haha, i like the dish of the lip on the nismo LMGT4's but they are too flat in the spokes imo ...

thats why i like the drifteks but thats just me

im not sure if the rims will get lost with silver on silver or not

but then again the darker ones will probly get lost at night ...

Go black or bronze in wheel colour and that should stand out to give some contrast.

Another wheel you might want to look into, Bee*R Racing Wheels.

yeh they are nice, but im pretty sure there discontinued and pretty pricey.

getting in 4stud is pretty hard and redrilling is too much effort.

going the cheap option haha

there copies of bee*r's and Lmgt4's.

done a fair bit of research haha

i know from research that jap wheels are better quality and stronger and stuff but im not going to be racing they will only be for street use.

The drift teks are fair cheap and look good.

what would be the best offset to go without having to modify guards ??

thanks heaps for the help guys.

      After market rear camber arm adjustment

      By V35Newbie · Posted

      I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option

      You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)

      I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.

      Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.

      Continental have consistently beaten the absolute shit out of every other performance tyre in Wet/Damp/Cold conditions and give up a little bit of time (half a second at most) in the dry. Almost like it's engineered for German conditions or something. I'd def give those a try.
