FOO!

It all makes sense now Steve, Flickr is blocked here at work and the filters are temporarily down so that explains why I can see them now and eventually wont be able to again. Sexey!

Do you still have a video of these?  I remember watching that and it was mesmerizing!

Never got a chance to upload these since I got them:

they are 18x9 or 9.5

looks good

Thank buddha you didn't actually buy those wheels.  You know what they say.  Rotas, because REAL wheels cost money.

I'm with Tim on this one but only because I don't like knock-off wheels.

id go with oem wheels or maybe some sti or evo bbs stock wheels

Nothing original but I picked these up today for my new winter set-up.

I smell a wheel whore a-brewin'

Milan, can you take a pic from head on, I want to see how yours sit in your wells, and if they stick out at all...what size tires are those?

Edited the post to include that picture.  I recall your issue but i don't have any problems with the tire or wheel sticking out and that's a 235/45/17 tire.

Stop looking at craigslist for car parts, and start using it for what it's intended for, finding drugs and hookers.

ummm...I've never seen drugs or hookers on craigslist

That's because the ads are "coded". They're there. I know its off topic but I did a quick and dirty search in the casual encounters area in NJ and found quite a few women looking for some nasty hookups, if you know what I mean.

Those rotas are an all around bad idea.  Sure, they look silly on your car because the offset is low.  Those garbage wheels (yes Rotas are worth their weight in dog shit) with the low offset and stretch tires that look like a puckered asshole will ruin the look of any car. 

Plus, we all know what kind of "safety" stretched tires provide. Didn't we bash the shit out of someone over wanting the stretched tires to do that hella guy bullshit?

I don't want em, like I said we were just bored.   I do think his FDooks totally fits, but it is WAY too low for me.  Cup kit is just fine in my book.  Like I said, I like the look of low, but its not practical and... I drive too fast.  It'd never work out.

So im hopefully puttin my spacers on tonight, anyone know the torque spec for the lugs? Im gonna put some threadlocker on and torque em to spec just to be more at peace of mind.  Normally I just do em tight... which has cost me a few studs in the past.

Don't use thread locker on them.  The torque specs for lug nuts is 80 ft lbs.

Not a good idea?

I run spacers on my car and I don't use thread locker.  If you want to make things difficult, go ahead and use it.

Lol, ok.  Thanks man.

That just looks odd to me.  I don't like how your rear tires are all (ughh) "hellaflush", while the front wheels look like you have proper wheel fitment.  What's the reason for having the rear wheels all poked out with the stretched tires?

i still need to roll my fenders n install my camber kit.. other word im not done yet. you got pics of ur car?

phew, the rear does need some camber..

so, you stretched the tire because you didn't roll the fender?

I love concave wheels, but I don't like it when only one axle has concave wheels and the other has flat face wheels.  It looks funny to me.  But thats my opinion, and if you like it, keep it, it is your car.

Are you getting defensive?  He just asked you a question.

Yup.  There's a few pictures of my current wheel set up on the first page of this thread.  They were down because I moved things around in my Photobucket account, but I just fixed that.  You can also see other pics of my car on my profile page.

If you haven't installed a rear camber kit yet, you should definitely take care of that as soon as possible.  That's the quickest way to destroy a perfectly good set of tires in a few thousand miles.  You may be better off cutting the quarter panel instead.  That lip is double walled and is very hard to roll.  Most shops just cut to get extra clearance.  The fenders and front wheels/tires look spot on as far as wheel fitment goes though. 

I have to agree with Mark though, which is why I made my initial comment.  It just doesn't look right to me that the front wheels are flat faced and are flush with the fender, while the rear wheels are concave, poked out and have a stretched tire.  To me, it would look a lot better if it was one theme front and back.

What are your current wheel and tire specs?  What are the wheel and tire specs going to be when you're finished?

well thank you for hating lol jk
