I see 'em, great looking on your car!

So uh...what'd you do with the other rims in your sig? (sell to me *wink*)

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 5:44 pm

Look good, but I think you should have gone with 17's so you have a bit of sidewall... oh and lower that damn thing would ya!?

supertrick_05 · Post by **supertrick_05** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 5:44 pm

I think they are alright. Obviously there's some better lookin ones out there, but those don't look bad at all. I'd get some new tires with thicker sidewalls though...

DAMINT MAN!!!!!! Im lowered 2 inches on tenzo R springs!!!!......i guess time for new springs!!!!

You have stock R/T struts? They shouldn't fit, however, stick your hands in between the wheel and strut perch, see how much room it seems like you have.

i think they look pretty good as is.....

sidepipe87 · Post by **sidepipe87** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 8:34 pm

Hmmm, not too bad. I actually like the look of the stock R/T wheels on it better myself. It looks lower with them. I guess it's the lack of sidewall on the 18"s

yea i dont have any more clearance from the bottom of the strut to the top of the tire!!! but my wheels are 18X7.5 so i should be able to do a 225 series rite????

jake_tim · Post by **jake_tim** » Sun Oct 19, 2008 10:17 pm

Honestly, I wouldn't change the tire size. That is about the largest size the stock struts can handle. Who cares if they are rubber bands? They look fine. I am pretty sure that a 225 would not fit either.

Leave it the way it is. Its not like you'll be auto-xing or road racing.

With a tire that thin when you hit a pot hole you have a MUCH greater chance of bending the rim. Plus the ride will suffer since the sidewall is much stiffer.

does r the rims

contagious18 · Post by **contagious18** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 1:48 am

not too bad, i like them

jeffie · Post by **jeffie** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 3:52 am

225 does not fit! I tried it too, but it doesn't work, I have now the same wheels with the tire 215 and it fits perfect

Well, he bought 18s...on a neon...I dont think he is worried about the ride that much.

Who doesn't dodge potholes? I know I do, with any size tire.

And you have never, not once, missed avoiding a pothole? It happens...

LilSparkPlug · Post by **LilSparkPlug** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 9:57 am

I think they look great! I like em! I'd move that R/T badge on the door down a bit though. And if thats the largest tire you can fit, so be it.

blackboi50 · Post by **blackboi50** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 12:16 pm

Nice rims but I kind of agree with everyone with a bigger sidewall, however if that's the biggest you can get rock on.

Potholes in Washington D.C. are the worst...there was a guy out front of my apartment about a month ago who got a flat from hitting a pot hole.

sullivan · Post by **sullivan** » Mon Oct 20, 2008 7:40 pm

i think they look really good man... maybe a slight drop, and level it and it would be ace.
