20x10 with 275/35/20 tires installed today. I’ve had 3 sets of wheels in 2 years. These are the keepers. I couldn’t be happier.

Would these look good brushed?

I've seen them in person once but it was on a moving car and never got to see them standing still so I'm still not sure what they look like in person. But I want attention. I think brushed will give me that.

What do you guys think? I'd get it custom done.

2 sets of wheels arriving the same day, ordered 7 months apart. Which ones do you prefer?

Ordered my Advans 8 months ago, and was told with them on back order they wouldn't get here until November. My impulsiveness ordered a second set for the summer. Both showed up the same day, ordered nearly 7 months apart. Which would you mount?

Wheel fitment advice

Thumbnail

6 Upvotes

Hi there!

I need some help choosing the right wheel specs for my car. I have a 2012 Renault Clio 3 RS200 as seen in the attached photo.

This is my first car and I’ve never done any modifications as of yet. I’ve done some digging, but I need some more reassurance.

I’m currently running 225/45r17 tires on the oem wheels. I’m firstly planning to lower it with H&R springs (20mm front / 25mm rear), I’ve also dug through a few forums and facebook posts about fitment for this specific car and lots of people seem to run the oem wheels with 20mm spacers all around(same tire specs) and lowered with minimal issues.

However, I want to change to a bigger size wheel, they are currently 17x7.5j ET68(with 225/45r17 tires) wheels. I want to change to 18x8.5j ±ET55, here’s my reasoning:

Obviously first of all, they will look better with the 18’s.
Secondly, 215/40r18 tires are quite expensive where I live and very uncommon, hence why I want to go to 8.5j because a 225 tire would sit better on the rim and the sidewall won’t poke out as much allowing for potentially better fitment since the actual wheel barrel will stick out more than an 8j wheel but the tire will stay in the exact same spot if I’m not mistaken.
Lastly, I have been looking for MONTHS for a set of wheels that match the offset and silly bolt pattern of the clio, so I’ve come to the conclusion that I’d rather get some Alibaba “inspired by” wheels that are forged and most likely would be lighter than the oem cast aluminum wheels anyway for way less than an actual brand, however still more than a locally sourced wheel(Which I still can’t get anyways, because no one locally sells correct offset 5x108 wheels).

Considering all this, rubbing shouldn’t be an issue, however the 225/40r18 tire with the 8.5j wheel will be taller by around 4mm overall and I have only seen one example of a person running this tire (he had 18x8 Speedline Turini’s; ET60; See attached photo), and none had 8.5j wheels or had the correct offset I’m looking for.

If I really have to I don’t mind going for an 18x8j ET45 wheel with a 215/40r18 tire, since Ktec sells a set of Sparco Pro Corsa’s with those specs specifically for a Clio 3 RS, and I’m assuming they will fit with no rubbing as its being sold by a reputable brand, I would just have to save up for a couple of months more lol.

Any real world experience or advice would be greatly appreciated :)

Both my rear wheels are bent- dealer suggest fixing them- not sure how it happened, maybe backing beck onto my driveway as I normally park off of it. do I need to do so or does it affect my driving?

I'll need new tires soon so not sure if I need to do these first. Dealer said they could fix them for 150/ wheel?

Thanks for any help!

Gr86 wheel help

1 Upvotes

Hi, I recently bought a salvage gr86 10th anniversary edition and would like to rebuild for myself. 2 of the wheels are most likely damaged (i will receive the car in 3 months and update you guys) and since they are forged aluminum, i think it would be best to replace them. I really like the design of OEM 10th anniversary wheels. Is there anybody selling 2 wheels in the EU or would you guys suggest some other wheel with a similar design.

P.s. I’m also considering brown coloured wheels.

I feel like everyone runs the same 3 sets of wheels on these cars so I’m looking for something different. Screenshot from the seller (my battery stays at 3% and below). Might paint them matte gunmetal as the gloss black gets kind of lost.

Man why are lugnuts so expensive?

2 Upvotes

I’m gonna be picking up a set of Enkei NY03 +M’s for my 2020 Subaru WRX soon and I need some lugnuts that don’t practically cost as much as a wheel. I’ve been looking around and all I see are some cheap aluminum ones that feel like coke cans and ones that are really expensive. Does anyone have any good recommendations?


r/Wheels 21h ago

What y’all think about the new wheels? Stuck on what to do black or red caps? Should I change rivets to black to match or a red even? Or leave them chrome?

Alloy wheels: Summer tires 205/55/R16

Any suggestions for Toyota/Lexus OEM alloy wheels that will fit my '15 LE as a diredt bolt on with my tires or a similar (not low profile) tire?

Steel wheels: Winter tires 205/55/R16

Any product suggestions I can use to upfit the boring steel wheels?

If possible, I'm thinking gloss black paint, stainless wheel nuts, center cap and trim ring but not sure what to look for to ensure fitment.

Mock up of a 2014 es300h that I drive with frozen champagne wheels.

No longer a fan of the black/gunmetal etc as I enter my 40s and moved into comfort rides.

These pair well you think?

Fitment advice

Long story short: I broke a wheel and got those Riverside Trafficstar RTS (19x9+23 on 225/35R19 in the front) to replace my old wheels. Only way I could clear my bulky LS400 brakes was by adding 15mm spacers at the front. This makes the wheels peek out a little bit from the fenders. I got some rubbing when I drive over bumps, on tight turns and whenever the road is a little uneven. It appears to rub on the fender lip, and somewhere on the fender liner. I have no issues in the rear. Is there any way I can fix the rubbing (or at least mitigate it by 90%), or is the set up simply too aggressive for my chassis ?

My current ideas are to 1) roll the fenders; 2) adjust my coilovers height (~5mm higher); and 3) get a bit more negative camber (I am on factory arms so I can only do so much). Anything else I should try ? Changing wheels is not a possibility right now. Thank you!

Car is a 1993 Toyota Soarer.
