Volk Ultra C Wheels

[Chris 180SX]

Do you think these would look good on my car? Are they light? I know they are 2 peice and forged 17*7 and 17*8. What kind of tyre size would you recommend? I have some eagles in 215/45/17 for the front... 245/40/17 for the back? Any ideas?

Cheers

Handily for me I know what your car looks like! Not sure how may other people will though...

I say DOOO ITTTTT

[DanS14a]

I would go for 225/40/17 on the rear.

[Chris 180SX]

Cheers for the replies... and i've done it now! I reckon from searching they are pretty light, decent offset etc, and 17s are about right for the SX I think (my 18s are too hard, heavy as jupiter and are kerbed a bit thanks to the rain!)

225 on the back. Yeah I was thinking that (cheaper?) but I don't go for that "Stretch" thing too much. Would I get any "rim protection" from overlap with a 225?

[DanS14a]

On an 8" rim I would say that it would be just a bit, but not much

[DanS14a]

Do you mean you want this kind of "rim protection"..............LOL!!

[Chris 180SX]

That's what I've got now with the 15's! What I really want the sidewall straight down with maybe a couple of mm kerbside of the wheel edge...

[DanS14a]

yeah I would say that 225 would be ok for that

i f**kin hate 3 spokes they just look wrong, but at the end of the day its your car so do what ya want

you managed to lower it yet ?

get someone to photoshop em on for ya

[Chris 180SX]

I'm ordering Nismo S-tune and ARBs this month from the states, will a 25mm/15mm drop be enough lol?

I didn't use to like 3 spokes but they've really grown on me. Aside from the spokes the offsets and weights and sizes all seem to be very suitable for the car.

[DanS14a]

get a good pic of your car and a decent pic of the wheel (not the one above) in order to photoshop it

[Chris 180SX]

This is the only one I can find that might be suitable....

[Easy007]

Are those the wheels you have on now?

[Chris 180SX]

I have 2 of them on, 1 of the others has a bit of a kerb scar, and 18s are too hard for my daily drive. And tyres are expensive for 18s so..

[RyanH]

Are you selling those wheels on it mate?

Fook, nevermind, mine's 5 stud... only noticed on closer inspection to your pic they were 4 stud...

[Chris 180SX]

4 stud FTW Why would you want bigger brakes etc?....

[Chris 180SX]

Thinking about 235/45/17 Eagles as I can get them cheap on the rear rims (8".) Do you guys think i will be ok with clearance? Even after fitting S-tunes? Cheers

[Chris 180SX]

Thanks for the link, £81 is pretty good! Just know no-one will be in when they deliver though Anyone any idea if I can fit them under arches with standard/s-tune?

[Chris 180SX]

Also does anyone know if i will need special nuts as the holes look tall/thin on them???
