hey guys i really leaning towards this rims and i would like to see them on a RR. i was thinking about the SBC finish just to be a bit different. but are they heavier and worth the extra money for them?

if you guys have any pics please post

 

17x8.5 is for fwd application and the wheel face looks pretty ugly compare with the 17x9 with +35 offset or lower. It give you the concavity look and still really light. The only "downside" if that you have to run spacer up front.

 

not red but it's the same wheels

i love the SBC look get them i am lol

 

I have the exact set up on my RR which I use for my track tires in the summer and snow tires in the winter. The 17x8.5 is a versatile set up, as I run 255/40/17 NT01's for track and 235/45/17 Dunlop Winter Sport 3Ds; no spacers and no rubbing on the wider track tire.

PM me with your e-mail and I'l send you some pics once I get a chance to wash the car (too cold today!)

oh wow i wasnt getting a notification about this thread so sorry for the late response.

i love the way the concave face looks but i dont want to experience any rubbing. for now the car is a DD and if it sees a track it's a drag strip. does the 17x9 rub? do i need to roll fenders?

the more and more i see these rims the more i want them especially since i have 19"s on and they hurt the handling. my car is lowered with springs and i plan for my next suspension setup to be Blistein struts and GTworx springs. i want to change my car's look

goforward - you have a pm
