  1. So I have been killing my self on ebay and craigslist trying to find a good set of spare wheels to put the rain tires on. But every thing is front wheel drive these days so there is very little in the 4x114 15x8 negative offset department. Especialy when your putting them on a chumpcar and you only wana pay about 200 bones cause they are guna get thrashed on.

     

    Currently we are running some very light 16x7.5 +19 watanabes (40lbs with tires).

    As you can see there is Aloooooooooooot of room for more wheel.

    I came across theses bad boys while at summit.com 15x8 - 46 for 50$ a piece shipped! They are kind kittykat meow mix ching chon chinese wheels bet hey for the price they are cheaper than the rubber on them so I dont care if they only last 2 races. The guy who balance them said they he had to use a crazy amount of weight to get tem evened out. dry.gif

    Gota roll the fender just a hair and drop the ride hight a little but its a nice fit . And if I did my math right I just widened out the stance by about 6 inches which should be interesting to see how it feels on the track. I am gunna order up the fronts this friday. Think Iam guna Run 15x8 -20. I will post more pics soon.

  2. anyone know if my differential is a 4.11 or something else?

     

    and what are the benifits of having a higher or lower differential gearing?

     

     

    I dont know what diff you have but the higer the gearing the more top end speed you have and if you lower th gearing then you have more torqe of the line. I think thats right or its completley reverse of what i said :lol:

  3. Gettn ready for the portland race and trying to make a few improvments as I go. First off new tach! I had orginaly bought a nice new one but it would not work with the older style ignition and i fried trying to get cleaver right befor the last race. So as a last minute fix we scavanged an old boat tach and some how made it work.... but it was lame. So I got a old SunPro with shift light off craigslist for 40 bones. It took a little cutting to get it in but its in.

  4. Its a great price but they are +47mm offset(front wheel drive car). Have to buy spacers and maybe longer studs

     

     

    yeah thats the problem , these are sweet old school style and they fit on front wheel drive cars, not a good combo, I figured I would cut someone here a good deal before I sell them to some idiot with a honda accord that dont know what they are.well guess its time to go find a accord or maybe a maxima forum :P

  5. Set of real watanbes 2 piece with magnesium center sections, these are about 10 lbs each. The RS_8 models have interchangable barrels with SSR wheels (cause SSR owned Watanabe for while), one wheel is bent pretty good but could probably be repaired. Have a good set of ecstas on them. The picture of all 4 are when i first got them, they have average wear and tear on them now some scuff. but hey you couldnt barley get 4 tires for this price! Wheels are in tacoma

    4x114

    15x6.5

    +47 offset

    10lbs

     

    165.00!!!
