Seeking wheel advice from someone who KNOWS part II...

if you went with the +43mm you wouldn't need the coilovers to fit. :)

currently we're running the Tamago rear hubspacers too, they weren't installed in that picture though.

I'd like to see a pic with the spacers installed. I put custom spacers on my '81 Turbo Volvo and it made a lot of difference in the look. Filled up the fender wheel and got the track on track. heh... Oh, and I forgot to ask: what wheels are those?

I'll be going with the +43s and a mild spring/shock combo. I need to look into Tokiko to see what's up. I'll probably couple them with tanabes. Although, if I decide to go all out, its coil overs all the way with suspension bars to boot. Dunno yet though.

As far as the argument goes, I believe in good sidewall to rim ratios for the street and sane driving - wheel material notwithstanding. I do like forged wheels though. They make a nice noise when you tap 'em with a hammer.

they are Volk Racing RE30s.

Once we get the car back up and running I'll snap a few fresh pics.

My favorite post from that other thread:

"i think this guy should change his thread title to "seeking advice from people who will agree with me"

because you're talking right now to two people who KNOW"
