New Rims - Enkei RPM2

[ZoomThis]

Well, I picked them up today. WOW!!!! I cannot believe I waited this long to buy rims for my car. Next time, someone shoot me. But I wanted to make sure I could afford the ones I really want with some decent performance tires too.(p5blue)

The hardest part now is waiting for the snow to melt and go away!(sun)

Don't worry, I will bring for the next meet.....even if they have to sit on the back seat(rofl2)

215/40/17x7?

They will look sexy on your car no doubt.

Be sure to post up how they fit. I have 205/40/17 and will most likely be moving to 215 next time...

 

[ZoomThis]

Yes, they are Falken 451 215/40 on 17" X 7.0

When I get them on my car, I will make sure I take pictures.

Ooh Falken tires .. nice!

 

[ZoomThis]

I current have 205s on my car without any problems. The place I bought them (Big Bear Tire) did some measuring to make sure there shouldn't be any rubbing.

They said if I wanted to go with 17X7.5" rims, I would have to make the offset was perfect for it to fit.

Yes, Falkens! Thought about going with Yokohomas or Toyos, the Falkens looked pretty tight.

Yes very nice wheels. Only really cool people have those wheels.

nice. i know what you mean about how hard it is having to wait to put them on. its ok though since i still need to buy tires.

 

[Badger Biker]

Those are so sexy.

Yeah, I have tires too.....now I just sleep next to them and dream about warm sunny days(hmm)

 

[ChiMSP]

congratulations on the new quadruplets.

 

[lasermp5]

good god I love those rims. Always have. If I knew at the time that they would have fit the P5, I probably would have them now. However, when I bought my rims, I was under the impression for some reason that they didn't have a wheel that fit the P5 (uhm) Oh well... very sexy! Can't wait for pics...

 

[ZoomThis]

This are only 17X7.0. According the tire shop I went to, they are not sure of a 7.5 rim of Enkei that will fit the P5.

 

[JOS3]

whats the offset and what size are your tires?

 

[ZoomThis]

Tires are 215/40/17....the offset is 45.

 

[Protege52003]

they look nice....get some pics up when they are on the car!

 

[JOS3]

lucky bastard. you got to put 215mm tires. i can only put 205 becasue i only have a 42mm offset on my wheels

 

[ZoomThis]

I am not lucky....just spent a lot of time figuring out what I want. But I still have to wait to see them on the car

 

[JOS3]

ive been debating which tires to get for the last 2 months.
