New wheel opinions

[06SpiceRed]

Oh man those HREs are hot! The volks look just like the BBS RSGTs

[iani1.1]

they do but with the bbs price tag i could just die. lol

[speedjunkie]

I want VIP wheels but not the VIP look? I dont know how to explain it lol

Hella flush with baller wheels I think is the best way to explain it. It will still be a weekend scca car and a daily driven baller car lol

Oh I think I see what you're saying now. So you want a track/baller car LOL.

IMHO that FD looks like a pile of vomit.

It probably is pushing roughly an extra 250lbs worth of bling, stereo, and bullshit. I bet it's slower than a stock FD.

Oh I think it looks like crap, but did you read the article about why they did the things they did? How their culture is tied into it? THAT is the part I can appreciate. Although I wouldn't put a lift kit and mudding tires on mine just because that's my culture LOL.

and its an automatic

Another thing I thought was kinda But I guess if they're not tracking it or driving it much it doesn't make too much of a difference.

if i cant find or decide im definitely gonna go with a set of TE37

Those are VIP style? LOL

they do but with the bbs price tag i could just die. lol

TE37s aren't too cheap either haha.

[iani1.1]

let me rephrase that. used te37 lol

drift events in vip wheels hells yea!! shit looks sexy going sideways... til the tires collapse lol

but nah im keeping the stockies

weekday baller. weekend drifter on stockies.

[Voodoo]

work meisters FTW!

[chickenwafer]

Work Meisters = the best wheels made...ever.

If I cold afford a set, they would be on my FD in a heartbeat. Literally, if I won the lottery- first purchase? A set of Work Meisters.

Then a new R35 GT-R that would be dropped off at AMS for their full catalog, LOL.

[iani1.1]

those work meisters do look hella sexy. id have it in white or black though, not a fan of the chrome look.

anyways ive decided to go with deep dish saleen wheels. theyre cheap theyre deep and not to mention theyre cheap lol



on an fc


i know theyre not vip i but they look good. very aggressive stance and i can use them for daily and weekend scca. i have a set of JIC magic coilovers to be put in and now im looking for some tires. right now im leaning towards some 245 40 17 all around stretched federal tires for fitment and the hella flush look. im looking to spend about 500 on just tires so any suggestions?

[speedjunkie]

Dammit Ian, I love that wheel hahaha. And I JUST put in my deposit for the new wheels LOL. That's alright though, I could get those wheels for my TII and be just like you LOL. Those Saleen wheels look almost identical to the ones Dillon had on his FD. I had looked at Mustang wheels before, but they were GT500 wheels or something, it wasn't stock looking by any means. Those Saleens will look ballin on the 7 though, probably any generation 7 too. It's a basic but VERY clean look. And of course you gotta love the lip too. Great all around. Good find!

Work Meisters are classic indeed, but also very played. At least for FDs they are. I was actually going to get a set of them several months ago (if I'd had the money haha), but then I saw so many FDs with them. If I got anything like those though I'd get the SSR Professor SP1, exact same wheel it seems, I just like the Professor a bit more.

Next purchase after winning the lottery...
-Spirit R FD
-newest Norton Rotary motorcycle (don't remember the exact name)
-all old rotary cars, trucks, buses, whatever I could get my hands on
-Ariel Atom
-big piece of land with a huge garage for everything, and huge house

The R35 is growing on me, and it's very capable, but it's a huge pig still. I'll take a one-layer frame of metal and open chassis around me that way if I get in an accident it's over quickly LOL.

Damn, I really just bogarted this thread lol. Sorry Ian. You should post up your post-lottery win purchases too lol.

[iani1.1]

dillon, does he have a black bluish fd? but yea pretty damn good price for deep dish wheels now i just need spacers lol

my post lottery win purchase (yea just one)

Mazda Furai

the rest of the money goes to it to keep it maintained so i can drive it everyday.

its the Norton NRV588 i believe. the crotch rocket type yes?
those are pretty dope. lol a bike that goes brap brap brap pow is just awesome

[speedjunkie]

Dillon has a Montego Blue that he is currently trying to sell, or maybe he sold it already, his sn is Ranger on this forum.

DAMN! I forgot the Furai. Yeah I'd definitely get one of those too, if I could get my hands on one haha. I'd buy all of Mazda just to get that car haha.

I think it might be the NRV588, yeah. Something like that. Zico showed me the video on youtube several months ago. It was the only bike on the track that was visibly smoking LOL. It was also smoking everything else on the track, so again, it shows that it's a rotary lol.

[iani1.1]

oh that dillon lol. cause theres a dillion i know i went to school with thats here in springs but sold a black blueish fd.

this vid? that sound is just amazing, its probably lighter than my track ready r6
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=48foOHK2tyA"]YouTube- Norton rotary NRV 588[/ame]

id still pay mazda to make me a street version of the furai or i can settle for a 4 rotor scoot fd

[Voodoo]

good choice, i approve

[speedjunkie]

That might be the vid, I'm not sure. I don't remember it having a music track though. That is just a NASTY bike, DAMN! I want sooooo bad.

[iani1.1]

soo i ordered the wheels now i need some tires. thinking about

Fronts: 17x9 - 205 40 17
Rears: 17x10 - 225 45 17 (I'm still debating wether to run 215 40)

these will using federal 595 tires which fit pretty wide. suggestions?
