i have searched but cant find exactly what i am looking for. What is the “deepest” rim i can get on my car. and what offset would that be. They will be 16 inch rims but i want that euro deep dish look. I cant remember ever seeing a picture of an integra with a deep rim. thank you in advance.
in the front or rear?.. i know ive seen kits for the back that replace some of the arms and stuff for a little more tire size clearance… but as for the front u can only get so deep… tire would rub (unless u plan on always doing very wide turns and using alot of reverse)
Mine have deep lip, but they are 17x7 with a 42mm offset…
well…
my new rims should be arriving next week. They are 17x7 +35mm.
I’m not sure how well they will fit, but i’ll find out.
Spoke design also plays a role in how big the dish looks.
I’m currently running 16x7 +40mm, so the new rims should add another 5mm dish.
thanks guys, i want the deepest dish i can get in a 16x7, i have four brand new tires, 205-40-16. what would rub with a deep rim, the fenders?
the fender would rub because you’re moving the mounting point inwards, which would push the rim outward, leaving more dish. (it’s 6am, i hope i didn’t confuse myself…lol)
the deepest “dish” rim that i can think of is the TSW Thruxton, i always see it in their ad in HondaTuning and a couple other mags, but the smallest size is 18" i think
Yeah, the wheel dealer I bought my wheels off of has these on his 5-series BMW. Truely some of the deepest dish wheels I’ve saw on a passenger car. The rear lip was at least 5" deep and he had them colormatched to the car (Mystic Blue Metallic).
I just got TSW’s for my teg on Friday, and they look great. Pics will be coming soon I’m just waiting for my Ground Control coilover kit to get here…
yeah i heard they were like 5" lips on them, but i kinda like them because of how the hub sits forward and the spokes bend back to make the big lip (i think that came out right) its more unique than others IMO
There is a japanese company that carries rims with huge dish.
I think it was called Deep Racing
a member on here has a very weird offset for our cars that gives the rim alot of “lip” and it’s a wide rim also, i’ll see if i can get specs
Eclypz, wanna sell? i will buy your wheels when you get the new one’s!
Actually…there are not too many “deep dish” rims for FWD cars.
I’ve been looking for a set myself… and the “riken mesh” seems to have the deepest lip I’ve seen for a FWD car… besides the Mugen M7’s.
I don’t concider the rims that were posted to be “deep dish”. The center of the rim, IE the spokes or the mesh… curves out which takes away from the true “deep dish” look. I’ll try to look for the Riken mesh wheels and post it.
how bout these http://www.konigwheels.com/catalog_product_details.cfm?CategoryID=1&ss_id=388
i think they’d look pretty sick.
remakes of the old skool Watanabe/panasports style rims lol still hot though
Here you go, check the chart
just a heads up that my new rims came in, so i am interested in selling them with tires.
email me and we’ll talk
