even cheaper!

As you indicate, note that the listings are for 1 wheel only, not a set.

If they have more than 1 wheel available, get ET42's for up front and ET33's for the rear.

Tamago · 06-03-2009, 09:21 PM

i'm sure they have more than 1 available. a quick call to discounttire would clear this up

no point in losing the ability to rotate your wheels.

hub spacers give you the same result. :)

Everyone runs FN01R-Cs. I like the Forged version of these wheels. The buddy club P1 wheels are not bad too. The weights seem to be pretty damn low.

Tamago · 06-04-2009, 06:39 PM

in the grand scheme, nothing's lighter (for the money) than an RPF1 though.

Staggered offsets are a common fitment in Japan... and I am not a fan of tyre rotation.

as long as you run a 13mm spacer in the rear, i agree with this line of thinking

I am aware of their popularity in Japan, with these cars it makes sense.

Although, how can you not like tire rotation? I can understand from an autox/grip standpoint of running a wider front wheel/tire combo.

for the street unless you like throwing away $$ tire rotation is a great thing, that and the availability of Hub Spacers for the back there's no point in running a staggered offset on a street car. IMHO

i like staggered fitments.Although it is useless, fatter wheels look awsome in back. Anyone running a staggered setup on a yaris yet?

cali yaris · 08-09-2009, 04:18 PM

I think Whooppeee is running the Nilo's I sold him, they are 16x7 front 16x8 rear.

etheliters · 08-17-2009, 03:43 AM

Tamago · 09-28-2009, 01:20 PM
