[djdanny5000]

hey guys my cousin is a dealer for rims through good roads and he can get me a great deal on these Nakayama Kodama in racing black (see attatched picture) but i cant find the offset on these rims can someone help me out and let me know if these will fit the P5. Oh and the pic shows 4 lug but they also come in 5 lug. Thats another thing I cant find the bolt pattern for this car

I can't find anything out on them. You can try calling them direct - http://www.nakayama.us/04_dealers/index.html If you are going 17 I would go for a +45 offset or higher.

 

[djdanny5000]

tried to call them and it says the number does not exist strange

 

[CTt3P5]

Hmmm. Can your cousin find anything out on them? I would think so if he is a dealer.

If they don't have that, don't even bother... Kind of wierd they don't have 5x114.3 or are you talking about the offset?

well i emailed there help center thingy anyways its a +42 offset so according to the fitment guide here on the forums a 205/40/17 will barely make it but will make it without rubbing correct? also another question now is will i be able to lower the car with the eibach pro kit with that offset and rim size?

i had a 205/40/17 tire on mine. it rubbed only when i went kind of quick on speed humps.

 

[djdanny5000]

damn so i wonder if lowering it would cause it to rub maybe ill just have to roll my fenders in the future??? (first)

i think you should be good. unless you haul "bigger" people in the back. on stock tires it still rubs if i have my dad and mom back there. they were back there only once but it rubbed like a b****. and my parents arnt skinny people. once i had like 7 people i my car, car rubbed if i turned the wheel slightly,lol, my skinny ass cousin was crammed in the hatch. it was just down the road so it wasnt that bad, oh and the smell of burning rubber ticked me off.

 

[djdanny5000]

Damn well i'm usually the only one in the car most of the time. Im not the skinniest person but not the fattest either so i guess i should be alright i guess ill just have to tell the big people to walk lol thanks for the help guys

GL and post pics if you get them. Not sure if you are dead set on black and 5 spoke but did you see this deal?

Damn good price on 18's! Don't know if you would need to roll the fenders considering the offset.

 

[djdanny5000]

Well i got the rims but need tires so there not on the car i'll post pics of them in the box and maybe someone can do a photochop of them on a red p5. anyways im looking for a sticky tire that is cheap too. I want something i can take corners pretty quick with. i'll take pics again once i get them on the car

They look bit like Arospeed (RS5 ?) shame Arospeed ones come with wrong offset.

 

[djdanny5000]

those look like they'd be better suited on a domestic.
