what size of these? 16x8?
hehe… like posted above, i prefer the 16" and machined > chrome and 15 though
these were very difficult to find as they are back ordered over 2 months even from whistler direct but they have great customer service and hunted down a set for me at a vendor they recently sent a shipment out too. my Nittos will be here Sat and they will be on shortly after!
a huge shout out to the guys at Norcal, they were fast, cheap and had great customer service also. and from what i understand they carry A LOT of stock unlike most shops that just take your money then order from the vendor. The reason i bring this up is because i had terrible service from another shop trying to get these wheels. they actually took my money. they claimed to have 12 sets and later offered a different size and finish before refunding my money which took a week… incredibly inconvenient
^^ looks very good.
this is the reason im considering 16’s lol :ohyeah:

does it rub with that setup? did you roll fenders etc?
yes it will rub and wont fit unless rears are rolled.
Fenders are rolled, and i dont have that nasty negative camber either. Its all flushed out nicely with my camber kits.

so you only rolled the back? sorry for the 20 questions i just really like that setup lol
Fronts are rolled as well, it all depends on how low you want to sit and what tires you have.
no worries, ive bugged people about stuff like this before lol

Since you’re currently taking questions, how did you roll the front fenders? Did you remove the liner or did you somehow manage to keep it intact?
roll with a roller, something like 8" +20 wont need much of a roll in the front, and a roll in the back for sure. super easy to do if you take your time…
i dont getwhy people run 15’s on these cars. these wheels come factory with 1" larger wheels than eg/ef/ek chassis. but people still run the same size wheels that fit them… its weird to me but my preferences are mine i guess

Agreed. I’ve always felt that 16" with a 24ish inch tall tire looks best. It’s a shame tire manufactures don’t make good tires for 16 inch wheels…
