Hey Guys,

Option 1 Garage quite often get steel wheels in in good offsets and sizes, but the size i wanted sold out already

The can get more in, but need a minimum order of 20 wheels to go ahead

The size i propose is 17x9 +15

They are usually around $120/wheel, but they said that the may be able to bulk discount and once they come in the'd be shipped to you for about $120/set

So all up around $600 for a set of 4 to your door and takes about 12 weeks from them receiving the last payment

Any takers?

yeah, it is a bit really

I noticed some of the drift cars running some that are a different design to the option1garage ones but its pretty hard to find out who sells them in decent sizes and offsets

Steel wheels weigh a f ton. I think most drifters run them in 16" as they are 4wd spec and come in good size and offset.

I know boost can get them in various styles. One of the guys there got heaps in for Silvia's and r31s. Fairly cheep buy can't rember what the final $ was

Or that bloke tyres with nowelsy. He's can get them I have heard.

    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.   
    • I feel there must have been a FB/insta post and the weekend did not start well at all I hope everyone is all okay
