wide much?:love:

[tirebob]

Ummm... I am only looking at these pics, but they appear to be the wrong bolt pattern no? They look like 4-114.3 and ur car is a 4-100. If so, they are not gonna work bro...

[Eleanor]

Wow, say good bye to your fenders, lol

I'm quite aware of this!!! That's also why I'm on the hunt for a set of 4x100-4x114.3 adapters... :thumbsup:

[D911]

[phat97yukon]

Gonna look good man:drool:

[nismodrifter]

gangsta gangsta!!!!! That's how its DONE!!!

Go wide or go home!!

Et right now is -7....with adapters it's gona be like close to -27???? I believe minimum adapter thickness should be around 20mm (mine are 25..). I know of people running 15's but there seem to be questions about their strength .

What size tires you planning on running?

Definately going to keep an eye on this thread for more updates.

why?? keep them :bigpimp:

[Dub'd86]

Problem is these are 4x114.3 made for an AE86 if I'm not mistaken~~ I am haven a hard time trying to find a decent set of 25mm Adapters So I may either put these up for sale or trade for a cool set of 13x8 4x100's to save me some hassle.

Holy crap! I some how stumbled across this thread doing a Google search. I completely forgot about this thread and having an account here on Beyond. So in light of this relic of a find I thought maybe an update was in order. As you may have guessed by now I sold the 13x8's some time ago. I now live in B.C. and have for the last 3 years. Funny about this is I actually bought my next set of wheel from the previous poster Tirebob about 6 months ago or so. Here they are on the same car pictured above with some obvious changes over the years. Hope you all enjoy.

OH LAWD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was curious about who about Bobs wheels. Car is PIMP!

[Dub'd86]

Thanks! It's slowly making it to where I want it. Bob's a great guy and his old wheels are in good hands!

[tirebob]

Wicked bro!!! I was hoping I would finally get some pics of this... looks absolutely sick! Those rims bring a tear to my eye... :( Sniff sniff

Glad they went to such a great home though! :thumbsup:

[Dub'd86]

I'm glad you got to see them. I sent you a few pics a while ago via text. Guess you didn't get em. I'll be sure to swing by the shop when I drive out to Calgary. They now have stainless studs all around with proper lockers to boot.

[pinoyhero]

Sick sick whip, love those wheels man
