HansGT Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Found these at discount tires (18 x 7.5) for 166 ea. They look pretty nice. Similar to the Rota Tarmac II, but with more of a lip. Wondering if anyone has had these before or if they are currently running them on thier GT. Also, anyone know the weight of these? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nachowang Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 Actually right here: http://legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1502&page=17 ... scroll down a bit. Main reason I went with these is b/c of the lip spoiler which matches the rocker panel trim real well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HansGT Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 in your pics the grey looks a lot darker than in the web pic. Was yours a special steel grey? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nachowang Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 in your pics the grey looks a lot darker than in the web pic. Was yours a special steel grey? They're 17s, im not sure about the weight since it wasnt a factor for me But yes, their silver is a bit darker looking or as they call it "machined silver". I wanted something between bright silver and gunmetal, these were close to it as ive seen it on a mini before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nachowang Posted February 2, 2006 Share Posted February 2, 2006 got anymore pics? Hmm...just this one (below). I took those pics with someone else's digi cam cause I didnt have one back then but now i do!! I'll take some pics this weekend if the weather is nice and it would also be a good time to test it out. Han's, what color is your LGT? http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v292/nachowang/IMG_2678.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HansGT Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 Brilliant silver. I'm thinking the machined silver may not be the best option for me....don't know. Maybe the matte black with polished lip....it would be similar to Rodan's ride, except with the polished lip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HansGT Posted February 2, 2006 Author Share Posted February 2, 2006 I looked again a the site. Offset is 38. I think that's not enough for our GT's. Keefe's wheel thread has a 7.5 wheel range from 40mm-54mm. 6.5" (+34mm to +60mm offset, +55) *for 2.5i only 7.0" (+37mm to +57mm offset, +55) 7.5" (+40mm to +54mm offset, +55) 8.0" (+43mm to +51mm offset, +53) 8.5" (+45mm to +48mm offset, +45) *will need to roll the fenders if tires are wider than 255 9.0" (+43mm to +45mm offset, +43) *will need to roll the fenders if tires are wider than 255 9.5" (+38mm to +40mm offset, +38) *will need to roll the fenders if tires are wider than 255 http://www.legacygt.com/forums/showthread.php?t=4426 Guess yours worked even though the offset is 38mm.

Wheels are 17x7 so the +38 offset falls right above that 37 to 57 range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
