    because any wider on the tyre and ill have no chance of A) fitting under my standard gaurds B) no chance of skidding them C) doesnt look as fucking baller..

    i have 8's atm and its just not wide enough for my liking.

    this isnt a thread about what you guys dont like the look of, or what is "stupid stretch" is or not.
    just keen to see if people have pictures of 15x10-12 ishs on their 86's or if anyone could lend me a pair of them for a couple days max....

    Jacob, i am super keen at the moment to do this, waiting for tax money to make my decision..

    Marvis, i have 14's atm with a kit and it does look fucking cool but when i put the 15's on the rear it improved the look atleast 100x..

    and Joel haha yeah cops love it, atm its definately the loudest 86 in queensland ( i dare say. but seriously...) been pulled over 4x in the last 2 years as a daily driver . once caught mid drift haha.. i have never ever been pulled over for just driving normally, only doing stupid shit, flying round corners, threewheeling out of a driveway when i had an open wheeler and wheel hit ground made screetchy noice and cops sayed thats why they pulled me over.

    they have let me off everytime except when i threewheeled and "did a burnout" they got me for too low, panels, wheels sticking outside guards (lol @ me putting 15x10's on this haha.) and something else stupid.
    i am surprised they didnt get me for too loud, would be 120db+ for sure.

    I don't think you could pick a worse wheel.

    You need to go lower.

    What is you exhaust specs?

    people have different tastes marv, i like superlites on sprinters and think it'd look awesome on Tom's car.

    Tom, superlites > steelies

    i could put 17' chromies on if your challenging me haha.

    for the price, i cannot argue its just too good (220 a pair), and it wont be so mexican ill get shipped back to mehico.

    i would go lower, but i need shorter front coilover springs as mine are wound all the way down (10kg huge springs, want 9kg >200mm free height) and the rear are cut trd 6kg's.
    rails are at about 60mm....

    exhaust atm is 2.25 i think cant remember maybe 2.5" straight through (loudest car IN THE WORLD)



    i like the superlights but i can get two steelies for less than the price of one superlight, and since im on sub $350 a week shitty apprentice wages every dollar i can save is a massive yees from me haha.

    yeah Johl they were the worst imo too but still meh... yes, il be getting the 15x10 zero offset.

    Should buy some 14x10 Watanabe's for $2,500 plus so you can feel good about yourself now that the 10 hardcore 80's wheel enthusiasts in Aus respect your car because you were willing to spend 12 weeks pay on rims.
