Might be interested. Couple of questions for ya. First up, are they all eight inches wide. Reason I ask is because lots of guys run 8's front and 9's rear, which is fine on a T but not so good on a 4. Stuffs with the Atessa a bit even if you're running the same size tyres front and back.

Second question, do you know the offset?

Number three, do they clear the stock calipers without spacers?

Number four, any rash on them? They look good in the pics. Not fussed if the white paint is scratched.

That'd be going anyway. Only worried about the metal.

Cheers.

they did have some scratches in the metal, but most of it was sanded back before painting

Sounding good. Looky, if they're sitting in your shed have a look on the back of one of the rims. There should be a stamp or casting saying ET15 or ET83 or whatever.

The two numbers after "ET" are the offset. It'll either be on the inside of the rim or the back of one of the spokes. Handy to know when you're buying or selling rims. People usually want to know. I know what I need to clear the guards after I fit the camber correction kit to the rear. The current 9's clear now but correcting the camber means they won't. Excess camber bad. Right camber good. Cheers.

    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
    • Yeah it is wild how much wider the Yokohama A050 in 255/40R17  vs Yokohama AD09 in 255/40R17 sits on the 17x9 +22 considering its even from the same brand and adjacent product family 
    • Would love to see some examples of WMI making the same as E85. Only thing I've ever found is this one.  Which suggests WMI is not worth much at all. 
    • And now the washer bottle looks like an orphan. You're going to have to spend money on a wrinkle black painted fabbed ally one of those. Oh, and the brake MC res. That won't look any good after you've gotten rid of the washer bottle. You going to need to go back to work to keep up with this?
