May I also suggest getting some coilovers and dropping it on those wheels.
Are those the the Club Linea Misterio's on sale at discount tire direct?
http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/brochure/wheel/tmpWheelSpecials.jsp
Cause there are much better sizes then the ones you picked out for $84. Still need spacers with what ever you get.

i wasn't aware that everyone has LM-GT4's, a wheel more expensive than a TE-37 and not stocked here in any good sizes.

08-30-2006, 08:27 PM
sport max = lmgt4 basically
OptionZero
08-30-2006, 08:31 PM
By that definition, any wheel with a thick 5 spoke is the same.
The Sportmax thing is a lip wheel, the Nismo is a concave spoke wheel. As far as I'm concerned, the face-1 version doesn't exist.

Few people have LMGT4s or Advans, as mentioned before.
Furthermore, no one has your wheels for a reason: they suck ass.
If you took your cat, opened its mouth, stuck your cock inside, and yodeled atop a mountain top while dressed like a ballerina, you'd be unique, too...but you'd still be a fuckin nutjob.
Your wheels are little more than glorified jackstands- ugly ones, at that. You know nothing about cars and I pity any automobile you ever think about.

Too wide? They're to fucking narrow. 15X7.5" works but for 18's get the 18X9 5-114.3 45 and some 25mm spacers.
TheTimanator
08-30-2006, 09:50 PM
in case you haven't noticed everybody is being quite sarcastic since your taste in wheels absolutley sucks. When someone said that 7.5 was too wide...that's called sarcasm. Advan vsxx...also sarcasm. (vsxx are made by work not advan). And so on and so forth.
Search through some of the picture threads, wheel threads etc and find some wheels you like with some decent sizing. There are bound to be some wheels somewhere that actually look good, instead of the ugly...things, that you posted above and suit your tastes.
BTW, you guys = :rofl:

if price is effecting your taste might I suggest edgeracing.com, you might consider them basic generic wheels but they're affordable, not ghetto, and the company is really easy to deal with. you should be able to find a decent 17-18 wheel/tire package for $600-900

those wheels will make you standout because they tell the world I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHEELS AND I'M PROUD OF IT. They won't even work on a Honda.

My vote goes for Hot Wheels if you're a cheap ass... and are 5-lug. Probably not though.

OptionZero
08-30-2006, 11:23 PM
IF you knew all that, you'd know that's a substandard width, an excessive diameter for a stock body, and a truly, truly worthless offset.
You can't fit any meaningful tires (width), unneeded rotational inertia (diameter), crappy looks (reality), and I'm guess wouldn't clear brakes and coilovers.
In other words, those wheels are built for a specific market segment: too poor to afford good shit, too lazy to work and save for something better or research better alternatives, ignorant of what he's buying for, and dedicated to going slow.
Congrats. You're an ideal customer. End yourself.

You are fucking retarded.
Your goal is not to go fast, ok so you're a poser.
Wider rim (with limits) = wider tire, which is better (with limits). A 7.5 is a narrow wheel which means you'll have a narrow tire. Less traction is seldom desirable unless you're building a Prius.
Inertia is always bad. More rotational inertia effectively adds weight to your car, which is ALWAYS bad.
Alternatives? Stay with stock wheels until you can afford something halfway decent. You can get (for example) MB's in 17x9 for only a couple hundred more, and those come in a far superior width and offset.
If you have no intention of going fast, you are either building a show car or a daily driver. We have more than enough 240 show cars, and if you want a daily driver there are more suitable cars.
Again, please die.

I saw a pic of some T6s under the caption "I don't want this" and have been letting it bake in my mind, I've seen some retarded crap when people on the net try to talk about physics... but this takes the cake.
Now, First off. that car makes me want to eat an extravant dinner of sushi, enchiladas, and laxatives, then strip naked and shit explosively over every inch of that car, let it bake in the sun for about 3 hours, then roll it in front of a train after being set ablaze.
Since thats out of the way. Take that dumpster wannabe VIP shit back to Rent a Tire and and pray to god you can get your 10$ deposit back to spend on a dictionary.

Do some research. I don't know how anyone can say "I don't care about performance, it's my daily driver." Why wouldn't you want good performance by picking the proper wheels? What are the negative effects? Money? Get a fucking J-O-B.

I will chime in not to flame, but to say that those rims are a horrid choice for your car and I'm lost to why its yellow without any exterior work (i.e. aero). If your on a budget consider inexpensive wheels from Hot Wheels, MB Motoring and the 5zigen FNs. You can also check out sites for used wheels, such as http://www.takumiproject.com/ .
The thread title is obvious enough that you asked for our opinions and proper english does help when posting on a forum.

hmm so let me sum this thread up.
onfire, please take the advice of the people in this thread. i.e. - kill yourself
according to your posts you beleive that since you will not be drifting your car it is ok for it to like shit. wrong. its not ok.
the wheels already on your 4X4 banana are almost identical to the misterios. both are horrid. that also is not ok.
you are "tryna" (trying?) to stay away from these:http://i4.ebayimg.com/03/i/06/92/f3/64_10.JPG
for these:http://img291.imageshack.us/img291/5893/cooliw6.jpg
for this i must please ask you to base jump into an active volcano. today.
and lastly in some point in this thread you ramble on about how these shit wheels have plenty of brake clearance. now of course i know you speak in terms of stock brakes and have no intention of upgrading because you arent gonna be drifting or going fast, but seriously, I doubt these wheels would clear even stock brakes.
instead of buying shit wheels, driving an offroad lemon, and being illiterate to be unique, taking your cat, opening its mouth, sticking your cock inside while yodeling on a mountain dressed like a ballerina would be a better choice for you to be unique as it would not require any taste, skill or knowledge, all of which you obviously lack.

For a php programmer you type, act and think like a moron. Either you suck at your job or you're a total computer nerd who knows nothing else.
To think rims don't affect performance you basically have to know dick about cars or be a complete idiot.
For christ sakes my gf even understands rim size, widths and handling.

Click on your "user CP" on the top left and you will find several negative comments left by other users, this would mean that they not only dislike your ugly wheels, but also your failed attempts at argument, terrible presentation of the english language and generally worthless behavior shown in this thread.
ALL THAT BEING SAID, I found the thread to be quite entertaining, but I must yet lock this steaming pile of shit before it gets any MORE out of hand.
