240lookis, those are the Eagle Alloys 028s, right? Where did you find them in 4 lug? Also what offset are they? Those wheels all seem to come in negative offsets.

Post by **240lookis** » Sat Jan 10, 2009 9:10 pm

i found them used on zilvia. the offset is most definitely negative.15x8 -30

anyways, im eager to see those 50mm side walls on those 8 inchers.when do you plan on mounting them Lookis?

Post by **ViolentRunning13** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 9:35 pm

You said you have the 15x8 ones right? If so stretch shouldn't be that much.

Post by **placham** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 9:38 pm

Holly $hit, I got to go change my pants. for turning it from that flat black to bright red, thing came out like tits.

Looks like your getting this thing all ironed-out hah?

Did you fix that lug nut stud?, I remember lots of people giving you all kinds of $hit over it.

Keep it coming, just dont get off track and dont it out. And dont listen to some of the on here, their just pricks , they probably cant even change their own oil I bet.

As they say real people do real things.

maybe you shoulda went with a smaller side wall like a 45 series instead of a 50 and the stretch would be more noticeable and feasible

I dont think they make tires this width in lower profile, otherwise they might be more expensive.your wheels are 8" wide, dame, my fronts are 8" and I got 225/45, and I still got room to expand. These are going to be stretched. But my back is 9" and I'm rolling on 235's or 245's, those babies are stretched, you just see wheel lip from back haha.

i havent even checked if they make em in that size but yeah i just thought that he could probably go lower with 45's but then again he is doing almost a one inch stretch so yeah you are right

Post by **placham** » Thu Jan 15, 2009 10:10 pm

Yeah once he stretches them it will take away from the sidewall, you know what I mean.

Post by **240lookis** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 4:39 am

probably gonna mount them this weekend.for the stud, should i just go to autozone and get a stud?

i might go out for a while and burn the **** out of my current tires beforehand.

i have a picture that shows the stretch of a 195/50 on a 15x8. ill try to find it.

Post by **Coolwhip** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 4:47 am

195/50 is fine. But it just seems as a bit skinny considering 195 is what you'll find on a stock steelie.

The basic stretch on a 15x8 would be a 205/50 which I always went with. (And LOVED)

205/55 is nice too.

I vote for burn the crap out of your current tires today and mount new one's tomorrow

Yeah, just get if for 240sx, think their M12x1.25 dont remember the length. You'll have to remove your rotor,caliper, caliper bracket, then you'll have easy access. Pull the new stud in with the lug nut, and punch the old one out.

sry for the thread jack... back on topic

Make sure your knurls on your hub are nice too. Dont' want spinning studs the worst

Post by **240lookis** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 6:26 am

sounds like ill be going out today and burning up my **** tires

i might get a new stud this weekend too, considering it's 4 days long instead of two.

here's a 195/50 on 15x8hopefully d*star doesn't mind, ill delete if you do.

Post by **placham** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 6:35 am

Ricky it's just coincident that we run into each other, I say. LOL , guess its time for me to go back to RB section, where I belong . I think d*star doesn't want his pics to be posted or something.

Post by **Coolwhip** » Fri Jan 16, 2009 6:37 am

were "we" belong... back to the dark side

Post by **240lookis** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 3:15 pm

Today i got my front tires mounted. i have a crazy camaro stance considering 50 series in front and 60 in back.

also installed my rucas finally. well, one side. the other side had super stripped bolts. got those off, and will install the passenger side ruca soon.

pics when i can lower and dial in my fitment.

Post by **Coolwhip** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 3:20 pm

dang that must of been a drag... oh well, your soon on your way to greatness. Waiting for the pics

Post by **240lookis** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 3:52 pm

ya. it sucked. i had to drive down to my auto shop and have them impact gun the stripped bolt off.

i might have to take off my piggy lip for a bit so i can slam the front. lip is already like 2.5 inches off the ground, and i have like 3 inch fender gap.

Post by **240lookis** » Tue Jan 20, 2009 4:02 pm

when my car was on a lift today, i saw that there were 4 or 5 bolts missing from the transmission, by the clutch one of the previous owners did not do a very good job putting it back together. not a big deal though.

however, it does confirm my thought that i have some sort of aftermarket clutch.
