I'm after some tough Jap rims in good condition. With the way the Yen is at the moment its been a nightmare trying to find suitable wheels in the sizes i'm after for a good price. I need to find a set asap

Sizes i'm after is 17x9 (front) and 17X10 (rear). 18's are also fine depending on price and 1?x9.5 and 1?x10.5 will also be considered.

Wanting something along the lines of TE-37's, VSK-f's, GT-C's, GT-N, SSR Professors, SA-70TT's, TC-105N, etc...

Would prefer tyres, although not necessary...

^^^ The wheels are going on a stock bodied Silvia, so no way of those fitting unless i run copious amounts of negative camber, which i don't want to do!

Thanks anyway... :(

veilside andrews on NS. really love the rims and was gona buy them myself but got meisters instead. jump on NS and go on the wheels for sale thread. 17x9 fronts and 17x10 rears.

Yeah, i saw Locky's wheels on N.S.com a while ago, but they are ghey offsets and i'll have to use spacers.

Hmm, i tried to edit the original post to include the offsets i'm after but i could only edit this post? WTF?

Anyway, i'm after +0 for the front and +12 for the rear, if the fronts are 1?x9.5 around the +12 - +18 offsets...

Edited by ~Hypnotik~

yeh true i guess about the offsets if you want gansta jap tuffness but 10" on the rears would be kinda pushing the limit.

theres some cr kais on ns aswell 17x9.5 +20 all round. pretty sure those would scrub on stock bodied silvia if lowered and 225s aren't used lol.

I say stock bodied as in metal guards and not fibreglass wide body, but they will be lipped and flared. With a suitable flare and a 235 tire, even with the planned -0.5 to -1.0 camber i'll be running a 10" wheel will be fine. It's going to be tough as f**k, thats why i'm being fairly picky about wheels and want something thats fairly recent and not too old, i want everything to be just right!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
