wuttt?? nice wheels, but iffy on the color. to each his own..

 

anymore shots?

 

it is very hard to get the true color in a photo because of the candy. it changes blue and a deep purple (similar to the purple tab on a monster energy drink).

 

looks good son!!! way better in person though. makes me wanna go buy wheels for the supra

 

Phillip, you're my hero. No ____ guy.

 

since killer tc has work xd9 i wanted to know what you guys think?

I also want to pick up a pair of work xd 9 bronze finish in the near future but i have no idea of what size or offset i should get.

i was thinking
1. 17x9.5 68mm all around

2. Front 17x7 37mm
Rear 17x9.5 68mm

3. Front 17x8.5 46mm
Rear 18x10 73mm


Option 2 is what i might be leaning toward more. Also I'll probably be on tien s-tech's would i need to roll my fenders ether option??

 

68mm? I think you're doing the numbers in the wrong direction. With those numbers the wheels would be inside the car lol.

 

i have no idea in offset this will be my first pair of high end wheels. I would like to have the rear wheel to have more of a lip. here are the sizes from the vendor ill probably will be buying them from

17 X 7.0 (37mm) 7.5 (39mm) 8.5 (46mm) 9.5 (68mm)
18 X 7.5 (37mm) 8.0 (37mm) 9.0 (45mm) 10.0 (73mm)

 

Well the 9.5s and 10s just won't fit in those offsets. The others are too high for a huge lip. All XD9s have at least what a 1/2" lip? But the spokes will curve out over it unless the offsets are lower.

 

So you think i would have a good stance with

Front 17 X 7.0 (37mm)
Rear 17x8.5 (46mm)

or should i go with 18x9.0 rear??

 

No, the wheels are too narrow if you're trying to go for the stanced look. 8" minimum for the fronts, 9" minimum for the rears. But they don't offer the proper offsets for a stanced look so I'd check elsewhere.

 

oh ok. Even tho it wont be a stance look i might just go with the XD9's.

In your opinion what setup should i go with the xd9's

 

+73!?
haha

 

i guess thats insane i just copied what Kamispeed had up as there options for the work xd9 rims on there web site

 

Those numbers are NOT the offset. That is the lip size in mm's

 

So what option you think would be good dave?
I was thinking
Front 17x8.5 (46mm)
Rear 17x9.5 68mm

would be perfect, Or should i go with 18x9.0 rear?

 

Pwee,

I posted the specs to my wheels above and my wheels have a 1.5" lip from the end of the spoke (where it makes contact with the inner barrel) and the outside of the lip. I don't believe you can get a crazy lip with XD-9's. At least, I've never seen any...so don't quote me. As far as the stanced look, my wheels barely rub when I have passengers. My tires are a super baby stretch (235's are the proper size) and I'm dropped on S-techs (zero camber front and rear). If you're interested in slamming the car for a Hella-Flush look, just keep in mind the amount of camber you'll have to run and make sure you get a sufficient camber kit. Let me know if you have any other questions. Shoot me a PM if people give you a hard time. We were all noobs at one point...

 

Start off by getting off the 46 and 68mm topic that means nothing as far as fitment

Find out the offsets and do 17x9.5 all around

 

Ok cool thanks for your help Dave
