wheels choose

[Paddy mack]

I going to upgrade the wheels on my silv shortly as the stand 15 inch items on the spec s are awful, relly let the car down but great fun as there is such low level of grip. anyhow has anyone seen a s15 with a set of ultralitees 941 spec wheels. i like em and seen load of em on wrx's but wounder how the would look, its either them or rial nogaro. anybody got any thoughts on this

Shut up Phil ....... *Topper wishes he still had Works Emotions*............

Bee*R's!!!

 

[Paddy mack]

work

yeah i love the work emo's as well but rota have brought out a 18 inch torque drift which is just like it .i'd like it but i reckon the offset will be too tight. much like the GTR wheel rota due

 

[PhilV]

i have now sorted my wheels so they fit snug in the arches, yay

oh yeh the torque's are the same an cheaper, try those

 

[Topper]

How did you do it Phil?

 

[PhilV]

dunno exactly how they did it mate, i dropped into a garage and told them to sort it out lol and they did sumthign to the suspension and the wheel i think? car doesn't handle any different :S

Pulled the camber in, I expect...

 

[PhilV]

maybe, but I thought that affected handling? the car doesn't seem any different :/

 

[Nicely]

Doesn't necessarily effect handling (except on the limit). Effects how much tyre touches the road and how quickly they wear out.

Stand at the back and look at your wheels. If you can noticably see them angled in at the top, its camber :nod:

 

[Topper]

Thats what mine was like when i bought it, it will effect grip and tread wear :nod:

I only had a contact patch of around 150mm of my streched 225's, now with corrected camber almost all of my 235's are on the floor , but made the wheels stick out, like your did.
