I put them on today to put a heat cycle on the tires before they went back into the basement. Thought you guys might want a pic or two since someone was asking what they looked like a few weeks ago. IMO they are "ok" looking, but I'm only using them on the track, not on the street...so who cares what they look like...

Looks really nice josh...i like the black on bronze look

 

looks really good man

 

Bronze wheels look best on black cars.. Very nice

 

Nice wheels and nice jack too.

 

I added your wheels to my sig

 

Yeah, and it looks sick! You should do it

 

I like them. Love the jack too.

 

whats your offset on them?

 

Yeah, I hate how those wheels look like 15 inch wheels because of the lip and how far away the spokes are from the edge. I bet they're light and the car must really accelerate quicker with them on.

 

they do look small, I agree.

That said, at autocross events, everyone (at least everyone who's good) runs smaller/same-as-stock diameter wheels. The fastest civics usually run with 14's!!! Alot of guys have mix-and-match wheels with $$$$ expensive lightweight 16's on their drive wheels and slightly cheaper, heavier wheels on the non-drive wheels.

Hell, even the evo guys change wheels - and their stockers are LIGHT.

basically, it's not a looks contest. If you look all "bling" at autocross events, people just think you are a loser.

 

i always get ignored

 

offset is 35mm

sorry, I ignored you because I thought I had posted it at the top, but apparently not. Sorry!

 

Josh, looks nice. Might have some competition for you in the lightweight wheel catagory shortly

 

do you know if thay will clear 300zx TT calipers ?

 

not sure...but they easily clear the 6th gen rotors and calipers.
