[MakotoS13]

i hate the stretched tires and camber and the fact that they stick out....

...the wheels are indeed sex, though. too bad they don't have enough fender and tire coverage :)

[sil40sx]

so how else do u expect to run those offsets under stock rolled fendres?

[MakotoS13]

whats the point if you have more rim than tire you're using? oh yeah, it "looks cool".

...yeah... okay....

[Dousan_PG]

its not fucking looks...unless your a poser and you should die anyways because you base all things on looks.
how many of you fags have to say that?
its nothing to do with looks

[nokeone]

whats the point if you have more rim than tire you're using? oh yeah, it "looks cool".

...yeah... okay....

you have no clue what you are talking about...

that's like saying a 13in (arbitrary) drag slick is just for looks on a Top Fuel car...

do have any idea why people run this type of set up?..or are you just talking out of your ass?..

and my personal opinion....it looks like SEX...which is just icing on the cake...

[RBS14]

SOOOOO HOT!!!

i want a pair for the back of my car!!! yummy!

[nokeone]

hey punk...long time no see...come to LA June 27th and run in the competition!!..yeah yeah...need more peeps reppin...:D

[revat619]

They're nice but i'd rather have the sunken face look for the front AND the rear. (i.e. 18x9.5 +12 all around....hehe). But anyways, the car and the wheels are still sexy!

[AceInHole]

Hmm.... makes me want to get some FN01R's for racing, although the rims I'm looking at now are 10.5 in the rear instead of 10. That, and the tires I'm using are slightly wider (275/40/17 front, 315/35/17 rear) :p.

Edit: N/m, 315/35's wont fit a 10 :(

[sil40sx]

that doesnt look like youre running much negative camber, what are you set at?

[Salty_X]

[Bliss]

oh my lord...those are not his wheels....lol

[sil40sx]

i figured that, but i thought the owner might be on here, i know, pretty dumb

[Strider]

Jesus tapdancing christ are those prices per wheel? Bwahahhahahaha

HAHAHAH! i've never heard that one before. Had me rolling!
Anyways, love the wheels. I would personally like them +12 all the way around think it would look so sexy like that. But to each his own.

[rcviper]

OMG that is so god damn sexy, looks sooooo hot with the sunken in look.

[MakotoS13]

okay, fine, what are the benefits of stretching a tire over getting the proper rim (ya know, one that would actually FIT under the car)? i mean, if you're only using 9" of tread on a 10" rim, get a 9" freakin rim dude... it is excessive and i see absolutely no performance benefit what so ever so i think it's retarded. the rim does indeed look really cool BUT if it doesnt fit the car (look good on the car) you're wasting your time.

please, someone enlighten me as to how this could possibly do anything more than add rotating mass, look gay, and force one to explain to the tire guy why the hell you want it done.

[Johny5]

jeeeeeeeeez are you kidding? have you considered the fact that there would be little to none sidewall flex or movement? it makes transition in and out of drifts very easy (for me at least) the car does not want to snap as bad in the rear. 9" wide tire on 9" wide wheel would flex unless the sidewall was very strong as i have heard the azenis sport's are.

well, it doesnt help perform in a GRIP/AUTO-X/ROAD Race obviously...
benefits in a drift event however greatly reduces sidewall flex, thus break loose easier....then there are some people who pose by stretching and dont do anything but street drive, which is fine by me if it looks hot and flush...

btw, for those who think stretched tires is unsafe for daily driving should be fucking shot in the forehead...TWICE....these people speak from NO EXPERIENCE

word, if their stretched and your tires aren't feathered or melting then shiiiiiiiiiiiit

didnt say they were cheap

[Salty_X]

didnt say they were cheap
I know you were just trying to help, and I appreciate it, but the price that shop charges for those wheels is too ridiculously overpriced to help anybody. Bee-R's retail prices for painted/powdercoated/whatever and chrome wheels are $268 and $358, respectively. They even have special pricing when you buy them in pairs that is still less than one wheel from that shop. I know a portion of that 80-100% markup pays for shipping, but those prices just don't sit right with me. Making money is one thing, raping people is quite another.

i know exactly what u mean. this is the only place that ive ever seen that sells them spankin new but a rediculous prices. i was likin them until the price then :bash:. but i think the DT-05R look the same and are probably close to if not the same quality

[justinhustle]

you can get te37 for the same price almost

[oojpeeoo]

dat car would look more agressive with a mattblack fn setup

[sil40sx]

does anyone have any idea what the sizes of those tires are? i ordered the same setup in bronze, and i have four 225/45 tires for the front and 235/45 for the rear, so i wanted an idea of what it is going to look like

[BLiTz]

Hey guys thanx for all the comments on my car. Sorry for the late reply but I have been away for a while. Steeles got it right when answering the question about the wheels specs. I do need to set the camber better but I just haven't had a chance. I paid $1000 for all four wheels + shipping from a private seller. If there are any other questions or comments please feel free to post. Oh and if you want more pics I have those to..... Thanx for all the comments again. Cameron
P.S. Also this isnt my screen name so if you want to get a hold of me my AIM account is humper300 and my zilvia account is speedfiend. Thanx

[sil40sx]

ok, what size tires do you have on there, front and rear?

[BLiTz]

I'm running Faulkin silent sports front and rear 325/45/17 and 345/40/17.

[drift into a curb]

225 and 245

[nokeone]

325/45/17 and 345/40/17.

:wtf: ..that is some serious rubber...

[iyceman]

Archangelprez's a faggot who likes to start shit about things he knows nothing about. Ignore him, maybe he'll just go away.

[xkimcheekidx]

^^^ok where did that come from

[nokeone]

someone posting in wrong thread?..lol

[iyceman]

No, I was just noticing that he started talking crap here about stuff he didn't know about too.

[Zemus]

HAHAH IYCEMAN Id love to see your project, I bet your not at devoted as he is, he is redoing the WHOLE CAR. He has put more work into his car in the month he has had it than alot of you guys have, just cuz he dosent understand or like streached tires, doesnt mean he should be able to state his oppinion. Me I love the look and the handeling of streached, but thats just me. So mr 20 posts, maybe you should watch when you talk about somthing YOU DONT KNOW

[nokeone]

No, I was just noticing that he started talking crap here about stuff he didn't know about too.

ahh..cool..i see what you are saying..i'm 50/50 with him..half the time i think he is talking out of his ass..the other half he does have a clue...

[MakotoS13]

iyceman- oh i have a very well founded understanding of the concept, why people do it, and what it's benefits are. the car needs wide fenders and wider tires, that's my opinion.... just chill out Mr. Iyceman (get it?)

zemus- once again you rock

nokeone- 50/50 is all one should ever expect.

[nokeone]

just chill out Mr. Iyceman (get it?)


LAME...buuut...i actually LOL'd...hahah... :o

[iyceman]

First, Zemus, I didn't question his dedication, only that he's started a lot of crap from what I can see about stuff he doesn't necessarily know about. I for one apologize slightly cause I was in a bad mood this weekend and didn't take shit with my normal grain of salt. Also my name isn't Mr. 20 posts, any more than yours is Mr. Unable to Spell Properly, no matter how apt the name might be. Second, Arch, you yourself made your comments asking what the performance benefits were, saying there were none. How about we call a truce, no more squabbling, and I'm sorry for getting angry about what I said. We're all here for the cars, so let's leave the insults for the Honda losers. :rawk:

[MakotoS13]

how incredibly unexpected. good show old chap. oh and i just see the performance gains as debatable. i'd rather have more contact patch and flex in sidewall than less tire and less flex.

then again, i'm not a jDm tYtE DriftoRino :)

[RBS14]

LAME...buuut...i actually LOL'd...hahah... :o


hahahahah "LOL'd" hahaha good shit.

[nokeone]

hahahahah "LOL'd" hahaha good shit.

hey bitch...when you gettin your ass down to So Cal..i miss ya!..

also this weekend..party time for graduation (ava's, katrina's, yours)..an appearance may be required of you..we're getting shit faced i decided..lol..

i'll call you when i'm in SC..

[iyceman]

I'm only an asshole when I'm tired, and like I said, I hadn't slept since Friday. :bigok:

PS
Zemus, enjoy!

Hahah yea, Im not a good speller, or good with puncuation (sp??) but it doesnt matter, the point got across

[rcviper]

I'm running Faulkin silent sports front and rear 325/45/17 and 345/40/17.

Whoa whoa whoa, back the truck up here....that is either a typo or you have the widest tires anyone has ever fit on a 240. 345 is INSANE, but what is even crazier is the fact that you have 325s on the front. :eek2:
