[prophet_19]

if you dont want 19in why dont you buy 17 but a better quality rim?

[s13Dr1ft]

im not a big fan of anything over 18" in the back and 17" in the front...I just dont see anything thats practicul in huge wheels on a 240sx. 19's belong on a Ferrari, no a 240. but thats just my opinion

Roll the fender and get some decent spacers...I dunno.

[MakotoS13]

they're just right if you're goin for that "i like rainbows and vaseline" look.

[meatish]

They are not too big just too LAME. 19's are for people with over 400hp or people who park their cars on fluffy carpets at car shows. LAME.

[nigel1]

so no one thinks the pic is sexy eh... just curious... :bigok:

[xVaporx]

sure, the pic is sexy, but neither car is wearing 19 inch wheels, those are both 18s with proper offsets for RWD

[Zemus]

Pic looks hot, dont think their 19s

[fliprayzin240sx]

One of the guys from drift unit is running a set of 19 Work VS-XX. they look tight but like everybody says, not really fuctional. Just too big and heavy to be pushed. Me personally, 18s would be the biggest id go with a S14, 17s for S13s.

[justinhustle]

one of those is henrys car i forgot the other dudes name

henry has 18x10.5 +5 in the rear, not 19

The other car belongs to Irwin.

[KoukiMonster]

what the fuck, at least contribute to the thread. you make the most idiotic comments.

i digress...

yea 19's are much to big. you will be spending a pretty penny on tires and the 19 inch rims will be expensive and thats even for relatively shitty quality with shitty offsets.

17 is fine with no kit.

18 with kit.

'aero' kit. its just like how some s13's look ridiculous with 17 inch wheels until they get the kit.

[s14falcon]

Like its been said earlier, neither of those cars in the picture have 19s. If you want to be blingin and hot, much like the picture, get some 18s with a proper width and offset and shazaam, hotness.

[nistech]

they say 27s dont fit but they liars

[mr_240sx]

i have 17`s on my s13 and i used to love them before i got the c-west kit but now i find they are too small! i`m planning on getting 18`s because i beleive that 17`s are for stock body and 18`s for bodykits (like previously said)

[rps13sh]

i think 19's are perfect for S14.

[mav1178]

I think Jay thinks 19's are perfect for S14s.

They're 19x10.5 VSKF's you mean... and who says they're not functional... I run touge and drift with my 19's in the rear... it's all driver not the equipment... check out the fitment with 19's all around... and no these aren't the VSKF's... they're some other Works in 19... name that wheel
http://www.onetongarage.com/jays14/eurolinesh1.jpg

19's are just fine by me... 20's is where it would suck!!!

[SimpleS14]

^-- that is a sexy car

[Grip Gambler]

word 19's are hawt!!!
my ideal combo would be 18's up front 19's out back

[KoukiMonster]

yea same, if i was getting an s14.

otherwise 17 front 18 back for an s13.

but there is a reason why you get 17/18.

it may not be suitable for other people.

[S14DB]

I don't like the way vertically spaced rims handle. I would stick with one size.

[mav1178]

name that wheel

Work Euroline S2H.

Sorry, I cheated.

-alex

[justinhustle]

haha, i was late on my reply

my next set of wheels are

19x9/20x10

:)

[KA24DESOneThree]

they're just right if you're goin for that "i like rainbows and vaseline" look.

Heh... I dislike anything larger than 18" for a performance application. 18" with proper offset and slammage look good enough, no reason for 19".

Of course, I shouldn't be talking because I don't really like anything larger than 16" on S13s.

Actually, those two wheels are 18''

The car on the left belongs to a guy named Irwin and the car on the right is Henry's (NiteKids).

[mr_240sx]

whats the reason behind getting 17`s for the front and 18`s for the rear?

[S14DB]

To make it handle like ass. :ghey:

[ThatGuy]

I think the stretched tires look like total ass, but I understand their functionality. 19's are really big on our cars, but I must admit I'd like to see a set on an S13. Just for shits and grins! :fart: :D

[psychedelicbeats]

19's are nice like on ieatrice's car. can't go wrong with th' daily VIP, right?

[hotrodv]

:D :D :D that's funny!!!

Don't like how the S14 looks with 19" I've seen a couple of picture (I think one on a HCI magazine, of a blue one with front vertex..) too big, don't seem to match the car line for me..

[hotrodv]

don't like..

^ Its not the 19"s that make it look bad its the whole rest of the car ;)

[revat619]

^ and the fact that the style of those rims is just ugly anyways.

[Johny5]

lol fooooook, he's still got wheel gap. i smell a hangin. now compare that to jay's car, where his is slammed compared.

[hotrodv]

I agree about ugly car, it's the only pic with 19" that I've found.. lol

[nigel1]

that pic of the blue 240 totally made me go soft on 19's thanks for shoing me the light. :) :D

[kuruptR]

does any one not notice that 18's and 19's make 240s look like 4x4's...

[Jeff240sx]

Stock suspension makes 240s look like 4x4. I like 18s on 240s :)
http://jeff.obhost.net/filestorage/wheels/side.JPG

I really need to get more pics, seeing as I washed the car and dropped it on coilovers :-\
-Jeff

[Johny5]

and did spacers hopefully too.....

right?

[mr_240sx]

On an S13? :goyou:
yes on an s13!

Bomex full rear bumper

What's with all these people using bomex aero kits w/ questionable taste when these is atleast 50 aero kits avaiblle for the 240SX?

[Twinturbozs]

19x10 with 275's on rear.

from one ugly color to another ugly color.

[hotrodv]

Isn't the 14.5 of neil tjin from HCI, ex orange??

[revat619]

19x10 with 275's on rear.

http://community.webshots.com/photo/120756211/180366721BRRrRy

That looks nice. Only thing it needs are some sideskirts and some kind of rear. Even stock zenki aero would look decent.

[kuruptR]

Dont think the car belongs to him any more, turtle wax gave it away in a give-away...at sema was it?

[mr_240sx]

i love the green color and the paint scheme on how he went with a black roof and painted the top of the trunk black! really nice paint except for he could have picked a nicer aerokit though!

[nistech]

i like the black top on that green car

[Sil Beer S13]

Black roof's car cool.

[Burmonster]

Bomex full rear bumper

Ah, I see. For some reason the bumper made me think of my friend's cars rear end.

http://www.coolcatracing.com/images/rear.jpg

its a do-luck valence

[SilviaDriver]

if its the same orange car from team all stars turned green like i said. its not a black roof. its a CF covered top

[alkemyst]

the word is fast or ass

and more guys than chicks love 19"+ so create your own battlefield there.

I prefer fast on least cash so I run 17x8 98 Cobra's :)
