Diamond Racing Fitment

[dmax_silvia_s13]

Anyone who has diamond racing steelies on an s13 I need to know a good fitment for the rear with a pull or even what your running without a pull. And pics if you have them.
I posted in the steelie thread thats already started but noone answered so starting a thread for it.

[CrimsonRockett]

Honestly, you have to be specific as to what fitment you're aiming for.

Someone can post 15x10 -48. They'd consider that good fitment.

Someone can post 15x7 -0. They'd consider that good fitment.

Everybody has a different definition as to what fitment really is.

Stretched - Non-stretched.

Tucking - Not tucking

Etc.

[dmax_silvia_s13]

Well to me theres one fitment and one fitment only. Tucked and slammed.
But I just wanna see what some people with diamond racing wheels are running.
Doesn't have to be completely flush but I just need to get an idea of what to order for diamond racing wheels.

I have seen 15X10 -38 on an S-chassis. The guy is on here too. He is running ZG fender flares I believe.

plus

Wheel Offset Calculator (http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp)

plus wheel fitment whore thread=you figured it out yourself!

the brand of the wheel doesn't really matter since they are custom and they'll come in whatever offset you want...so long as they arent too high.

just make sure whatever calipers you use will clear.

[Camo]

Ive got some 15x8 -12s Make sure you talk to them before you just order an ol wheel. I have to run a slipon spacer up front to clear the brakes.

[wow-thats-a-cool-car]

come on dude I have seen like 9 million threads on steelies. They look kind of good but search before you post

[smelly240]

the cragar soft 8's are kinda cool in fitment.. they look poopsauce unless they're spares, track wheels or for drag radials, tho.

steelies are kinda ugly

Are the numbers in the middle supposed to be offset? Because I dont really get that chart. Like would a 10j+12 mean 6 inch backspace?

[atutt]

^looks like it would!

[JeremyR]

YES! thast exactly what it means. most steelies are measured in backspace, so use that chart to convert to mm

[dmax_silvia_s13]

Alright well I sure hope thats right. If i order a 6inch backspace on a 10j and get some ghey ass rim ill be pissedd. But thanks.

[PIN GIO 2]

i will order 16x10 Pro Series

help me which should i order offset +12 or +0 for rear?

[ayuaddict]

+12, but why?

[PIN GIO 2]

i am not sure if 16x10 fitment perfect to pull rear fender 50mm?

[PIN GIO 2]

forget add -15*

[PIN GIO 2]

forget add -15*

[PoorMans180SX]

Steelies and 50mm fender pulls? Really?

Steelies = spares only, and even then only when you're on 15" wheels. You know how much a 16x10 steelie weighs?

[PIN GIO 2]

i mean not fender pull

wide body rear fender 50mm

i dont care about weight

[4DOOR_LIFE]

Why go through so much work just for steelies? oh i get it, you wanna be hellaflushillestcanibeat with all the hondas rockin diamond racing wheels huh? the things people do to be hip with trends lately is ridiculous.

[Xbroke_kidX]

Yeah fuck weight and ugly ass wheels and stupid sizes and pointless widebody. Because my car is going to be flush!!!!!

Fucking Idiots.

[!Zar!]

OEM steelies look better than retarded sized ones.

FACT

[zooopreme]

I would have to disagree with broke kid, I really like this look, it's simple

Why would you even keep this thread open?

I don't think he was a mod back then.

[lflkajfj12123]

HAHA oh wow didn't see the post date.

[PIN GIO 2]

calm down guys, i just want to buy cheap rims and save money!

[PoorMans180SX]

There's these things called XXR wheels.

They look decent, AND they're cheap. They even have some semblance of original design.

(And they're lighter than a retarded steel wheel)

[PIN GIO 2]

i wanna 16x "10 10 10 10 10 10

[ayuaddict]

You dont want retarded steelies.

You dont want 16"s for that matter.

are you TRYING to make your car ugly?

[RB30S14]

Yeah fuck weight and ugly ass wheels and stupid sizes and pointless widebody. Because my car is going to be flush!!!!!

Fucking Idiots.

Once the poor caught wind of baler ass flush wheels on baller wide bodys they had to find a way to stretch their dollar out to try to get the same look on a budget.

So in comes throw away cheap ugly steelies just so they can claim they are low offset (even tho the wheel is shit) and some shit china knock off fender flare and or wide fender.

because we can't achieve gangsterness from cheaper parts? For all that say "cheap" doesn't look good, I'll post pictures of my car after my chinese 50mm fenders are installed. and my knockoff body kit.

because I drive my car at a track, and spending 1,500 on fiberglass everything seems reasonable every other month.

I should stop buying these cheap federals and just buy advans to burn up too.

get out of here with that bullshit.

if he likes the look of steelies....all for it. But if he is buying them cause they are "negative offset bro" then that is rediculous.

[kalypso123]

OP you're better off with replica mustangs

[Phlip]

Holy shit this thread is old!
