"Phatty" 4-lug wheels Thread - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

MrFairlady · 11-09-2007, 06:18 PM

ok...Theres a "Mesh Thread","Extreme Strech Thread" and "FITMENT thread" - while all are a good @ "separating" what your looking for,there is not one for the 4 luggers out there that don't want to go 5 lug($$ or pref) and have some Decent wheels weither 15,16,17 & 18 (I'm sure is tough to find in decent sizes)..
COuld be a deciding factor for some (like me) to go 5-lug,even on a Daily driver.

This will let us know Whats avail and what Still Looks good even though we all know 5 lug has ALOT more selection.
Please pots your 4 lug Wheels..what size and offset and availability of them.

Anyone own these:

Elite 17x9 +15 Gloss Black 4x114.3
Elite 17x9 +15 Gloss Black for 4x114.3. Fits 4 lug 240sx's and gives a very aggressive look.

***CrimsonRockett*** · 11-09-2007, 06:19 PM

Look nice, but they look a lot like D2's.

Dunno if this thread will last, so i'll post after.

k's_silvia2.0 · 11-09-2007, 06:20 PM

HHhhmmmm I dont this this thread will last long.
Although im still 4 lug and I like this thread.
*Edit*
Damn Crimson beat me to it

LOL it says 3 piece look style. Still nice looking rims. What came first the meister or the professor?

hesperos · 11-09-2007, 07:34 PM

ok, isn't 23lbs pretty heavy for that size...

JRas · 11-09-2007, 07:47 PM

"MyS14" on az240.org car think they are the same wheels:

MrFairlady · 11-09-2007, 08:01 PM

My thing w/ those Enjuku wheels was the width combined w/ The offset of them....D2 Rotas I think are like Gay 30+ offset from what I remember and damn sure not 8 wide.

Can't really see how this thread wouldn't be benificial to the site.Would Imagine there are still a few 4 luggers out there that don't really HAVE to go 5 lug.
I mean I wouldn't mind,but my money could possibly be spent elsewhere if the 4 lug wheels were "Right".

UfoZ8myCow · 11-09-2007, 08:05 PM

Meh... Nothing too crazy. 17x8/17x9 Volk GT-P 4 luggers. Gets the job done without resorting to rocking some Rota/Sportmax nonsense.

breakindrifts · 11-09-2007, 08:07 PM

I've got these painted with gold centers.

Eagle Alloy 028 15x8 -27

they actually look alright they look better than D2 the centers dont pop out as much as the faces on the d2 id run them for a daily driver. but 23lbs dam.

smelly240 · 11-09-2007, 08:30 PM

23 isnt that bad for a 17x9 - arent FNs like 19 each @ 17x9?

dont get me wrong they arent "light" but they also arent 30 lb sprotmax

bmx22 · 11-09-2007, 08:32 PM

i got the elite wheels in gold love them they stick out about 1 inch but the hole for the valve stem is gay as hell its like a C shape instead of a circle and its a bitch to get the stem to seal one keeps leaking got to put air once a week..........any one eles have this problem with these rims or did they fix it yet cause my friend got the same rims and its the same shit

Matej · 11-09-2007, 08:36 PM

9-lug wheels are my favorite, I plan on getting some big 9-lug Works or Veilsides or something similar in the future.

Whoever ended up getting these Andrews is my hero.

Thats why I was some what intrested in them

jdm538 · 11-09-2007, 09:19 PM

15x9 +10 (what i was told) YO!

steve_o1989 · 11-09-2007, 09:27 PM

I personally am a big fan of these wheels. They are Rota Grid Off Road. They are 16x8 with a +10 offset. Im gonna grab a set of them pretty quick.

Ok...

4 lug or not, SPORTMAX AND ROTA IS NOT "PHATTY"

This is as bad as people trying to pawn off their 17x9 +35 Sportmaxes as "flush" in the Wheel fitment whore thread.

***dorkidori_s13*** · 11-09-2007, 11:39 PM

well when you actually MAKE the sportmaxs sit flush by adding spacers behind em...they dont look bad...but damn are they heavy *ugh*

but theres alot of shit talking that happens on here by people who spend 2500 bux on a set of wheels...and still run a stock KA...seems a little bassackwards to me *shrugs*

Pank · 11-09-2007, 11:50 PM

your best bet is going to be to run some 9 holes like matej said. Mr Meph just sold quite possibly the hottest set of 9 holes ever:

Well...I'm def not calling rota or Sportmax "Phatty"...but in the terms of Nice looking (who cares what Brand) and more importantly..Nice Offset (fitting) wheels.

I sure as hell would rather save the $1800+ wheels for the Supra and some Decent wheels for the daily.in 4 lug,hence, not going to 5 lug to put that money elsewhere.

I'm personally looking for a 17" wheel..but would like to see any.
Rocking the 16x8's +25 now.
