big wheels mean less sidewall = less foldover or sidewall rollover, people call it different things

i wouldnt assume big wheels are worse for drifting. pros dont use them for style.

hellion240sx · 09-05-2011, 11:14 PM

strecthing tires helps drift, no? cause some look stretched and that means well, I will let someone who knows talk more about it.

In my opinion. It looks great on the older Z's S30/S130's, older skylines, Celica-Supra's, older RX7's SA/FB's etc.. but not on the newer S-Chassis.

naw dude, they used to have to wheel specs on their site. 95% sure they are 15s, with the last 5% allotted for them being 16s. Def not 17s.

100% sure they are 16s.

And they look 100% better than 15s.

akuma13 · 09-06-2011, 05:35 PM

I really like the Shakotan/Boso look to a degree, provided it doesn't get taken too far.
s13's are probably the latest model of car I'd ever do it to though, needs more oldschool retro boogie.

chinabean · 09-06-2011, 06:21 PM

FYI on the white one

revcyanide · 09-06-2011, 06:30 PM

the supermade s15

shalezzz · 09-06-2011, 06:32 PM

^the rocket bunny s13 is listed on rim tuck as 16 (anyone coulda made it), but arent you posting specs to the s15 (is anyone saying thats not 15?)

ericcastro · 09-06-2011, 06:49 PM

my old car on 15x8's

I was quicker off the line and in autocross.
and it was easier to keep the smaller rims spinning with a KA.

Downside is that it drifted pretty slow cause they would just be spinning without much traction.

Lukasss · 09-06-2011, 06:58 PM

I guess this would fall into this category?

Strongly Agree.

Its not my style, but i think it looks good because of the amount of effort to make the entire vehicle look good.

Incomparison to the many others that just look horrid imo.

EhrikETFG · 09-06-2011, 07:48 PM

people apparently forget that there are people with 240s on 17x7 +42s that look like shit. its all in the execution

Tearlessj · 09-07-2011, 03:43 AM

Honestly that has to be a pretty good street set up. A lot of tire so it's comfortable. No need to worry about tubs and stretched tires. Tires are cheap. The list goes on and on.

sincity_sil80 · 09-07-2011, 04:43 AM

i like where this is headed^^. there is a lot of benefits to this. Also, i like the white chuki posted up there
