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

kouness · 11-11-2007, 10:35 AM

Well.... my rims are definately not fatty but its something different from the sportmaxes and rotas.. they're 9 lug hole pattern so whenever i do decide to convert over to 5 lug i dont need to look for new wheels...

.. As of right now.. they are on my 4 lug car so it counts as a 4 lug..

they are: Volk RAcing on the front 17x8 +16 and stichs 17x9 +11 for th rears

correct me if im wrong...but does no one see ANYTHING wrong with this picture...like if you spend more money on your engine and suspension work than you do on your wheels...youre to be made fun of and tormented because while you make 300+ rwhp...you roll around on nice lookin cheap wheels...but you can still blow the doors off any Evo or STI???

i mean tell me if my thinking is WAY out of line here...because im really confused as to why i and a few other people in this thread need to stand up for themselves just because they bought CHEAP decent looking wheels...especially those of us who bought them because we just needed something slightly larger for the time being to handle a good amount of power generated by the engine???

Wheels are not only about looking good, they are about performance. Cheap ass wheels are FUCKIN HEAVY, they can flex more, and they can break easier. Really there is nothing wrong with rockin some budget wheels, that's your choice. There IS something wrong with posting your budget wheels on a "phatty wheel pic thread". That is why you are being flamed, besides your "look at me I'm cool cuz I got an SR" attitude. Also I know that there are very high HP SR's out there, I never said it was impossible just EXTREMELY difficult.

heck why not

Mikey213 · 11-11-2007, 01:14 PM

I'm actually thinking about getting those elites, 9 in the front for cheap =0P (going on a soon to be KA-t, JICs cfhood/hatch/doors all painted, so keeping A LITTLE weight down there should be ok...for u mad quiffys)

EJ253 · 11-11-2007, 01:16 PM

ive got volk GT-As
nothing special
17x8/9 +30ish

their spaced out to neg -5ish front and back. its pretty flush
ill post pics of my fitment the next time i go to work on my car
heres the only pic i have right now (i need to take some camber out)

the plan for this summer is to get a set of either 18x9/10 viennas or 18x9.5 work emotion CR kais

shane_lxi · 11-11-2007, 01:16 PM

Not totally flush, but okay. I might space them later. They arent mad tyte jdm, but they arent knock off's either. I think they are Australian, lol. 18x8/9 +20 Axis Widetracks.

Silvia_S13 · 11-11-2007, 03:58 PM

**ThatGuy** · 11-11-2007, 05:17 PM

Ahhh, so now the debate has progressed from "Everyone should have SRs" to "Everyone should Drift".

Perpetual arguments are so much fun.

***dorkidori_s13*** · 11-11-2007, 05:32 PM

blah...this thread was a fun idea...but is turning into shiet

**ThatGuy** · 11-11-2007, 05:34 PM

He was being sarcastic, but hey, let's have a pointless fight where neither side will budge on their point of view on the subject!

4 Lug sucks!
SRs Suck!
Drifting Sucks!

There, that should get things rolling again.

No, because the fitment thread is not limited to 5 lug wheels, drifters, and SR owners. It is open to all wheels of aggressive offset and sizing. We don't need another thread like it.

***dorkidori_s13*** · 11-11-2007, 05:57 PM

well no harm in asking i guess?

**ThatGuy** · 11-11-2007, 06:04 PM

I didn't say there was any harm done.

mr_240sx · 11-11-2007, 06:45 PM

work seeker CX

18x9 +20
18x10+22

4 lug!

articdragon192 · 11-11-2007, 07:51 PM

^ Now that's fatty. No spacers needed either.

Koopa Troopa · 11-11-2007, 11:19 PM

Neg rep to everyone cause you're showing off 4 lug rims...

Dang i like these, where did you get them from? Just curious.

ALEXTHESUS*PECT · 11-12-2007, 12:29 AM

some old wheels:
ssr mk-iir's 15x7 +5/15x7.5 -5

hoshinos:

and some rewinds:

it's hard to get 4 lug abller wheels. if you are into old school wheels then 4 lug; if bigger is better to you, the 5 lug is the only way to go!

FIlthy 24O · 11-12-2007, 01:21 AM

FIlthy 24O · 11-12-2007, 01:23 AM

yeah im dumb...no matter

CKAMC · 11-12-2007, 02:09 AM

I always dog on people... even my friends for buying knock off wheels.

they just look cheesy

like going to chucky cheese's for your 21 birthday party.......

fuck sportmax their wheel "lip" looks so fake it makes me sick.

if you look hard enough, you can find a set of quality 4lug/9hole wheels used(and new) with a "phatty" offset (+20 or less on a 9") for a reasonable price

but typical dumbass american 240 owner likes things cheap and easy.

"but I need beater wheels"

then you need a beater car, because when you say that its saying "I can't take care of my own care due to my lack of driving skill/care for it"

Don't become the sterotypical 240 owner (pay twice for one mistake), brake away from the trend! You can wait, unless your dying from aids.

if it makes you feel better
"Canadian pro drifters use sportmax wheels"

I hope some of you are able to pick up on that last joke
