RAlly_DatoB210 Posted February 23, 2012 Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Is offset specifiable or can you only do 0? A set with a ton of negative camber would be excellent. Do you barrel them of is vto a separate manufacturer? Quote Link to comment
Dime Dave Posted February 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2012 Zero is the only offset the 13x7 comes in with a 4x114.3 bolt circle. They are fully made by VTO.

Jesse C. Posted May 19, 2016 Report Share Posted May 19, 2016 It seems that tires are always the limiting factor in running small wheels. Las time I checked, there weren't too many low profile options for them Quote Link to comment

Stitebunny Posted May 20, 2016 Report Share Posted May 20, 2016 Wide and low pro tires are pretty hard to come by. For the street at least. Still searching.... Quote Link to comment

Son_of_a_Datsun_Guy Posted May 21, 2016 Report Share Posted May 21, 2016 I wonder if these would clear my brakes... they'd make awesome autocross wheels... Quote Link to comment

fisch Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 13x7's on brand new 195/50/13's. Hot! Where did you source the tires? Quote Link to comment
B2Fresh Posted October 25, 2016 Report Share Posted October 25, 2016 Found them on Offer Up. You can say they were NOS when I got them cuz they still had the labels on them and were never mounted till I got them.. I also bought some Pirrelli P7 195/50/13 that only had like les than 300 miles on the too.. Both pairs from the same guy.. Wasn't going to pass up that deal.. Quote Link to comment
ByStickel Posted November 15, 2016 Report Share Posted November 15, 2016 I wonder how many big of an order it would take for a tire maker to do a run of 205/60-13s. Sumitomo has a mid-level street tire not too many years ago and may still have the tooling... Quote Link to comment
nvestor88 Posted November 30, 2016 Report Share Posted November 30, 2016 What size tires are members running with these wheels? Is it me or there are not many choice 13" street tires avail? Pics of cars with these wheels? They do look sweet. Quote Link to comment
Stitebunny Posted December 2, 2016 Report Share Posted December 2, 2016 There are not many options for street tires. It sucks. Quote Link to comment
