My wheel of choice. Gold in color.

Won't be that big. More than likely 16's

Those are pretty sweet. I really like simple wheels like that. Honestly, I think Bronze would go better with flame red.

They wont concave that much. If at all. But I'm sure you already knew that.

I do know, But it wont be nothing, go to A-Users integra log, [the DC] They concave some for being 16's.

Thats exactly why I chose them. I hate busy wheels.

And really? Eh, I like gold

those are at least a 20mm offset.

the ones that would fit a Neon would have almost no concave at all. (35-50 offset)

Hey, Shut-up. Or my 2010 vote goes elsewhere.

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Fri Oct 09, 2009 9:45 pm

just want to make sure you know that those wheels on a neon won't look anything like the ones on the STI pictured.

16x7 40mm offset

18x9.5 20mm offset

neonslg09 · Post by **neonslg09** » Fri Oct 09, 2009 9:49 pm

Eh, It's hard to imagine it on a neon when you don't post any with them on a neon, granted if there is any. Colors can be decieving too, but yes, there is little to none concaving on the miata. Still <3 the grids.

MoxHair · Post by **MoxHair** » Fri Oct 09, 2009 9:53 pm

I was showing the difference in the offset and how it changes the concave and the look of the wheels. The Miata has a 40mm offset and no concave. That would be very similar to a Neon as that offset is about the average that you need to fit properly. Now you need to see if the Grid is even offered in a 5x100 lug pattern in a 16x7 size.

I like the Grid wheels, don't get me wrong, but the lack of concave on the 35-50mm offset makes them look very bland.

Yes, they do. www.machii.net

What wheel would give me a concaved look? Any, at all?

for the Neon? Probably nothing that fits properly.

neonslg09 · Post by **neonslg09** » Fri Oct 09, 2009 10:15 pm

Didn't think so.

Argh, I'll stick with the grids in gold anyways.

Gold/bronze wheels look awesome on red cars. Actually it works with nearly every color aside from orange and yellow.

theTeejmiester · Post by **theTeejmiester** » Sat Oct 10, 2009 8:06 pm

just run a lower offset, dial in some negitive camber, go a little lower,roll your fenders and make it work, more people need to start trying lower offsets on the neon.

Try telling wheel companies to make wheels that fit the 5x100 lug pattern that aren't 18+ inches.

I am going lower. I will roll my fenders. Not until I have these rims though, and thanks Donkeypuncher.

^^ just keep an eye out on the for sale forums on vwvortex, lots of there cars are 5x100.and many of the wheels are adaptable to our cars. you may be surprised how many wheels there are to choose from if you have a little cash

neonslg09 · Post by **neonslg09** » Sun Oct 11, 2009 9:47 am

That place is so confusing, but I'll keep a lookout. Thanks

I like the bbs' that are on the new GLI's.

theTeejmiester · Post by **theTeejmiester** » Sun Oct 11, 2009 4:38 pm

yeah the dub boys have so many nice stock wheels, makes me green with envy

srtjesse · Post by **srtjesse** » Sat Oct 17, 2009 1:10 am

so 16x8 with a +20 mm offset would be impossible on a neon? what if like stated before we rolled the fenders and negative camber would it be possible then or would it still be too big of a wheel thanks in advance

neonpla · Post by **neonpla** » Sat Oct 17, 2009 12:00 pm

the problem isn't with outwards, the problem is inwards, you don't have enough room.

neonslg09 · Post by **neonslg09** » Sat Oct 17, 2009 3:08 pm

coilovers might get you the needed room, or are you talking about hitting the caliper/rotor?

srtjesse · Post by **srtjesse** » Sat Oct 17, 2009 3:20 pm

so with some spacers and coilovers it might be possible right and like neonslg said were would i have the problem the traction bars or the brakes

i they look sexy. imo, 35mm offset will look fine; and if you want the "flush look" just add spacers and roll the fenders.

I wanna roll my fenders. I'm still have my eyes set on this rim. It's either these or white RPF1's
