  1. I read et25. 20 would be fine up front I really like the jap wheels though. Tempted to get another pair...
  2. Oh man.... I was actually excited about wheels for the first time
  3. I didn't know you meant jap auctions lol I see the specs in the title now Iv got a mate who imports from Japan il get him to sort them. Off to call him now
  4. Now your talking! My Japanese isn't great what's the fitment lol
  5. I do like them but again it's the fitment. I'd need spacers up front which I wanna avoid
  6. Ah the good old law- pick 2 out of 3 What's your thoughts on the other 2 17s?
  7. Yea with that budget il struggle. But you can get more depth with 1 piece wheels. The other 2 options have more depth
  8. Yea that's what I mean But on a widearch car I'd rather have some depth to the wheel design Decisions decisions
  9. Il need to do some more digging. Most of the wide arch ones have 17s or 18s. There are some double staggered with 16s on the front. Might need to get them photoshopped The other thing I'm unsure of with the JRs- for a low offset like 10 you would expect more depth to the wheel. Either a wider dish or more concave. But with the spoke design and stepped lip they seem quite flat for a 10 offset. Maybe it's just the pics
  10. Enkeis are really popular on the mr2 forums but there's not many I like. There were some with a really low offset in 17s but they were worth more than the car I'm leaning towards the 16" JRs after seeing that black mr2. My missus said she preferred them out the 3 lol They're also the cheapest out the lot Il consider over the next few days
  11. Rotas: 7twenty's: JR10s: 16s on an mr2:
  12. I've narrowed it down to 3 7twenty 49 17s £700 Rota kyusha 17s £680 JR10 16s £480
  13. Both lol hence the post I thought the quality of jr and rota were on a par?
  14. Prices are good on the jr3 but offset/width is better on the rotas
  15. Iv always liked rota grids haven't ruled them out
  16. Standard wheels sit deep into the arches so even 40mm won't give be much poke from the standard arches Iv got abflug arches which give around 30mm on the back and 20 on the front 9j et20 will sit right at the front. 8j et35 won't
  17. How about finding me a set that fits the criteria? 1. I had thought about the welch's but not keen on the design. At least the sizes are good 2 and 3. Weak offsets 4. 18s. I'm only looking for 16/17s 5. Wrong pcd 6. Weak offsets I thought you had experience in this lol I know about the rest of the work needing done.... hence the less funds available for wheels
  18. What made them were the dimensions. Iv never liked black wheels cos you lose the design. But with them I wouldn't mind losing the design lol. I won't get dishes that wide anywhere else A lot of the red rocket bunny and liberty walk cars have all black wheels. With black accents it could work But they're discontinued in that offset. And wasn't sure if the weight
  19. Thoughts on the following: Rota kyusha rear 17x9/9.5 both et0, front 17x9 et20 7twenty 49 rear 17x10 et10, front 17x9 et15 JR11 17x9 et20 all round I also found the mkr in et-10 but the mr2 isn't old school enough to suit them. They suit old datsuns well Not ruled out JR10 in 16s with 9j et10 rear and et20 front
  20. Never thought of that il have a look I just found out the steelies are out of stock and the replacements are "only" et -10. So they're out Steve will be happy
  21. Been on drift works but not seen anything decent in 17s for a while I do like the rota gtr/grids in 17x9.5 et 12 but when they do come up they get snapped up quickly. They always go for more as well I have considered 7twenty style 49. They're coming in at 700 which is more than I wanna spend but if I get coilovers from them I can get 0% finance Il see what Chris comes up with
  22. Typo. Prefer 17s The JR site isn't working right for me just now but they do have the 16s in 9j et10
  23. I'd rather avoid spacers if possible but obviously when going wide arch there's a good chance you will need them I like they JRs but in 16s they look too small. I'd prefer 16s Il need to check the JR site again Any other suggestions are welcome
  24. lol they're not that bad The car was only 1200 quid so don't want to spend that or more just on wheels Plus there's a lot more to get Iv only bought the arches so far. Not in a position I can throw money at a second car These are both around the 400 mark. I found it difficult to find anything that comes close to the dimensions of the 16s. Don't want to go as big as 18. Any 17s/16s Iv found with half decent offsets are not in 114x5 pcd
  25. Remember I'm on a budget lol What's wrong with the 17s? The centre caps a bit big but other than that? They're plain 6 spokes with good depth
