  1. I think I have decided on going with these with the Dunlop Direzza Star Specs. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseUpServlet?target=wheelCloseUp&wheelMake=Enkei+Performance&wheelModel=EDR9&wheelFinish=Bright+Silver+Paint Could someone tell me why all the pictures I see of LGTs with stock rims all have 5 spoke rims? I have only seen mine and one other one in my area with 6 spoke wheels and that one is either on 08 or 09. I cant recall ever seeing any others with the 6 spoke wheels.
  2. Personally I would like to get a little more rim protection. The road around where I live can get pretty atrocious at times. Especially the hill I live on top of. Also i am not a big fan of the "stretched" look. It just doesnt sit right with me. I am just worried about the rubbing issues which according to Drift there shouldnt be any. Someone told me before that the star specs were about half a size wider than most tires thay size but looking at the pictures above they still look a little stretched. Nevermind. It appears that they do not make the star specs in that size so I wont be going with that. If I got a 7.5 wide rims how much of a difference would that make in terms of stretching? At this point that is my main concern. Well that and picking out the wheels that I actually want. Decisions decisions. Btw I havent heen able to find any pics of a SWP with hyper black colored wheels. I like the color itself but I dont know how well it would go with SWP. Anybody know where I can fond some pics of thos color combo?
  3. Does anyone know if there would be any rubbing issues if I got 18x8 +45 wheels and 235/40/18 tires? My suspension is completely stock. The only modded part of my car is the intake for now I was going to go with 225/40/18 but I saw some picutres up here with that combo and I dont like the way it looks. The tires look at little too stretched for my liking. I am attempting to keep as close to the same diameter as stock so it wont mess with the speedo at all. Im open to any other suggestions at this point. I still havent decided what wheels I will be getting but I know they will be 18s and I am most likely going to get the Dunlop Direzza Star Specs.
  4. Since you are running the same size rims and same size tires I was planning on getting do u have any pictures if what they look like in terms of the stretching you talked about? The rims I am going to get are the rota special stages. The tires I am looking at are either the dunlop sport star spec z1's or the bridgestone potenza re-11's. And opinuins on the tires would be greatly appreciated.
  5. I think this is the size I will be going with. My friend also suggested the same size. Now I just have to find a dealer that sells these rims and figure out what tires I want before the warm weather arrives.
  6. I havent decided yet. I am trying to get as close the same diameter as stock as possible. Any suggestions?
  7. Does any one know if 17x8 with a +48 offset will fit without any problems? I am not very good at wheel sizing so I need some help here. If they will fit then these are the ones I will be getting. http://www.rotawheels.com/wheels.asp?wheelid=52 Thanks in advance.
