dude go the 16 inch ROH adrenalins you can't go wrong they're SO good!!

nobody in the world has ever made such a good well engineered rim as the ROH adrrrreeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaahahahahhahahaha

sorry i can't keep a straight face...

..seriously though, if you like the ROH's, get 'em we're not here to provide advice as to what you want, but i will say this,if you get those rims, the next week afterwards you will understand the quality of a good wheel, and you will cometo realise that the ROH's aren't what you were looking for afterall, and you would like to sell them for some better engineered, better designed, better fitting japanese wheels... they don't cost that much more than the australian ones, which aren't actually australian, they are chinese...

....you're not a chinese person... ARE YOU!?

haha, but seriously you will buy them and regret it, and then when it comes time to sell, you won't be able to sell them to ANYBODY ever and you will be stuck with the dreadded curse that is crappy rims sitting in your garage that nobody wants...

Alright how bout you look at these...

Google them I cant do all the work for you

Starcorp - Impul (on tempe tyres website come in chrome and deepppp dish)

Koya - Race Tek (Hard to get in sydney duno wtf u are but seriously hot rims)

Koya - Inox (not as sexi as the above but come in 3rd for aussie rims)

I understand not paying $4000 for jap spec rims just not the weight is conciderably different vrs jap forged shit .. atleast 4 to 5 kg .. really makes back off uneasy when slowing for a light .. im sure its just a thing you have to get used to ..

9.5 max unless you want to mod for the rears 19's are big but fill the guards very nice .. hope you dont want to do any track work tho

8.5 fronts id even shoot for 8's to drop some more weight .. the steering will be very noticable loss and you have to throw it around some corners..

My advice is on what ive done .. so believe it!

More advice please buy good tyres.. ATM im riding on Nankang and I have falken all round stick to a decent brand and dont go for nankang .. they are very hard which means they will last awhile .. but they dont grip for shit ..

I was using very very illegally low treaded falkens .. and they stuck better than this shit .. at least get some good gear on the rears please!!!!

Hope it helps PM if you need any more help

Oh and on the note .. My mate has the second one on his soarer.. on a skyline they look like shit .. really really shit ..

Do you have a picture of the soarer with them on. I checked out those on tempe tyres and don't like them. But those Koya race tek chrome man there sweet better than the two i had posted. A fair bit more to be pay but the wheels make the car in my opinion. Cheers mate

Ill grab some for ya mate.. But trust me give them a miss .. they suk .. they looks really shockers on my r34 (black) and black is meant to look great with chrome..

Yes the race tek are seriously nice wheels and even better in person .. I wanted black but they are sold out and bonus they come in staggered sets 8" front 9" rears and will fit perfect .. you may need a 3mm spacer to clear your front brakes but the 33s are as big as the 34 brakes so u should right..

Trust me ring round for the race teks and the impuls (they look better in shadow chrome - ive got them) ditch those other rims ur looking at.. skylines just dont go with it

      Chatting one someone recently at racing them at QR. They say you can't take turn 2 in one flat stick in 4th. They don't have the torque to pull them selves straight, so make sure you're ringing it's neck out in 3rd instead

      Should you buy cheap Chinese tyres?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Many years ago when I bought my FG XR6T, it came with bald tyres on the back (think pretty much smooth for most of the tread) and brand new Kinforest cheap shit tyres on the front. In the rain, I had more grip in the bald ass tyres on the back, than the brand new Kinforest. To the point you couldn't drive off at a set of lights and turn the corner. Car would only go straight. Very quickly all four tyres were replaced.   A few years back on a VF SV6 I had, it came with brand new chineesium tyres. In the wet at 90kmh, old 1990s tray back tradie utes could corner faster than me. There was one corner on a freeway, in a 90 zone, it's not even marked to reduce speed for those curve, it's not a hard corner, I could put the LandCruiser on mud tyres through with ease (it would easily do the corner in the wet I reckon at 120kmh), the VF however couldn't get through it at 80, as it would want to slide out.   Cheap tyres aren't worth the risk. I like decent brakes, and decent grip.

      Anyone here a submersible fuel hose expert? I pulled my hanger out again for unrelated issues and noticed the hose I popped on last week has already swollen. This is Gates 27093 submersible hose. I've waiting on a response from Gates, but this surely can't be normal? This is on pump gas, not E85.  Is swelling a tad possibly normal? I've also been fighting with my power steering belt.... I've now tossed one and killed two. I just realigned my pulleys again, hoping this time it stays on. It doesn't like high rpm.

      Don't want to side track from the thread too much (don't want to upset the thread starter's run from 2007) so here's some old rusted Nissan Laurels in a parking lot in Nishinomiya, Hyogo-ken:
