I was thinking of getting the Buddy Club P1's for my s13 hatchback. The 17 x 7 wheels some in either 35 or 43mm offset. I have stock suspension right now but i'm to upgrade to coilovers soon. Which offset would be better? Are buddy club wheels lightweight?Thanks, Chris

I didn't think they made the P1's in a 17x7 I thought they only came in a 17x7.5 or 17x8?

You are talking about the P1 SF's, right? Those are not real Buddy Club wheels. The QF's are the real Buddy Clubs and will cost you around $500 a wheel. The SF's are a cast version made by someone over here and stamped Buddy Club (from what I've been told). They aren't even listed on the Japanese Buddy Club website. They aren't a 'lightweight' wheel, but are slightly under 20lbs. I had the QF's (forged) on my WRX and they were VERY lightweight...12lbs in 17x7.5".

Sorry to hijack the thread but Dori Dori: I'm in north broward and recently picked up a 91 240 with a 93 engine swapped in. The guy pulled off some emissions stuff (EGR, AIV?) and idle and air/fuel are off. Been looking for someone with experience down here to help me out. If you would be so kind, email me at mrejda@hotmail. thanks and sorry mods for the off topic
