My wheels finally washed ashore (pics)

[Supafly]

after about a 3 month wait, they have arrived! M2 DT05R's fresh off the boat. I know these pics suck but i'll update later with real pics of them....

looking down on the front wheel (needs more camber, lol):

looking down over the rear wheel:

and looking down the side of the car:

the wheels are 17x8.5JJ +25 offset in the front, and 17x9.5JJ +30 in the rear. the clear the coilovers and Z brakes nicely and once i add some camber to the front/rear i'll lower it a bit more.:ylsuper

[240SXedUp]

9.5 in the rear? geeze thats wide. Any pics of the actual wheel?

[Onizuka]

*pssst, you might want to take a side picture so we can actually see what the wheel looks like*

[Silent Drifter]

by far the most pointless thread ive seen today.

from my original post: "I know these pics suck but i'll update later with real pics of them....";)

i was planning on getting the actual pictures i took up last night but i injured my back at work and didn't exactly find time afterward to do so:( but i promise i'll have the pics up soon that were taken with an actual digicam and not my crap-*** phone.

and to silent drifter, sorry i've not entertained you enough with my post, i'll have to try harder in the future:pface

What kind of coilovers and what kind of wheels?

[gmckey]

DT-05R's... suspension unknown.

[Beau]

More pics please. Tons more pics. I ordered the same sizes but I won't be able to afford tires for awhile so I need something to keep me happy for now.

[Supafly]

ok a few more pics... BTW the suspension is Apexi World Sports coilovers, all else is stock as far as suspension goes. sorry for leaving that part out.

[Touchdown038]

Very nice!

[Cyberkreig]

car looks freakin hot.

[dr!ft]

Man those look awesome...

[Silent Drifter]

Supafly youve out done yourself!! Im very entertained!! Those wheels are suhhhhhweet!!

[annunziato39]

Awesome wheels supafly, are you going to do anything to the body to cover the wheels? Don't get me wrong they look great, just curious.

[Supafly]

maybe roll the fender lips a little. with some camber and fender rolling these things will tuck just fine.

[Twintip_yeti]

I love those wheels, my new favorites!

[nissanrcer240]

I love the whole car, nice and clean, and the wheels just set it off

[JayDeeM]

perhaps some 180sx overfenders from jspec.com?

[Onizuka]

Just roll the fenders, you dont need much more to make it look perfect. And it is ultra hot already, you dont want to have to deal with painting a new set of fenders.

[catty]

very nice dude, great job

[240sxGT]

Very very nice! Great lookin car.

[goldollar]

Sup Supafly, love the car that **** is clean as hell! What pasrt of A-Town are you in. I stay in Lilburn but its pretty much Stone Mountain. Do u post on Importatlanta.com buy any chance.

[D1SR240]

very nice, where did you get them and for how much?

[Mr1der]

almost like the first pics were just to build suspense....

looks sweet mate

[The Riot Hero]

damn, im more interested int he car then the wheels, very rare color, wheels look decent, definately need camber or something, they dont look like they belong on the car for some reason to me, just my opinion.

[offtheline]

Nice stuff Supafly. Man those wheels are ill.

[Supafly]

i'm in the buford/lawrenceville area. and yeah im on IA sometimes, i've been on that site for years and have been friends with Julio (site founder) for a good long while.

my sentiments exactly.... although the paint could use a good freshening up, i don't want to repaint the whole car right now just to slap on some fenders or flares. once the fenders are rolled, and i stop being lazy and install the camber plates and my RUCA's arrive they will tuck under the stock fenders nicely. the rears right now might tuck with just fender rolling actually.

D1SR240, i got them in a group buy on Zilvia.net from a company called TougeFactory. The whole set was around $900 or so shipped (can't remember the exact number right now, i believe it was under $900 in fact), i just had to wait about 3 months for them to get made and shipped on a container from japan. the company that manufactures them is called M2.

and to everyone else, thanks for the kind words. i think the deal on these wheels was hard to beat, especially considering they had these sizes and offsets in a 4x114 lug pattern:D. my other choices in wheels would've costed me a testicle or two:(

[whiterps13]

holy ****, thats extremely cheap for that wide. wow, i thought volks were one of my only options, and they cost hella money. they look great

[goldollar]

Hey Supafly u gonna go to the D1 Drift event at Road atlanta in April?
