Wheels look hideous.

Sorry, but just because something has a crazy offset and is wide, doesn't instantly make it a awesome looking rim. If the spoke design is hideous (like those) it is still a shit looking rim, no matter what the offset.

Shit:

Not shit:

I'd prefer a wheel with no dish with a great looking spoke design/colour than something that simply has dish but looks shit.

i think they look hot, but not made for skylines, you can only have certain rims on jap imports that suits them, same goes for euros.

volk for japs and bbs for euros. thats always going to be like that. euros have the styling and japs have something more toy like.

but those rims would look crazy on a merc or porsche. that style imo is more for the luxurious, not for the sports car

Oh I quite understand that these are not a "Skyline" design wheel, that is not my point. They look shit regardless if they were on a Stagea or an Aristo. As said above, there are plenty of nice deep dish wheels suited for the whole VIP look, those are not one of them and I don't understand why you all like them other than the fact they have "Hektik dish bro!".

cus they so hektik bro.... no, not really, i just like the look of them and i guess so do others. every person likes different looks in rims, i do prefer the "tuner" rims for a car personally, but if you want to go VIP, on a nice phat s600 then this is one of the best choices, they just look nice and beautiful.

id love to put BBS on a skyline, but i wont becaus from my view they look shit on a skyline.

i found a really nice set of bbs a while ago which actually looked really wicked and maybe a bit extreme, but they were a 1 off make for bmw, they were 15X15 rears and 15x11 front. you could have fit another rim just in the dish if you wanted to ;)

that rim/style of rim suits heaps of cars i run DH eurolines on my car which look identical gotta have knackers to pull it off, but eh each to there own cant all rock the same shit ay

Those rims are pretty bad looking.. but i love them! Not just cos of the size.. there's just something about them. Would rock them on a Cedric or something VIP

that 350z also looks gangster

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
