Heard from Kevin that my rims at the latest will ariive in 8 weeks. Tha'll give me enough time to save up and get me some Toyo T1R tires

Sifu · 01-23-2010, 11:36 AM

***UPDATE***
Group buy price is now set at ONLY $999.00!!! I will keep the list open until January 25 until 5pm PST.
**********s has now set up this GB on their website to take your order directly by clicking on this LINK
Please list as much detail to your order as possible so they can have it ready. Please list your car info, bore size, offsets, color, forum screen name, email, and CONTACT #!. Kevin, Alan, or Ron will call you back by Monday January 25 to go over your order and email you a special order form that needs to be filled out and sent back to them. If you are unsure about offsets, that's ok! They will assist you when they call you back to confirm your order.
Feel free to pm me with any questions or concerns

Maybe you'll have better luck than I did. I ordered my wheels from **********s at the beginning of June, was told I would have them by late July (within 8 weeks), ended up getting them in DECEMBER! Every time I would call them they would either come up with a new date or just not return messages.

That's why I confirmed with Peter @ Forgestar that they will have enough 18" barrels to accomodate this order. Like I said earlier, COULD take as early as 4 weeks or as late as 8...

emac08 · 01-23-2010, 02:45 PM

Kevin stated at the LATEST early march.

That could be the case... BUT keep in mind Forgestar is filling our order and they have said it CAN be as early as 4 as late as 8. Don't be disappointed IF our order takes longer than 4...

What offset would I need if I was going to run standard runflats, but with KW V1 suspension (so lowered about an inch) and wanted to look a little more aggressive?

Most of the guys on here are going with the 8.5/9.5 setup ET 46-48 front and 56-60 rear. If you plan on staying on 225/255 then you should been fine with the listed ET's above. If you plan on going a wider tire in the future, probably safer to go with the higher ET's to compensate.

BBK · 01-24-2010, 01:16 AM

Standard run flats are 215/245... Just wondering if they are going to be ok with that wide a wheel? Down the track I might run 225/255 but have a set of standard tyres to use first...

Sifu · 01-24-2010, 01:21 AM

Oh, those sizes can fit but will be stretched a bit. Probably better to get wider tires too and leave those tires on the stockers as back ups. It's really up to you.

BBK · 01-24-2010, 01:41 AM

Yeah I figured... I don't really want to get a bigger wheel if I go with suspension too. Either same size wheel and suspension or I get one or the other, not both.

im running 225/255 (tires were put on by the dealer without even asking) on the stock sport suspension with the oem 264 wheels.... no rubbing at all.

Sorry to do this, guys, but the wife wants to head out and I don't have time to dig through this entire thread for answers... IF I'm looking to run the widest possible combo (255s in the front, 285s in the rear?), what setup am I'm looking for here?

I noticed the cut-off date tomorrow, so I figured it'd be easier to ask than risk not having time to jump on board with this. I'd also consider squaring up with 255s on all 4 corners, as well, but would prefer to know what can be done staggered.

Let me know and thanks in advance!

i dont think you could do 285's in rear or even 255 up front without stretched tires or fender rolling.. correct me if im wrong.

agreed that setup you'd have to do some fender rolling without a doubt. And then it'd be more up to what method you use and how much you 'shave off'

YEAH! That's what I'm talking about! 255/285 on a 9 front and 10 rear...You would have to get the highest et, rolled fenders, and camber plates and arca's just in case! Anything is possible! But wouldn't 245/275 on a 8.5/9.5 be wide enough? I have the 255/285 set up waiting to be mounted on my 19's running the 245/275 but am in the process of shaving my fenders...
