Ok I got the money for rims/tires now I have to decide. I was planning on getting the 18x8" SSR GT1's but they're $400 a peice. I found another rim (exactly the same) called Nakayama Phantom GT-R for $235 a peice. The 18's only come in 7.5 width, and have an offset is 45, is that going to be a problem? Chestons sight suggests 35-40 offset for the max. Also there are 2 tires i'm looking at, The Pirelli P7000 Supersports, and the Falken GRB-FK451... any comments on these? Thanks in advance.

 

I personally like the stock rims, but if you have the money...

 

Check to see what the material of both rims are.. the cheaper one may cost more in the long run.. if you know what i mean...

 

about the offset i believe that you can put the 45mm on there, i think someone asked this a week ago and someone said that you can put +5 on to the suggested offset without a problem

I work at NAKAYAMA RACING SPORT as you notice in my pick I have the 6 speeds in 18x7.5 in hyperblack. If you want call me at work and Ill try to get you a place with a good price ok. Call on thursday around 10:30 if you want. Just call information and ask for us, we are located in Chatsworth CA. I jsut dont want to give the number out. Talk to you later. Oh yeah we also carry SSR rims and we could talk about those also ok. One more thing I did have to get 5 mm spacers for the rear of the car. If you need those i could hook you up with a good price. Go to my homepage and tell me what you think about the hyperblack.

I'm currently running Pirelli P7000 SS. They run fairly quiet in my opinion, but I'm not too impressed with the tread wear after 13K miles. Anyone have a mileage figure for these tires?
