Finally got my wheels!!

[Retro_Boy_G]

Well.. thanks to Chopper2k22 i finally got the exact wheels i was looking for.. thanks dude!

Not sure what mods i\'ll need to do to get them to fit.. but i am just over the moon i got the set i was wanting.. i think they are going to look hot on the car! Need some nice centre caps for them too!

Here are some pics for you all to enjoy!

nice. i like 5 spokes.
would of though look nicer if it was all white... but once its on ur fc it might prove me wrong =)

wish i can afford a set of matching rims lol

[Retro_Boy_G]

Thanks guys! I think when you see them on the car you will like the polished lip.. especially if its all clean and sparkling.. looks abit gangsta.. but i still like it.. haha..

I have been told that the rears will slip on but i might have problems with the front.. im going to take it to my local tyre people and ask if they will try the wheels on it first.. hopefully i wont have any problems though.. fingers crossed!

Thanks mate. I got them from a member on this very forum! Stuck a post in the Wanted section and Chopper left a message within a day or 2.. I love this place more and more everyday!

As they say, GET THEM ON THE CAR :Giggle I want to see what they look like too.

what profile tyres u fitting on them..?
lots of ppl here use toyo t1r or sth like that. (thats wot i got but cant remember model name haha)

[sadgoth]

if they are 17x8 and 17x9 (which is what\'s on mine) you\'ll be looking at 235 45 17 at the front and 255 40 17 at the back (you could go to 265s but 265 is a difficult profile to find)

Toyos come in Proxes T1R and T1S the R is the older model i think

[L18M]

hmm.. my tyres were 205 front n 225 rear. think i should get wider rubber for the back.. more grip.. dunt think i\'ll be using it for drifting.. yet!! =p

I\'ve got 265/40 profile 17 inch Toyo T1Rs on my rears, didnt seem too tricky to source?!

just found there were fewer tyre option available in 265 40 17 than the 255 and they seemed to be a fair bit more expensive

Ha Ha.. i will just take them to the local place and say.. i want low profile tryes for these please.. i\'m kinda simple about this kinda of thing.. I don\'t know anything about tyres... or infact cars! haha...

[L18M]

google blackcircle or etyres
they have wide range of tyres n quite cheap

they are a distributor n get local garages to fit the tyres on their behalf.
