Anyone a fan? Just found this on ra64freddy.com
LOVE how this looks, having a n/a powered ps13 myself im thinking of rocking a similar look untill i can afford turbo/SR power. Has anyone else done something like this in the UK? I cant say iv seen any.
I don't get what underwheeled means dude?
Is it not just smaller than the norm wheels? Don't fill the arches as well, but made up by being stupid low? Whatever it is, that PS looks bloody good!
Me too, never heard that term before.Originally Posted by piman2k
That looks like hes nearly tucking 16inch rim!!!!! Hero!
My mate has a n/a PS with those wheels just not as low, was for sale on here not so long ago.

Personally I prefer wheels that fill the arch and tuck

I though he meant how a S13 comes as stock. Wheels that don't fill the arches.
a lot of drifters do it so the tyres are cheaper
Most drifters run 'normal' 17/18's then just swap the backs when drifting...
The car looks good, maybe too low for over here though? Can't see you being able to get around easily.
I run 13's on my Five.
I think its another way of describing "looking shit"
whole thread with s bodys on small wheels here

Yea it's basically a term the vag scene use mostly, works well here too.
I like it, finding awesome wheels to pull it off is the hard part!
P.s that zilvia thread is wicked! Thanks

Realisticly your going to have to dig deep to buy awesome spec wheels or get some cheap pooh size / spec wheels and have them rebarreled and lipped to get the size you want as the majority of 15 or 14 inch SSR's , Works and other oldschool rims are in weak sizes. Also you may have to look into a 4 stud conversion as 99% of these wheels will come in either 4x100 or 4x114.3
I'm 4 stud at the moment, i know what you mean tho iv bought old/ tatty imported wheels before and just had them redone so il be going the same way anyway
Don't go smaller than 16's mate, from experience I can tell you that being that low with 15's is a major ball ache and a lot of work. Also don't go for small wheels unless you're committed to running low because it'll look like aids.
Think itl be 16 Marc, id be a bit nervous running 15's anyway!
Its currently on 17's so 16's and a chunky tyre shouldn't change the overall height too much anyway, il bear in mind it is on standard shocks too of course!
Ive got sone mental spec 15s being made for me at the moment. Just going to run a 60 profile. To keep to nearbthe same height as my old 16s that ran a 50 profile
