Cheers bud!!!...I\'ll be keeping an eye out tomorrow.
MS1r\'s Every time. SP1\'s are lovely wheels, but hardly anyone is rockin\' the MS1R\'s in the UK.
For all those people saying \'more dish\' - they conme in about 3 different \'disk\' types to give you the chance to balance between dish and backspace for brake clearance, so you can pick and choose :)
I hope you\'re not going to .... about with easy fitment either ;) Go big or go home - those need low offsets and double figure widths. If that\'s your car with the WB, you could probably go for something like a 12j et12 on the rears if you\'ve done the right work on the rear flares.
Valid comments from SiH re: MS1r\'s and the SP1\'s etc...... both lovely but agree that the MSR1\'s would be my choice as they are rarer and look the titties! :mmmm
Anyways, found a couple of good front facing shots - black and chrome! Wonder if this will through a spanner in the works re: decision time!!?? :Giggle

my only issue are clearace for my front and rear brakes.....so that my limit my offset and width decision as there are two types of disk they use for caliper clearance.
mutispokes are winning in the poll!!!!
looks like im gonna go with....9 up front et 31 and an 11 at the rear...et 29..
just waiting for confirmation from SSR.......
not going for gold either....me being me they will be custom of course....just like most of the car...LOL.....gotta keep the theme going!!!
oh well...wheels ordered!!!!!!!!!:rollin:rollin:rollin:Hammer
Thanks For All The Input Peeps
Good news bud - glad to be of assistance and look forward to seeing them on the car ;)
They\'re here......They\'re here.............They\'re here..........They\'re here
Trial fit tomorrow or friday.....woooohooooo after 5 months,,,They\'re here
pics or it didnt happen
lol...it hasnt yet....im not going to work tomorrow....just sitting in waiting for the delivery
Wow - good to hear Ed and looking forward to seeing the REAL wheels rather than my Photoshop versions...... :rolleyes: :driving
oooohh i missed this thread :eek: i love both wheels.
so what ET and width did you go for in the end??
UPDATE MR Ed! :D
i got 18x9 et31 and 18x11 et19.
i would take pics but the car needs to be lowered due to the stretch on the tyres....LOL
they look great though IMO.......changes the look of the car from the GTR\'s
For those wondering i got MS1 professors in cutom TYPE C Bronze
now you have told us it needs lowering, you can now post pics :D :D
where did you buy them from?? states or japan?? ive been looking for some new wheels, just looking at this stage though and wondering where the best places to look.
ED - can\'t wait to see the real pics!

hero! you could of gone a bit wider on the offset... but they look stunning! i love your car! the only thing i would change would be the mesh in the wing vent part...
ED - they look awesome! 888\'s on there too!!! $$$$$ ;)

offset was quite agressivbe already...you cant see from the pics but the outer lip of the dish would hit the inner lip of the rear arches if it was low enough....i have a bit of stretch on the rear and front.
as for the mesh....me too but cant get to it now as everything has been blended in.:(

yes ££££...tell me about it. cheers dude
im done with the car now apart from my new engine which is currently being built.
Didn\'t think it was possible to make your car look better, Ed, but you\'ve done it again, dude :eek:. I\'m a bit lost for words, actually......where\'s the :jealous smiley :rollin

cheers dude....you have no idea how hard it was to get this right....due to my brakes SSR kept telling me that i had to get 19\'s...and that 18\'s wouldnt fit.
Reluctantly they sent me the disk shapes for the 18 inch ms1\'s in the different disk configurations and i made templates for them all and finally decided on which disk to go for.....SSR said if i get it wrong it would be down to me!!!!
iN MY HASTE I NEARLY ORDERD THE WRONG DISK FOR THE REAR WHEELS.......I FORGOT TO TAKE THE REARE SPACERS OFF BEFORE MEAsuring up!!!
when they arrived i was bricking it as i thought i got it wrong....when they fitted i was sooooo relieved:driving:)

mask the skirts up and spray the mesh with satin black would make a huuuge difference!
only problem is after washing etc it peels off after a while.....they were actually black once.....cheap coloured mesh i think.
acid etc primer first then...
ACID....HELL no, my paint dude!!!!
acid etch is primer lol! its for bare metal! you spray it on and it primes the metal and stops it flaking off! lol!!!
LOL.......scuse my ignorance!!!!
:rollin haha ed
look sweet :D we now need better pics :yes
