NEW 20's

[G-RELL]

Whats up guys....been awhile.

Just picked up a set of new Niche Game rims with Nitto NT555s. They're 20x8.5, tires are 245/35/20s. I've only driven to dinner and back (couple miles in town and a the highway), but they ride is amazing. no loss at all. granted my old stocks were junk.... but so far, they're great.

Here's some quick before and after pics.

Ughh sexy rims.. Juss need some lowering springs now

 

[G-RELL]

yeah... it would help.... although they fill out pretty well. better then i thought. I just dont want to run into clearance issues.

Looks nice, go take a picture of the whole car side view..

 

[FASTLLS]

I've always liked the niche wheels.. nice

 

[Andrizzle]

I like them a lot. But damn those bad boys stick out like a mofo! Better not curb rash that sh!t!

Also Eibachs would complete the car. With tint of course.

 

[Alax7]

Those are nice. Agreed with a drop, it will make them look so much better

Thanks...I cant get anywhere near a curb. (im just waiting to see how long it takes). It sounds like the Eibachs have the least drop. 1.0 and 1.1. It just looks like it would put the tires close to the finder. Im sure they'd have to be rolled then. add the weight of myself and any passengers and it will be damn close. all well. time to bust out the baseball bat then.

In reality eibachs are closer to 1.5" drop from what people have said on here.

 

[G-RELL]

i just dont know if its possible with these. 1.5 seems like its going to be close with this offset and tires. maybe not...

Those Niche wheels are super tight. I would fear every curb I came too, just park it in the middle of the road, tell'em to go around

i'll just wire my flashers to be on with the ignition . I parked in the back of the lot at dinner last night with NO ONE around, got out, and half my tire was in the only pot hole in the parking lot.

 

[G-RELL]

is anyone running the same tire size with a drop? I'll have to go back and look, but its either a +38 or 45 offset. just from looking at it, not sure if it would be possible without rubbing.

AHHH yes...avoid the curb monster at all costs. They look great, but Eibachs would be sweet if your offset can handle them. Rolling the fender on the LS is simple, the area to roll is only 8 inches long. You can do it with a wooden baseball bat if you are careful. Nice LS

There def mid to high 40's.

 

[G-RELL]

they only come in 38 or 45. so im sure there +45. any one with Eibachs know how much travel are in the shocks with passengers. i know the wont have the movement stocks do. but if its anything over 1" i dont think i"ll be able to.

Thanks guys for the comments. I'll get a side pic tomorrow.

I'll get a side pic tomorrow.

patiently waiting...I just looked at them again and i like em even more. they have the same look as my old mille ev-r's but my ev-rs were a split 5. very similar shape to the design

Good lookin' wheels.
Hard to tell, but is that a dent on your driver's side door or a relfection of something?

Ahhh.... cant get anything past you guys. i wish i could say its a reflection, but no, a dent im afraid. the infamous and elusive late night parking lot goblin got me...f%$#ing again. so anyone with a 1st gen, light parchment gold drivers door.... PM me. :shifty: no one.

My buddy does dent removal, said its pretty creased but he'd try. just havent made it over to him. it happened a while ago now that i think about it... damn

Where did you get those Turn Signals bulbs? thank you,

 

[RigsLS]

... you'll never find any LS "Turn Signals bulbs" anywhere,
they are discontinued and can only be had if they are custom built.

couldn't resist!

The chrome bulbs? They pop up on ebay from time to time.

And voilá.
