A disk are a slightly shallower rim, and more out the centre of the back, better for brake clearance. with the FD calipers im about to put on, i need as much clearance as i can get.
O disk are all about the dish:)

soot is cus its got 300,000kms plus and runs rich:)

As many times as I see these wheels on a White NA... I don't get tired of them...
Seeing these Equips is what inspired me to get the wheels that I did... Go Team White + Gold Face + Silver Lip...! :mrgreen:

PS methinks those centre caps are abit old hat... is there anything you can do about them?

or you like 'em Kula?

To be absolutely honest, I actually prefer the old wheels, not that these look bad, the chrome looks better on the white than yellow does, might be different in real life.
Those centre caps make it look like a jet turbine from an angle.

yeah its a different look..
a little less aggressive..

i like it more with the new wheels when its rolling, when static its a close thing..

when the car gets painted it will be better, at the moment the wheels are too good for it!

hey kula, awesome wheels!

is it possible to get a shot straight down the side of the car to see how the wheels sit with the guards?

cheers

Gosh I'm going post crazy tonight...

I reckon your car has a good look going ... not the wrapped up in cotton wool... sheltered like a trust fund baby, but the rough and tumble... up for a fight

kula how did you go with the offset of those rims.
did you have any scrub issues. seems to fit quite well on it.

kula · Postby **kula** » Tue Aug 19, 2008 11:36 pm

no problems at all.

to clear the FD brakes i had to fit some 20mm spacers, so the front offset was the equivalent of -10, and that did rub a little on the front.

im not back to NA8 brakes, so no issues.
