A9H-RX Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 So anyone who has me on facebook would of already seen what I got but thought I'd share it here as well Have made a recent purchase of 12J and 10J wheels for some insane dish. Don't worry I'm not " slammin' " it. Practicality is essential! I was advised by few people that the fronts would require some arch work to fit but can happily admit I have had them test fitted with tyres and they couldn't be anymore perfect! Was hoping to have them fitted for Japfest2 but couldn't get the 265/35 inflated on the 12J rim. Yes it can be done but will be too much stretch for what I need. So I have opened a thread on the wanted section, so if anyone knows of any cheap 275/35/18 tyres going, please let me know. Few pics of the wheels and front wheels fitted. And also the tyre that wouldn't inflate on the 12J rim I hope to have these fitted for Trax. Also my wheels are for sale in my "350z breaking" thread along with loads other new bits! 2 Quote
GMballistic Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Great choice ~ think those are going to look fantastic when fitted. Did grundy help you choose the rear tyre size or something though? Lol. 2 Quote
A9H-RX Posted August 18, 2014 Author Posted August 18, 2014 Please refurb them to candy pink! Was thinking red lip in the future? Quote

Kind of I was more concerned about my front fitment!! Although he had problems clearing front calipers lol Also spoke to RareRims as well who helped a great deal but also said I will need arch work for front 1 Quote
Hell presidente Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 Exactly the same wheel and tyre set up as me man, no arch work and no scrubbing Quote
A9H-RX Posted August 18, 2014 Author Posted August 18, 2014 Exactly the same wheel and tyre set up as me man, no arch work and no scrubbing I think I see your post in a thread when I was initially researching. How much you lowered by? Quote
Hell presidente Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 TBH not sure, just wound down until it sits nice n low lol. Quote
A9H-RX Posted August 18, 2014 Author Posted August 18, 2014 TBH not sure, just wound down until it sits nice n low lol. Was a bit worried about my arch gap but I think the pics I see you didn't look much lower than me.. Unless you gone any lower? Quote
Hell presidente Posted August 18, 2014 Posted August 18, 2014 If the pic worked that's how it sits atm. 1 Quote
A9H-RX Posted August 18, 2014 Author Posted August 18, 2014 If the pic worked that's how it sits atm. Need mine fitted!!! Did you have any problems with the rear rim sitting quite close to rear suspension damper? 1 Quote
