Well today I got nothing to do at work so mind as well do something cool on my Silver Cube (well actually not my Cube but same one as my Cube).





Thanks for viewing!!!

Dude... that is F'in awesome. I've actually been contemplating getting some BBS LM style wheels for my steel gray cube. Would it be possible to edit your shot to show both gunmetal with polished lip and bronze with polished lip on a steel gray cube???

kranckerx wrote:yeah you could do that.. Well actually I've been planning to put something different on my Cube like BBS Mesh rims, XXR 002 16x8, or some old skul meshies.. BTW, thanks for the complement but I'll post my Cube someday here with those kind of rims or different maybe.

Would you be able to photochop it for me??? I suck and doing that kind of work.

Those look great.

I've been looking at the 17x7.5 Tenzo Meister Version 2's... I've been having a really tough time finding wheels that i like that will fit this damn thing. The 16x8 XXR 002's only come in a 0 offset... those will be sticking out well past our fenders. It seems like the best fitment on our cubes is a 16x7 +25/+30 in the front and a 16x8 +25/+30. I was looking at the 16x7 002's which come in a +38 offset, but I was worried about the 16" size. Given the factory tire size, we'd actually need to run like a 195/55- 16.. to be the same dia. and I think that looks like too much tires. I prefer a smaller sidewall like a 205/45.. but that is 6% smaller than stock and they don't recommend going any more than + or - 3%. I think something like the Konig Remembers would also look pretty pimp.

Yea... i hear you. I'm looking for something that has a little old school style like a polished lip with rivets. I've found quite a few things that I like, but they either don't come in an offset that is beneficial to the cube, or they don't come in a 4x114 bolt pattern. They do sell a wheel lug adapter/converter, but it is 15mm.. so you'd need rims that were like a +45 offset to get down to +30 once you have the spacer... and that +45 offset wheel is going to have no lip.

Well yeah your right about that. Some meshies comes in 15" not 16" but those are my types though especially the Old sKuL Enkei's like the drift rims something like that and I think 15" is too small for the Cube. 16" is the best fit for the Cube.. hhmmpp!! I'm still searching for some good rims that will perfectly fit on my Cube that's why I'm doing this PSD for a change lolz.. Thanks guys that you like my effort though.

what size tires are you going to run on the 16's?

I agree that a 205/45-16 looks good... but you do realize that is not the correct size for a cube, right? Its is smaller by about 6%.... most wheel and tire manufacturers don't recommend deviating by more than 3%+ or -. Doing so will cause speedometer and odomoter issues... in this case your speedo will read higher than your actual speed... it will also show more miles on your odometer. Deviating by more than 3% can also begin to cause premature wear on your brakes.

Really?? I'm sorry bro but in that case I really have no Idea regarding those things. What I'm just specialized on customizing cars (you know.. for car shows and stuff's like that) but sometimes I don't even think if it will cause some little trouble with the car itself. But of course, I have knowledge on putting the right parts in the right way and some of my peepz used different offsets and they dont care about manufacture stuff you know but in fact you are right regarding the tires. Thank for your info man. Take it easy..

I've been hooking up imports for 10+ years now... you got to know what works and what doesn't man.... if its a trailer queen it don't matter... but if if its your commuter car, it does....

Looks bitchin!

sweet tires

I would so roll with those BBS wheels. I always wish I had bought those stock BBS mesh wheels from my brother that still has his '91 VW GTi. Having them on the Cube in the 16-17" version would be even better!
