Wheels, What do you think about these?

http://www.autoimaging.com/shop/index.php?shop=1&cart=167145&cat=74&

Buddy Club P1 Racing QF 17x9 5x114.3 +28mm or +35mm offset 14.44 - 14.48lbs each. In gunmetal.

Would the +28 work good all the way around? Or should I just go +35mm all around.... I dont plan on full coilovers for a long time.

Either one will work fine... the 28's will be more flush, but out of personal taste, I like the Racing II.

I also like the Racing II alot..... But I will need to mail them to see if they are just as light weight.

I love those! there are pics of an s13 coupe with 16 inch P1 racing rims on it in the may 2002 issue of SCC...
I really like them.

i can tell you right now
1) they are expensive (dont forget shipping costs from japan and to your home-but email autoimaging for details)

2) go +28 for SUPER FLUSH (will require some negative camber, probably er...-2 degrees?

R33 GTR are 17x9 +30

if you dont want camber, go +38
more sunken in but not a whole lot

watch your tire sizes!

The QF is a MUCH more expensive wheel, I believe it is forged. Wheels, tires and shipping, you're probably looking at about $2500.

drifting...yeah i just replied


ryan hagen: i highly suggest calling them, they have always been helpful to me the few times i spoke with them! if you get a price quote, be sure to get the guy u talked w/ (his name) and note it with the time and date, incase the price changes!

You should PM Tnord. He has the exact same rims except they are Kosei(just rebadged). If you don't mind getting white ones Kosei sells them for much less. Also, I think it would be possible to just sandblast the white of and get it powder-coated another color if you want. Just call up tirerack.com and ask if that is a good alternative. Their toll-free # is 1-888-981-3957. My mag says that their hours are M-F 8-8 and Sat 9-4.

he's talking about the 2nd ones on the page...the QFs. Kosei does not have a copy of those.
