Snoozin Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 I love that look... thats why I'm planning to do it on my car with these steelies I just bought for $25... They're going to receive some widening, an extra 2 inches on the happy side.... (yes I realise it's not legal... hence I have my 15's still! Now THAT's what I'm talking about.....

atropine Posted July 17, 2005 Share Posted July 17, 2005 How wide will they be all up? Would look sex at shows with big ugly chromes everywhere until it slowly catches and becomes this decades rice right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well they already handle brilliantly... I'm not doing it to get WOF's, it's purely for looks, so I have the 15s as a wheel for driving on daily.. while the widened steels are there for occasional weekend posing and/or car shows if I ever get round to sorting my engine bay out properly. lowlancer, they'll only be 7.5" wide, but with nearly 3" of lip on them.... black centres is also on the agenda. At this stage I think I'll go for 185/60s on them, it won't be mega stretched but it should look the biz... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lowlancer Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 Yeah I might do something similar, have mega wide wheels with extreme lip for weekends etc, and use current wheels for everyday shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pushrod Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 you can run a 7" wide rim with a 175 tyre and it looks mint I reckon not to stretched but just nice and the wheel is not so wide it willl cause to many problems on some cars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level7 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 hahahaha that vw wouldn't get a wof in nz u need 2" of travel and wheels can't extent past guards... 2" of travel yes. But the guidelines state 2 inches, 1 inch down 1 inch up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peteretep Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 i reckon this style of tyre on wheels looks the best, big rims with fat, ultra low profile tyres. of course it doesnt look good on every car but i reckon its badass Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lowlancer Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 Hahaha woah I might just get my sigma wheels widened a couple inches, make a cool extra set of wheels, and throw some 175s on them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Level7 Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 This is going a bit far in my opinion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ogre Posted July 18, 2005 Share Posted July 18, 2005 yeah i think i might widen my sigma rims to about 8".I think they are 6-6.5" standard.Can get 5" of dish on them without to much work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peteretep Posted July 23, 2005 Share Posted July 23, 2005 that looks like a nice amount of stretch combined with deep dishness...as well as being an insanely nice car. theres more at http://www.volny.cz/capri/Main/uk.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
