hughdogz Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 and dont worry about your english, your grammar is better than some of the english speaking memebers here (you know who you are :sneaky: ) :rofl: Skib, you've had some of the worst spelling and grammar on here. That's the pot calling the kettle black. However, I've noticed now that you're a moderator your spelling and grammar has improved 10000% :P Still, you should should use an apostrophe for don't (since it is a contaction of do and not) and please capitalize English, since it is a proper noun, lol ;) What is a memebers? (<= just kidding, I know it's a typo) Quote Link to comment

Bleach Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Really nice Z!!! I was hoping those wheels wouldn't sell so I could buy them up later. :) ...I used to own them So did you have them professionally measured? How did you figure out they're -6mm? I always thought they were zero offset I'm the defender of the French and the Canadian! ...but not the French-Canadian Quote Link to comment

I always thought they were zero offset I'm the defender of the French and the Canadian! ...but not the French-Canadian The offset was on the sell thread : From Drax240z: The 9" wheels are 4.5" backspacing. (-6mm offset) The 10" wheels are 5.0" backspacing. (-6mm offset) It is flush near the coilovers for the rear. I saw them the first day they was for sell on hybridz one year ago and wanted them but it was too pricey for me at this time... I was really surprise that they was still for sale so I jumped the occasion in december! They are not perfect but I think this is the kind of wheels that worth the money to retore. They weight approximatly the same as my Sportmax and they are larger so this is pretty nice! Hope you will find some other nice wheels in the futur for your car! Thx for the comments about the car Quote Link to comment
