Yeah, there's also a functionality issue. Such as brake clearance, coilover clearance.

Then you have the horrid "sunken battleship" look of +45 offset on that poor, poor car.

Plus, you probably paid more for them than you would for a nice used set of correct width and offset Japanese wheels.


Konig=crap

If you think they fit fine, you have another thing coming...

+45 offset???!?! RICE man, pure rice.

Hell, I run +0 on a 7.5 wheel... Try an imagine the difference.

Next time, do research before you buy.

lol i was gonna do the same thing get some cheap rims just to roll around on, but then i thought about...........sunken battleship, same rims as honduh's, maybe brake clearance, and can use the same tire as on here and a 8 or 9 inch wide wheel for a streched tire look and feel

I'm not being a *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored*. I'm just telling you how things really are. I know you're happy about your JDM tyTe bronze wheels, but they will look like *Censored**Censored**Censored*. Sell them and get something that actually works. Simple as that. If you think this is bad, go post them on Zilvia.net... You'll have 5 pages of people ripping your head off in an hour. Take this as a lesson learned... You bought crap, now you have to deal with it.

chokudori you're a jerk. the man can run whatever the fcuk rims he wants to run. i think they look hot, and spacers are always a possibility if the offset is a problem. trust me is better to err on the side of too high an offset as long as it clears the brakes. i went to low and i have problems with tire rub when i'm fully locked, so i regret choosing that offset. i wanted it to look "jdm" and low offset, but now that i have them on, i wish i had gone with a more practical offset. run whatever you want, its all about balance and function in the end.
