FD Rims on P5

[Wagonbacker9]

The 225/50s with the rims are the same height as my MS6 rims with 225/40s...lol

and are nearly equal to the MSP stock size as well.

 

[Matt V]

So 225/45's seem to be the preferred size tire for these when put on the P5?

 

[Wagonbacker9]

for a non-msp, I think I'd go with a 45 profile, yeah.

 

[Matt V]

I was considering going with those local wheels I showed you, however I have no idea how I would go about repairing cracked wheels.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

if they're cracked more than once across the set... I'd say no.

 

[Matt V]

One doesn't hold air so if that's an indicator...

I'm gonna see how much he wants for them and if I can get some close up pics of the insides of each wheel.

So I think we are going to need 5mm spacers in the front

edit: for tein coilovers. It's touching the bracket that bolts on to the hub

 

[Matt V]

What kind of spacers are you using? I was told the plate type can crack if applied under too much pressure.

 

[HKPRO5]

Yea I have the plate type. What other types are there?

 

[Wagonbacker9]

the kind like turfburn used to make.. machined out of solid piece of billet alloy? lol I still want a set of them...

 

[HKPRO5]

All we have here is the plate type in hawaii lol

 

[Matt V]

I still need to find a set of wheels.

yeah I have the 3mm on with my set from NSNmotorsport. (turfburn).

 

[Wagonbacker9]

yeah I have the 3mm on with my set from NSNmotorsport. (turfburn).

hits weren't 3mm, they were 1.4", or 6.35mm

 

[MakeMeGoFast]

At one point he offered 3mm but I guess he no longer does. Just saying cause I ordered them off the NSN site.

 

[Wagonbacker9]

hmm I thought all his were 1/4"... I think he's all but shut down at this point.

 

[MakeMeGoFast]

forgot to mention this was back in 07'.....lol


I really wish there were other colors that looked good with Sand Mica other then black and silver

 

[Matt V]

Any particular brand of spacers that are better than others? I imagine 1-5mm spacers must all pretty much be the same.

EDIT: Anyone know what our hub bore is?

I think this would work:
