To much time spent on VWvortex...or bimmerforums eh...prolly the vortex.. ;)

I want to see these on an NA...I'm torn between the need of 15x8...and the lust for 15x9s...

Once I get my 96 back, me and Pat are going to do some rolling and swappin and we will find out
:eek5:

I have been running 225/50 15's on my rear 15x8 Panasports for years, but I might look at 225/45's next time I need tires.

I've got 225/45/15 RS2s on the 15x9 now. I rolled the fender lips but didn't pull. I get zero rub. Did you see Emilio's post over on m.net? He says the 225/45/15 R1R is actually closer to a 245

Post some pics.....:friday:

Maybe later this week, I've got some other crap to figure out. And the car is covered in bird crap, bug guts, and brake dust.

Here's one of mine. 15x9 with 225/45 RS2s.

i actually have 225/50 but they are some old discontinued tires my friend had in his garage (potenza re071)....the look like balloon tires on the wheels...i also painted my wheels neon green in the centers thinking they were gonna look cool :bang: but nah...its looks wack....now they are gonna go all gold...ill post up pics as soon as they're done...mean while heres my car with what i just described...oh and its at stock height

Oh. My. God. Keep your wheels but you wanna trade cars? White base model. Drool. Mine's silver base model w/black interior.

Those green rims are well.....interesting....

Oh Jesus what did you do to those wheels?

LOL well it was one of those moments where you have an idea and a picture of it on your mind but when its done...you're like "ummm.....thats not what i pictured" lol

then i was gonna paint them gold (where the green is) but then emmi (cr.net) said "they look like spun mesh wheels" got me thinking twice...so ima just go all gold with no polished lip..like this

225 50's fit you just cant be lowered a shit ton even then it would still work. i wanna fit more like 245's on mine. Moo traction ftw

dam i love all the wide wheels on here. can anybody here weigh the wheels and tire combo????? i would like to know how much they weigh.. also on the NA how low is the ride hight and are they X8 or X9 and how wide can you go?? maybe ill sell my volks and get some enki 16x8 with some 245/35/16 or do the 15x8 UL i love the nickel.
