sanitys Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 So after hours of searching around for nice rims that fit our trucks i stumbled across raguna wheels. Almost all of their wheels are offered in 6 bolt and alot of them look quick nice. The down side they are in japan so shipping will hurt. They also seem to be about 350 each. http://www.raguna.co.jp/sub1.html heres a sample wheel One question i had (yes i searched alot) Im thinking of running 16x8.5 + 7 all the way around with 205/40/16 falken azenis. I know ill probably have to do a fender roll/slight camber, but you guys think ill have any troubles hitting the inside? I read the thread about the konig's or rota's and people were running the 16x8 +10 with no issues, so i did some calculating, and the setup i want only adds 3mm more on the inside, and 9mm on the outside. Oh, going on a 73 620, still has drums all the way around, does switching to disks change the offsets you need? Quote Link to comment

808DA6 Posted June 20, 2008 Report Share Posted June 20, 2008 Wow. Prices are really not that bad considering they're a JDM wheel. Never seen those before. Nice find. -Brian Quote Link to comment

Yes, switching to disks can affect your offsets a lot. I will depend on which method you use for the conversion. I used 79 lower arms, hardbody spindles, and custom upper arms. This conversion widens your track width about 1.125" per side of the vehicle. I also installed a 79 rear axle housing to make the rear match the wider front track width. The 78/79 rear housing is about 2.250" wider than the 73-77 housings. my truck is a 76 620. I am running a 225/50/16 on a 16 x 7 xterra wheel. I think the offset was 35mm. Jason Quote Link to comment
yello620 Posted June 21, 2008 Report Share Posted June 21, 2008 I like the first one on the weblink, there was something very similar on a 510 at canby this year. Really liked them on the dime. Jason Quote Link to comment
