got myself some new rims finally

xxr 527's 17x8.25 +35
going with some Hancook ventus v12's 245/40

still need to get special lug nuts for these rims and get the tires mounted.

in no rush because the roads up here are still pretty salty. wont go on till probably end of march

just a small teaser!

Very nice choice! Are you going to run spacers with that wide of a rim and tire?

Really excited to see them with a photoshoot.

WhiteSRT69 · Post by **WhiteSRT69** » Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:02 am

not sure... people are telling me i should be fine w/o spacers.. but on this test fit, the gap is only about a half inch maybe less. i feel like there will be rubbing... i may need to do maybe a 3mm spacer... anything over that i will have to get longer studs which is something im trying to avoid right now..

i have been debating about going with a smaller tire... i dont want any stretch at all!!!!
right now i bought some 245/40 through my friend who is a shop manager at a local STS. i can always return them and maybe go with a 235/40 tire... wont go any smaller than that!

Now every time I look at the rims all I see are too many holes!!!!!

hmm same offset as the evo and damn do they look hot. I would love to see if they come in 5x114. I am sure they would clear the brembos.
