concave wheels?.?

[20 til 3]

alright...i'll be starting my s14 project soon, and need to figure out my wheels because its driving me nuts....i want a 17x9 to 10 all around with a +10 or 20 offset so it sets nice and flush(can roll fenders or w/e that is needed) i'm going to run megan racing track coilovers all around and it'll set pretty low, but i dont want to spend 1600 on a set of wheels really, if i cant find anything else, thats what i'll end up doing, what do you think???? and what wheels are there out there, these are the few that i was looking at and the price per wheel

enkie rpf1's...17x9.5(can i run all around w/o problems?) 295 a piece in silver
http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e363/drfttruk/enkei.jpg


gram light, 57max 17x9 +12 all around, 390 a piece
http://i43.photobucket.com/albums/e363/drfttruk/L_5435.jpg


and then...the 5zigens, not gunna bother w/ pics cuz you all know them, and i dont think a 17x10 all around would fit to have the concave with them



if anyone has other wheels they know of for under 1500 bucks that have a concave, let me know because i have no idea of any other wheels

thanks, btw i searched and couldnt find much

[TipStylez]

Wheels would be the last thing to pic imo.

Plus, they may look nice in pics, but once installed it could look ugly as hell.

So install them last, unless your sticking with the OEM body style.

But my personal fave are the enkie rpf1s. Only thin spoke design rims i like. All the other ones i hate, Fat spokes ftw!

[articdragon192]

RPFs arent that concave. Look into some CSTs.

[Dousan_PG]

57Max is probably your best bet nowadays for a good concave wheels

basically a poor man's te37

[KiDyNomiTe]

YA RPF1s arent concave, they have a very slight concave to them but nothing fancy. All 57 series from gram light have option concave and all but the pros are under 1600.

17x9.5 is easy to fit, but you didnt mention offsets. Theres also CST, Work XT7s...

[tchenku]

rpf1's aren't concaved, but they are still the hotness!! i'd rock 'em any day...if i had 5-lug.:(

concave wheels = bee-r b5.

[smelly240]

they make those rotas in a number of colors too - but def Bee-R or even the uras ns-01 are sexy concave wheels. the 17x9 18x9.5 57max setup is hot.

[drift freaq]

Friends don't let friends run Rota's. Get the Gramlights. You really cannot go wrong with a Rays.

[smelly240]

i wore that tshirt yesterday - ;)

its hard to not like the price of the gram lights - under 1500 for a set of ray's - like cmon thats awesome.

[20 til 3]

haha...yeah i know that gram lights are a awsome price, but dayum i'm gunna be pissed if i ever nic one still

as for the enkei, they do have a concave on them, i'm not sure what offset but i'd be rockin the +18 on them

as for the car and picking that, i already have a sr20 waiting for it, coilovers, and my color is decided...and i wanna get wheels before i paint it so i can do a small roll on it and if i fuck up, i can easily fix it


where can i get prices on the r-bee's, cuz there sick

[VROOOM]

I figured the URAS and the Bee-R might be out of his budget. Yes they're JDM TIGHT!!

[yokotas13]

Uras are like 170 a wheel

[nismostyle240]

im going for the gravity wheels mos def

[smelly240]

the uras had/has(if its still alive) a group buy - and a advertiser posted some great deals for them in 5 lug... and there was a post about them coming in 4 lug if there was enough interest (tho i think that one fell apart).

gravity wheels = nice i wanna see em in a different color tho.

[articdragon192]

Check their website.

[Taniguchi_Is_#1]

uras ns-01 are discontinued. that's why all the groupbuys and the 4-lug buy are dead. and rpf-1 are about as concave as te37 cup's. :/

Gravity Gullflames are hot, I totally forgot about those wheels. Wasn't there a GB on them last spring?

To the OP, 17x9.5 RFF1s come with garbage offsets. The 17x9 +22 are a nice size for a more reasonable setup, I'd be running those with some 255/40/17s on my car if I had more money.

I don't see how Gram Lights are a good deal. Almost $400 a wheel for a cast wheel? Sure they're nicely made and good looking (well, some of them), but you could just spend a little more and get a forged wheel that's far superior, or spend a lot less and get more reasonably priced cast wheels like Enkeis, 5Zigens, MB Motorsports, Uras....etc etc.

[flamebag16]

anyone know specs on above gravitys on the kouki

[blackflag_Rms13]

Go halfway down... they put their wheels on fuckin everything...

Umm... 17 x 9.5 +18 only has like 2mm less inner clearance than the 9 +22. Sticks out 10mm more. I don't see how that's garbage in comparison...

[turtl631]

My bad, when I had looked at them the only 9.5 available was +38 (US size chart). Didn't realize the JDM sizes included a lower offset 9.5. I guess that's a good size for looks/stretched tires/whatever is cool these days.

work emotion cr kai's are hot

18x9.5 +15 I think. My buddy got a set and they're pretty dank. Work Emotion Kai's are nice too esp. 18x9.5 +12 all around. If you want somethin' different like me, get a set of WedsSport TC 105N, 18x9.5 +10 and 18x10.5 +12. Still waitin' on mine though...

alright...those are some spendy wheels now, how much are the gravity wheels
???? i like them alot...

[joecar]

I just bought a set of gravity gullflames. They take a little while to get though, 4- 6 week wait. http://www.240sxmotoring.com/pearlwhite.html

[S14DB]

I want Wheels that look like a worm hole.

[markyboi]

if there were any nice concave 4 luggers...id be on it...

[20 til 3]

so 290 ey...any cheaper newhere else...and also, is there a concave w/ the 17's????

[Gnnr]

You want concave you gotta pay!

[hella_flushed]

so 290 ey...any cheaper newhere else...and also, is there a concave w/ the 17's????

If you want cheap 17's, try CST D-Spec. They look alot like Bee*R/Uras.
http://www.boyz.co.jp/wheels/d-spec/2.jpg

or

CST Zero-1 Hyper
http://www.boyz.co.jp/wheels/zero-1%20hyper/2.jpg

[redsuns3838]

im not feeling those CST D-specs. look kinda wack.

URAS isnt even expensive. 200 a wheel is dirt cheap...
I mite be selling my uras wheels in chrome btw-shameles plug

[turtl631]

Eh? Gramlights are Forged. I should now I have a set on my car right now. hahhahhahahhahhahhaha

As that other guy said, only the 57Fs are forged. The other ones are cast. How could they sell forged wheels for that cheap? Like I said, the price is midway between many cast wheels, and the cheaper forged wheels.

if you can figure out a way to have m2-hanbai send shit to the US

DT-05R (~$180)

http://www.m2-hanbai.com/m2_new/M2_HP/wheel/dt-05r-typeD-18/dt-05r-d-18-02.jpg

i think the dt05-r comes 4 lug too... just it doesnt come in anything in the US so it really doesnt matter much -

Gravity wheels are ugly, don't mess with them!

The CST wheels are pretty sweet, I really like the Bee*R ones too if you can find them.

Those are the CSTs posted earlier just in chrome.

Key words "kinda look like"

[blackflag_Rms13]

Getting NC-10R;s in the U.S. for a decent price sucks. I've been looking for a cheap way for a while. Shit it's only like ≈$550 for a set...

[Dousan_PG]

You should probably contact Speed Alliance since they recieved their shipment of cst's a while back. I believe theres a few sets of Hyper's in gun metal and black D-specs left...

I know speedalliance gets CST


I was saying it's hard to find the Bee*R wheels

seriously, you live in japan, you have used parts stores that either:

A. are in your backyard

or

B. willing to ship domestically



i dont know why you arent on some hot shit... especially since you know my dude LA (with the ceffy) and he sends me ballzano status wheels that i pay chump change for... (Fab-LUSS profounds and expands, and wald duchalets) case in point...
