falken hanabi
 
thinking of going with the falken hanabi wheels. 17x7.5 with a +32 offset. just wanting to get some opinions on this set-up. it will be going on my s13 hatch. ive opted to keep the 4 lug set-up. i have q45 brakes up front stock rears. i could re-drill my r33 skyline rear brakes and put them on, but i think it would be overkill versus the q45 fronts. anyway, i dont want to do 5 lug due to added cost and my last s14 rb25 had five lug. on that car i kept wanting to get expenzsive wheels since i had more choice. this way i have fewer chioces, therefore i stay in budget.

ahhhh u want 17x9 with a 20s offset. if ur gunna spend that much decent sizes.

Yeah just get the 17x9 20+ and be done with it its like $500 for 4 not including tires.

bottombunk 08-29-2005 01:12 PM

cool. i didnt see 17x9+20. ill just call em and ask. by the way edge racing, are they any good. or do you know of a better place to go through

bottombunk 08-29-2005 01:15 PM

they got em for 185. wheel. the 120 for the 7.5 obviously you have found em for a better price. let me know where please

yea ive always liked the , i think its integra
wheel and this looks similar. the 9s are too pricey with tires so i might go 9s in the rear

Fast1One 08-29-2005 04:05 PM

Go 9 all around...you can stretch 215 on nine inch if your worried about tire prices...if you dont have the money...SAVE. You wont regret it in the long run...

bottombunk 08-29-2005 04:46 PM

i dont do stretched tires. i hate the look and wouldnt want to get a pinch flat. i might do 9s all around its a debate for me.
i just have soo much in this car now. im ready to be done. you know when you get this close on any project you start thinking of ways to just get done. or at least i do.

I have bought 3 sets of wheels from Edgeracing.com for the VWs I have owned and I have had no issues with them. Very good shop and great people to deal with.

bottombunk 09-07-2005 04:51 PM

thanks for the info. i already ordered a set of 17x9+20 hanabi

sirt8669 09-07-2005 05:05 PM

What color did you get? I am considering the Bronze for my white coupe.

bottombunk 09-07-2005 05:29 PM

bottombunk 09-07-2005 05:30 PM

silviaks2nr 09-07-2005 06:10 PM

i doubt u will have to pull, but roll is def a good chance. u wont regret... plus u can rotate tires now too
