At last managed to get a couple of large ones sorted! Easy, when you know how!

[EarL]

Stunning mate.

[Tubby Tommy]

Bigger pics! sorted! thanks

[steve b]

Mind me asking what sizes/offsets they are?

[rev3kid]

absolutely stunning matey a very very nice mr2 i kin luv this colour when the funds are right im haveing one

[Tubby Tommy]

Yeah,

They're 18" 9.5" +42 - Rear with 245"35"18"
17" 8" +35 - Front with 215"40"17"

[steve b]

I thought it looked a bit different, i've seen 16's & 17's before but not going to 18" up back.

[C50]

wow.. what a beautiful colour

I may have to do the 17/18" alloy setup. It's very difficult to get staggered in the same diameters these days*. Are you on coilovers? How much are you lowered by?

*without going rotas, volk, expensive JDM, etc..

[Tubby Tommy]

Its personal preference really, Ive had 17"s all round, staggered too but after going on mr2.com and otherplaces, there are a lot of 18"'s on the back (and front! too big imo) and as long as you go 35 profile and a smaller tyre, rather than 265 or high, they shouldnt be any real issues.

My suspension is non moving! lol, which helps, dont know what it is, it certainly wants changing out! going Tein, but I also want to lower it a further inch! it could certainly do it, still without catching, as long as I keep it firm!

I reckon its lowered by 30-35mm appromimately at the moment from standard! I could have went 10" on rear easily, wish I had now.....

[JP1]

Stunning.

I would be interested to know if they would clear Tein Flex as I am considering a similar setup, the sizes and offsets look spot on.

where did you get them from?? I love these wheel and want to purchase a set

[Tubby Tommy]

They should be fine for the tein's! checked when ordering the offsets!
+35 on front, no issues, +30's or less and could of had some issues, rears changed offsets twice when ordering from +38 - +42 and then thought, hang on were talking 4mm here! lol should be ok

I bought them from an American site who special ordered fthem from Ray's Japan, 4 month wait mind!

[AdDaMan]

gorgeous wheels but would be 10x better with super low offsets

[Tubby Tommy]

with lower offsets, the dishes would have been slightly bigger and would have stuck out further, but on the downside would cause me clearance issues for sure, especially when going for coilovers.

[AdDaMan]

yer i know, its just a shame alot of work is involved to have low offsets
dishu ftw.

[Rob]

Looks cracking mate!

Low offset gives more clearance to the coilover and less clearance to your wheel arch. i.e couldn't fit my H&R coilovers on stock 15"'s with 45 offset, miles of clearance om my inch wider front & rear, 32/30 offset TOM'S.

Mind me asking how much shipping was and with whom?
