Question: How close to flush would these be in the +10? Anyone have pics of a similar wheel with same offset?

Let me check my funds, I might be down for a set.

AutoRnD · 01-11-2005, 10:33 AM

both should be prettty flush! 10 might be out some but camber can bring it back in.

nissantuner22 · 01-11-2005, 11:36 AM

so for a stockish set up, the +20 would look more flush than +10?

oumu · 01-11-2005, 02:56 PM

I have 16x8 +25 and they are flush mabye even out a little at stock height

Drift101 · 01-11-2005, 03:47 PM

if any one is in with me we can swap a pair so that you have both offsets,
im ordering 4 +20 wheels, if anyone is willing to trade me 2 of their +10's for 2 of my +20's i'll be willing to do it. let me know

98sr20ve · 01-11-2005, 05:03 PM

What do these look like? Got a link on your website

AutoRnD · 01-11-2005, 10:43 PM

pics are posted throughout the forum.. mainly in first and third page i belive. these are not in production yet so i do not have them on a 240sx.

AutoRnD · 01-12-2005, 05:32 PM

also... we need a few more ppl for both.. about 2 orders per each offset. come on guys.. Make this happen.
Also, this is not a good indication for the manufacturers.. to show that 240sx ppl want good sized low offset wheels.

Shin_Kudo · 01-13-2005, 02:31 AM

Just wondering... there isn't any chance of getting them with the polished lip, is there?

AutoRnD · 01-13-2005, 10:38 AM

nope no chance. sorry

w1ngzer0 · 01-13-2005, 11:31 AM

i guess people like bling over race

toki · 01-13-2005, 07:59 PM

I don't mean to be the pest and just keep revisiting this thread to criticise, but once again, I really think a main issue is that people don't know what these will actually look like. Tell your manufacturer this and that you would like 2 or 4 wheels cut. If you could even just one make in the offsets and swap them around on the front and rear of a car, I think it would go a long way in getting people to commit. I know if I liked what I saw, I personally would be in. It takes alot to get people to purchase a product that has never even been made or tested before.

SlowCoupe · 01-13-2005, 10:53 PM

yep...it makes me more comfortable buying something i've seen before...i don;t wana buy some wheels that should look like these wheels or somewhat similar

AutoRnD · 01-14-2005, 10:45 AM

that is the issue here. i do not have pictures... of the wheel.. i posted all the pictures that i had. If you want you can pay a little extra later down the line. for these. i will most likely sell them and stock them at 700-800 shipped

s0ldats · 01-15-2005, 12:56 AM

if i'm not mistaken they're the same wheels as pictured except for a different hub bore, offset, and 4lug. correct? will it actually look different besides lug pattern and tires size?

w1ngzer0 · 01-15-2005, 09:46 AM

hey josh,

How is the offset on that truck version? how much lip you think these will have?

like toki said. how about having the manufacturer make one wheel in each offset. that way you can mount them on your or someone elses 240 so everyone can see what they really look like. i bet if you did that you would double or triple the orders.

AutoRnD · 01-16-2005, 04:34 PM

the only problem is.. the manufacturer.. basically doesnt even have any of these in 5 lug for a truck.... he says they are special order. and if i wanted them i'd wait a few months... and in those pics those are on a truck.. and that is pretty much the same way they will look like just different center bore and 4 lug.

toki · 01-16-2005, 10:46 PM

Are you working with a middle man or something? It doesn't take a couple months to cut any wheels. If they have the facilities and they were serious about this, they could squeeze out 2 extra wheels....

AutoRnD · 01-17-2005, 10:47 AM

ok.. here is the deal..
they can make the wheel in 1 month.
Now.. To them its all a numbers game.
and to be quite honest they dont care much about just 20-40 sets of wheel.
they do like crazy numbers.

that is why they probobally will not be able to just push one out cause it would cost them money for not making a lot of money

So does that meen no wheels for us down payers?

SilviaDriver · 01-17-2005, 01:41 PM

im not suprised there are poeple who are waiting to jump in on this. your basically telling poeple to jump head first into a shallow pool, yea you provided pics, but those are some pretty weak pics, sorry to say. i mean its a 12 inch rim or watever on a big ass tire, thats PRETTY HARD to picture on a 240. your trying to sell a product w/o pics and telling us to use our imagination. i wouldnt wanna throw down 600 for an item and i saw in my head.

yea i understand the manufacture cant really do this because of cost. but i would think by having one wheel pushed out, the number of buys will increase by juss one wheel. the number of sales will eventually cover the cost of the wheel, hopefully

im not here to critizie your GB or down your product, im only speaking to let you know why most poeple probably wont jump on this, its a reason y im not jumping on it as of yet

w1ngzer0 · 01-17-2005, 06:00 PM

he has given examples of the color and page one... describes it, really.

AutoRnD · 01-17-2005, 06:35 PM

lolz...
yes the ppl who put down still get their wheels.. =) also... if anything we might consolidate the 10 and 20's into one offset or we can just stick w/ what u need.

Var · 01-17-2005, 08:47 PM

This thread has a record breaking number of retards in it. I feel sorry for you Josh. Good day all.

w1ngzer0 · 01-17-2005, 08:55 PM

thank you, josh. Just making sure.

AutoRnD · 01-19-2005, 12:38 AM

no problemo.. bump for nice wheels..
also it would be great if you could spread the word to other 240 forums as well =)
