Well I was getting really bored with my old CSL's so I got some new footwear! :) They are 19x8.5 +35 front 19x9.5 +40 rear. I know the offsets are not perfect but I am rolled so I didnt mind... I will get some better pics up with a better camera and when I wash her...

No rubbage with only +40 on a 9.5" rim?
MoNsTeR
05-29-2009, 06:03 PM
Looks good,but i dont see how your not rubbing with those offsets..I have the same exact rims except in silver and there not richmans,Mine are discontinued and a tad more similar to the originals so they say :D..My specs are :
19 x 8.5 Fronts~245/35 - +38
19 x 9.5 Rears~275/30 - +45
And clearance is really tight..

Reminds me of my 2nd gen z28. I think your csl combo was much beautiful, these are, hmm, ok. Not bad, just ok. I'm kinda diggin the splitter... I bet driveways suck now.

TheNewKid
05-30-2009, 09:08 AM
Jeez, I came in waiting to be disappointed, but I think those are one of the best rims I have ever seen on a goat. For me, a lot of aftermarket rims seem a little "off" when it comes to our goats, but this setup looks PERFECT.

I keep looking at these pictures and I'm convinced this is the perfect offset for the best looking stance. I know it can be a rubbing nightmare, but it reminds me of the stance I see on my S14s.
blubrdls1
05-30-2009, 12:32 PM
Thanks guys! I just went to the gas station and topped off the tank and I am now getting a bit of rubbing... Just where the fender meets the rear bumper... And only on the driver side... I am going to just roll the fender up a bit more... :)
Scolmoo
05-30-2009, 01:44 PM
Do you mind if I ask where you got them? (what website, if it was online) I have had this idea running through my head for a little while now. I think they would look good on spice red.

Hey Richy glad you made it over here! Only thing is, the mod's here will want you to become a sponsor if you want to advertise your wheels. To be fair to the other sponsors... :)
Just a heads up! :rules:

That's exactly what I'd want. If that works out, I think I'll have to go ahead with this purchase. Need to find a buyer for the Beyern's first tho =P

Those rims are sick man!! I really wanted the Work VSXX's but I just didn't have the money at the time but I was going to get them in gold too. I think the gold looks awesome though, and I wish more people did it, its deffinatly different.

They used to... back in 1985!!!
I still have an unused set of silver and gold, 3 piece, Weds Bavaria's from the mid 80's in my garage. They are the HUGE for their time 16's... and no, that ain't the width! lol
These BBS RS's were the shit back in the day! lol

They are Work VsX Gold 18's and I think they are pretty expensive. 8's up front and 9's out back...

People always underestimate Gold wheels. Done right they look killer. also gold tone has to be right on as well.
nice!

Thanks Mav! You were my inspiration for getting gold wheels... Had to have em' after I saw them on your car. Just was looking for the right set that I could actually afford. Now I just need some of your CF parts on my wagon!
On a side note I think I finally got rid of all my rubbing. I had to grind down the fender where the quarter meets the bumper. And then file down where it was rolled... Kinda a pain... :)
