hey boys and girls,

deciding on a new pair of shoes - Speedy Wheels - Envy HP

what does everyone think of them? probably get a set of 18" with +38 offset, got a quote of $1995 on some Sona SX1 tyres or $2300 with Toyo tyres...

any suggestions/recommendations?

ps. anyone has photos of those wheels on anything? i'm putting it on r33 s2

:P

just make sure offset and width suit the car, you want to make sure they'll fill the guards properly.

above is a great site for different wheel styles, have a look at some of the stuff Work has to offer, Work VS-SS or Volk GT-C's are great

I think those rims would look good on a lancer, not a skyline.

However, 8" with a +35 or a +38 (like these ones) would be a perfect fit for an R33.

Deep Dish looks horn

Makes the car look like a stock car so to speak

We have 9.5 on the rear and 8.5 on the front, the car isn't lowered and no scraping issues either.

we run 275 on the rear 235 on the front.

here is a pic, gotta lub tha fat rubber.....

very nice madmanz. are they from tempe??

oh by the way for some reason my rear left wheel scrapes the guard... don't think other cars do this though?? im using 35mm king springs

Yeah mate got those from Tempe Tyres

The skyline is up at stock height that is why we don't have any problems with it, but if you lower the car i rekon thats when there is problems!

    • They are under bucket shims. Tomei provides a test shim kit and then any measurement of shim required. 
    • I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.
    • I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something? 
    • I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday.
