I bought Work equip 03's

Post by **sip** » Thu May 31, 2007 1:58 pm

Well i tried to get a TE 37 in a +15 offset, but apparently they stopped making them. Suckie. So i bought this set.

15x8 +23 4x114.3 Work equip 03 gold.

My 18's are going up for sale. I know 15's are a little small ( I really wanted 16's), but i think with the right tire and ride height this will be exactly what i'm looking for. I will probably paint them bronze because i'm not a fan of the gold, but i will see when they get here. (i'm currently painting the stock wheels the bronze, i will post pics tomorrow.

I got them at a price i couldn't pass up, because they had ordered them in for a customer and screwed up the bolt pattern, they were slightly scuffed on the outter lip, but hardl visible, they had never been mounted.

Auto RnD has been an awesome experience, i highly reccomend them. Honest, and good fast service so far. If you need anything call Rishie at auto RnD they best service and product I have received from any vendor.

For $300 difference why would anyone. I figure i have never bought any cheap parts for my car, why start now. Volk, Silk Road, Cusco and now Work.

I looked for 3 solid days to find a pic of an S13 with these wheels, no luck. I guess i will serve as a reference for anyone in the nissan community who is considering these.

How have the knock-offs served you?

NO snarky comment?"Satan, is it getting cold in here?"

I'm a fellow 180SX owner BTW. When are you getting another 180, Yokota?

Volk TE37 18x7.5 +40 4x114.3 with Nitto 555 tires.

I would sell them in 5 mins on a Honda forum.

Thanks guys. My wife "thinks they look gay" (not that there's anything wrong with that)

I don't think i like the gold, especially on a black car.

i think it would look better in bronze, What do you guys think?

Then they are pissed that they bought 4X114.3 wheels rather than 4X100

S2000 forums: civic owners would complain because they can get Rotas for 1/2 the price.

Yes, nice dish. Mine won't have that much dish. Mine have about 2-2.5 inches. Do you have any other pics. Oh, and i still havn't found a pic of these wheels on an S13?

Greg, you got mail.

Man what tires do i put on this wheel? I can't find anything in a 225/55R/15. The tire rack doesn't have anything in that size.

205/50 or 205/55

if you want 225s do a 50

wheels look good, too bad they only come in 15s

you would put a 205 on an 8 inch wheel?

I was thinking 215/60 which is a little taller sidewall but a small stretch. I thought a 205 would be a bid stretch?

Post by **nismofly** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 8:01 am

youll find its a lot easier to find tires in 205 though

id say what youre looking for is a 225/50, no 215/60 lol

Post by **srpowered240sx** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 8:10 am

bitchin set of wheels you have got there. now get some tires wrapped on them, and post some pics.

But a 205 50 is smaller than stock radius.

Post by **nismofly** » Fri Jun 01, 2007 8:38 am

15s are really a compromise because all the performance tires come in sizes catered towards smaller cars like hondas, so if you want performance tires you have to run a smaller diameter tire

theres many more stock diameter options with 16s and 17s

hankook rs2's come in 225/50/15, id say those would be your #1 option

On the Hankook canada site it's not, only a 205 is listed. The 225 is on the USA site.

check edgeracing.com or discount tire direct, maybe one of them can ship to canada
