have never seen 4 lugs listed for sale. But im sure if you call you can get what ever you want special order for cheap. Same lug pattern as fox bodies so im sure its easy to get. When i bought cragers for my jeep they were 39$ a wheel for 15x10's... I think they look pretty good on the right 240.

[RickyC]

what do you guys reckon to steelies on an s14a? I've got no kit but will be rolling the arches. I'm looking at 16inch dia and no less than 8inch width.

[ZX88]

uh 120 a wheel for s 17" steelies. hmmm no thanks for that price you could get some mb wheels etc/
