eHoward Posted January 27, 2006 Share Posted January 27, 2006 I bought a set. Was on the fence about them and then saw this thread and figured I better take the offer before it's lifted. I'll post pics the day I get them in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paradiso Posted January 28, 2006 Share Posted January 28, 2006 I couldn't resist either. Too good a deal to pass up. It'll be Spring someday and I'll be able to put on Summer tires. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yamie700 Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 If you used these for Autocross would it bump your class? Would you still be able to run stock? How do you order them from that linked website, I saw no way to get them in a shopping cart. Did you all call them directly? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henkle Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 NICE!!! For those who has them on, what are your driving impressions? I was wondering how much benefit do you feel on these lighter wheels? Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyh Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 If you used these for Autocross would it bump your class? Would you still be able to run stock? No, not legally. How do you order them from that linked website, I saw no way to get them in a shopping cart. Did you all call them directly? You have to "select other vehicle" from the left side then select "17" from the "wheels & bundles" section.

crash Posted January 30, 2006 Author Share Posted January 30, 2006 bump^ waiting on Crash's pictures I'm expecting them to come either today or tomorrow... But my Wife's Aunt just passed away, and we're busy making arrangements....

boomshnka Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 I'm putting the RE92s back on mine. I've got Nokian WRs on the stock rims for winter but still probably have another summer of use left on the RE92s. Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AWD-Turbo Posted January 30, 2006 Share Posted January 30, 2006 Does anyone know what the center bore is for these wheels? I want to know if any hub centric rings are required. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eHoward Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I thought rule for stock class has always been you can run different wheels, just not different size. No, not legally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eHoward Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I went for the PZero Neros. Was real, REAL tempted to go for a summer tire, but couldn't do it. I went between the Falken's and the Ventus and settled on the Ventus also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommyh Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 I thought rule for stock class has always been you can run different wheels, just not different size. Correct. Our wheels are 17x7" and these are 17x7.5"; thus thay ain't legal. Martin Luther - "Who loves not women, wine and song remains a fool his whole life long."

yamie700 Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 In order to be considered stock does the offset of different wheels have to match stock as well? If these were only 17x7 I would pick them up for autox, damn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If these were only 17x7 I would pick them up for autox, damn. National Solo Rules 2006 EDITION 13.4 WHEELS Any type wheel may be used provided it complies with the following: it is the same width and diameter as standard, and as installed (including wheel spacers if applicable) it does not have an offset more than +/- 0.25 inch from a standard wheel for the car. The resultant change in track dimensions is allowed. Wheel spacers are permitted, provided the resultant combination complies with the offset requirements of this section. Wheel studs, lug nuts, and/or bolt length may be changed. Vehicles equipped with rims having metric specifications may use alternate rims as determined by using the following procedure: Diameter: converting the metric measurement to inches and using the nearest smaller inch diameter rim. Width: converting the metric measurement to inches and using the nearest smaller 1/2-inch width rim. Offset and track must still comply with the requirements of this section.

EL PAALO Posted January 31, 2006 Share Posted January 31, 2006 easier to just say the wheel has to be the same diameter, same width, and within 6mm of factory wheels to run in stock class, imo. I'd run esp with them. hubcentric rings needed, afaik. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crash Posted January 31, 2006 Author Share Posted January 31, 2006 Everything arrived today. It was all packaged nicely. Hubcentric rings, nice TALL lugnuts, centercaps, etc included... My *only* tiny complaint is that they used their own valve stems w/ the nice metal caps and sleeves instead of the SWEET Eneki valve stems included with the wheels (but I've already gotten over that) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
