Sometimes I wonder how that much damage is done, I mean it doesn't look like an accident :|

its just nearly impossible tracking all of them down since i cant be on every forum and alot of people just do it cus they like it and dont follow forums
ive seen a sick benz riding around and a killer white is300 on bbs with red center caps im dying to get a shoot of..and hella bmws i wouldnt even know where to start tracking them down...

THANKS FOR NOTICING THO =]
I know the guy with the white IS. I can't remember his name and I haven't seen him since last summer.

I just don't know how to track these guys down or how to get a hold of them.

I'm not too sure on how to get a hold of him. I haven't seen him since September. Do you know Tony with the black IS300? He probably knows how to contact him.

thinking about selling the 17x10.5s all around for some 18x9/18x10 cus theyd fit better
but after seeing this pic im thinking about keeping them cus 10.5s seem to fit perfect!


and heres how the 18x9/18x10 setup should fit



OPINIONS?

maybe i could just meet halfway and run 18x10 all around...DECISIONS!
im just used to more aggressive fitments-im running 10.5s in the rear on my stock body s13
but this car will ultimately be for my wife so i gota keep this a little more functional =[ ha

^, 9.0's in the front and 10.5's in the rear will fit no problem.
Just need to get the correct offsets.

hmm well ill just have to try the 10.5s up front just to see what im working with here
because the 18x10+23 is almost identical to my setup of 17x10.5+27
so the offsets look on point but 17s just seem way too small since the stocks are 16s already..im way into wheels and crap i know but i mean my s13 has 15x6.5s on it normally so im doing it big compared to that...bah i seriously dont know what i wana do at all! ha

I'm on 18 x 10's up front with a 44 offset. 285/30 tires have a square sidewall and sits flush with my fender at about a little bit more than a finger gap to fender. Still on stock fender, liners and everything.

I'm sure with a roll, a 10.5 will fit easily depending on tires choice and offset, of course. I'm running BFG KDW's, so they run a bit wider than most tires of the same specs.

i think i found my wheels! i found some 19x10+35 for $82 a wheel which comes to about $410 SHIPPED! so hurry someone buy my wheels xD


and from what ive seen...i can run these on my s13 also =]
i thought 19s would look hideous and huge low/with aero it can be pulled of nicely IMO



i just really HATE the sound of that 35 offset =/ probably will rub or something BUT i forget stock sc offset is 50 so MAYBE not

You'll be fine with a +35 on a 10". I've gone with a +25, 10.5" wrapped with 275/35 tires.
A roll or mild cut should do it.

you went with that size up front??! because im getting that size all around
i KNOW the rears will fit perfect and the front will look great-i was just worried about clearing the suspension being so wide with a meh offset
i duno why im worring about the wheels so much when i havnt even started fixing the door handles and stuff yet ha
