ok lads..in the pic here...I LIKE EM..!! Very Happy they are off a "skyline"... Nervous
18 X 9 all round . they are steel rims , got them real cheap... Nervous ::: one has a "hit" to the inner lip...
no big deal , can get this re- rolled no probs..!! Very Happy ( immaculate apart from this ) Cool

I DONT LIKE....anything BLACK..!!! LOL so WHY THESE....???? ( very different / menopause ?) LOL

they have a +40 offset...! rims on car run a +35 offset...."close"..? ( pigs arse ) Mad Rant
remember i run supra 4 pots up front... Sad

Q.... i have 20 mm spacers on the rear...so no probs here..BUT...just checked and i need 20mm spacers to the fronts to clear the big brakes..! Sad .................IS IT WORTH IT..?...your thoughts lads..?

PICS...YES.







would like to add lads....IF i go the frt spaces, would pay i assume to get skyline ones (hub eccentric )
same stud pattern...but are they the same bolt thred..? or do others nuts have to be got for these..?

I agree Nick, sorry mate, not a fan.

If you go ahead though, I'd put the 20mm spacers on the front to clear your brakes and leave them as-is on the rear.
It will be HARD to find spacers that include a re-sizing of the centre bore. You will probably need to buy hubcentric rings (60.1 to whatever the rim is) then stack them on top of the spacer. Not optimal, but not really an issue if you do it right.

But yeah, not a fan of the shiny chrome lol.
