15x7 zero offset?

Post by **Axel Grungy** » Mon Jan 03, 2005 6:26 pm

i maybe found a set of wheels 15x7 with a zero offset. will the zero offset be alright on my s13 w/o rubbing?? btw im not running coilovers, just agx/hr sports. any help would be appreciated. ( i know you get the "will this fit on my car" alot)

Yeah it will stick out. Test fit. It will be nowhere near any suspension component

ill be running 205/60 or maybe 50 series for autox. i found another person on zilvia that has 15x7 with zero offset and it fits. (205/60/15)

i found a guy who has a batch of konig rewinds. 4 lug 15x7 zero offset for about 600 shipped. so i think i am going to jump on this. they are watanabe replicas like this, but silver with polished lip.

Whoa! The Konig Rewinds? I've only seen them in 14" in 4x114.? How the hell did you manage finding that? I love them, but there's no way that spoke design is clearing my z brakes.

The search continues

don't buy into those, get the real wats if you really want them, don't buy those crappy knockoffs. you already know to have the spacers ready though

Used Watanabes are way over-priced, not to mention the possibility of them being out-of-round from use or any curb hits that aren't visible to the eye. I'd rather buy new. Plus, Konigs aren't nearly as crappy as Rota's, ugh. But Konigs aren't what i'm set on anyway. Team Dynamics seems to be the only lightweight rim, with good offsets that are a good price. Sometimes having rims that aren't $200 a piece is more cost effective when one gets damaged and needs replacing/repairing.

mbmotorsports weapon17x9 +17 $122 each.hahahaha, thats what I runorFN01RC 17x9 +15 $155 each. hahaha. thats only if i really needed something to get rolling on.

edit: those weapons have held up rather well actually, i'm kinda suprised.

BUT i want 16's!

I have looked at the those MB's, they're NICE. But i thought they were 5 lug only. And no, i'm not going to spend $500+ on a 5-lug hub swap when i'm just looking to upgrade my 15's because they're out of round (i'd stick with 15's but it's even harder to find them 7' wide).

techno toy tuning has(had?) the konigs for 325 for a set of the 14's and 525 for the 15's.

i'd buy the 14's but i don't really like the look, but hell i bought a pair of 15" advan onis and i think they look like crap on s13's.

i wish discount would bring in the 4 lug sizes of the a-tec wheels- there's nothing good in the mb weapon but the 5 spoke competition comes in 4x114.3 16x8 +25.

more info on the 16x8 +25 4x114 please!

WHAT!? WTF!

What a tease. I would KILL for 16x8's in that kind of offset. How dare you link to a wheel company that doesn't have a distributor in the states. HOW DARE YOU! I'm having such a hard time finding decent 16's. Don't DO THAT!

all i want is lightweight 16's in a offset less than +40, and will clear my z brakes. is that so much to ask?!

look at esses.us, they have a-tech wheels in crappy sizes, i think they're a distributor but i can't look at the site right now because my work computer sucks. wheeloptions and some other places sell a-tech
