I got 16's on mine and nobody complained or said anything when i posted up my car in the members rides, all i got was "sweet rims dude" and "suit the car really well" 16's are fine,

[crazy86]

they might look ok, and drive alright, but when you get into the science of setting a car up correctly, for a car with the wheelbase of the 86, 15" is about as far as you should go, mabey even 14", otherwise you are compromising the well balanced handling characteristics the hachi is known for.
Its not like a law or anything, you can do what you want really, but to those that know a little about set up, to have bigger rims is just unnecessary.

[Wally]

im looking at getting diff wheels down the track... but yeah see how the cash flow is hehe

[Wally]

oh also paid for insurance today!!...

cost me $1690.20 for full comprehensive, agreed value of $8500.

I went with Vigil Insurance

www.vigilins.com.au

these were the only people to insure me http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/dry.gif but least the price was reasonable http://www.ae86drivingclub.com.au/forums/emoticons/wink.gif
