superlite wheels

BC coilovers will work, they will slam it no probs.

I clicked the wrong size on photo bucket....






dont worry wont be seen driving around like that! i'll get the coilovers in there first

Whats the best way to get good camber adjustment on these things?...... i'm used to nissan's

Those wheels look really hot, but if you drive it on the street with the wheels and tyres hanging out of the gaurds like that, you'll be busted, big time!
Cops hate to see wheels and tyres sticking out of the guards, and even some imported factory cars, like Mercedes SLK55's have to have a little piece of plastic stuck on the gaurds to make them legal.

You are really going to have to pull those gaurds out and flare them quite a bit to cover the wheels.
If you slam the car down, you're going to get a lot of tyre rubbing, regardless of how much negative camber you give it, unless you want your wheels to be almost parallel to the road.

you will need some major rolling, pulling and removing liners. my car is on full low on tein ss. the chassi rails sit around 85mm from the ground and the max camber i could get out of the rears was about 3.1 neg and about 2.1 neg out of the fronts. You may need some offset bushes to get enough camber to make them fit. if not get arches! by the way they look awesome. I sooo want some 15's for the track now. how much did the 16's weigh?

if you get some time could you do me a massive favor and measure the distance from the disk face to the inside of the spoke?

WAZMAN, you should paint yours like this and lower it.

[philz]

ƒü¢k that looks sooo good.

[d-mag]

God Damn! Is that yours Andy?!?!?!

I'd love to rock those rims at the top of the page. Perfect rims for some flares IMO.

God Damn! Is that yours Andy?!?!?!

Nope, just found the pic today

Dang!!! Those offset are wild. I don't think no amount of camber will tuck them under the guards as they are now. Be interesting to know how you'll do it.

The way those wheels protrude outside the guards reminds me of my dune buggy that I had 20yrs ago. When I drove that on the beach or on wet roads, there's this wall of water spray or sand that spewed from each corner.

You'll know what I mean if you drive it while raining.

id pull the yellow stickers off the inside of the rim i did .didnt want the fuzz reading that!

[Szemen]

Thats some insane offset :S Would that be about 5 offset? I'm not too sure about the flares on an NB, some cars pull it off, but NAs pull of flares SOO much better sorry 16bit xD

[philz]

more pics of that SE thing.






front on the fitment doesn't look that great.

You will need to buy a massage parlour to get them rims under the guard.
Seriously, I think every trick will be needed - camber, buncha tricky suspension bits, no liners and plenty of pulling of guards.

I don't believe there is need for anything extreme.

15x8 +0 with 195/50 is somewhat common (note: MXHEVN) and can fit under NB with a roll and neg camber if you are slammed low.

The wheels that Wazman has and also that grey SE, are both the same... 16x8 +4.

So the 15x8 +0 stick out further than the 16x8 +4 by 4mm (so you have 4mm more clearance), the only thing different is the wheel diameter.

Note that the SE is not THAT low and has a fair bit of gap, with the correct choice of tyres I'm sure it will be easy to pull off the same as a 15x8 +0.

If those wheel were 16x8+0 we might be introuble.
