Classic wheelIs it just me or do black wheels look smaller in diameter than they really are ??Black wheels definately look smaller than they are. I ran black on a jeep before with the same effect. Needs more low, that will come after power mods. Edited 21/09/11 12:52 AM by RynoF6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that sometimes the fronts just don't look like they have enough dish compared to the back, I would like plenty of dish rear and enough front to match.

You don't want too much dish on the front or it looks silly plus the less you have on the front the more the back stands out. Just my opinion, could be wrong.

You know what I mean but? you have like a 2.5 to 3 in. rear dish and the fronts are nearly flush or only have an inch, I think it looks abit funny that's all. I know you can't get that much dish on the front but if you have 3 in. on the back then I think 2- 2 1/4 or even 2 1/2 in. dish on the front would look better.Not even sure if this is even possible on the new cars but old xa, xb e.t.c can do it, just looks better IMHO.

Then the width comes into play, +30 on 8.5" would have less dish than +30 on 9.5.Front wont usually have the same dish as rear because of the brake size. If you could fit the exact same wheel(size) to both then they will be same.Some wheels you can order a different disk size(curvature of spokes) to fit over various brake packages. Step lip vs reverse lip, reverse can also show more dish. Mine above are step lip, reverse swaps that bump to the back making the rim flat.Type of rim also determines if there is any dish at all Edited 21/09/11 10:33 AM by RynoF6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lightning g6e turbo Member 83 Member For: 13y 11m 20d Gender: Male Posted 21/09/11 10:43 AM Share Posted 21/09/11 10:43 AM Yeah I know that 3 in. isn't the max, it was just an example that's all. I would just like a wheel shop that would show me what they look like, they used to, they did it on my gemini years ago.Ryno I would like to stay with the 19's and go a 8.5f and 9.5r, but truth is I think im going to have to go 20's to get a nice rim,then I would probably like to go 8.5 or 9f (if possible without rolling guards)and a 10 or 10.5r.I don't want any srubbing issues and I am going to lower the car once the rims are on with xyz coilovers so I can get it to a good height ( I 'm not a fan of really low cars )any idea of what you think I might be able run in offset to get my desired look im after. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I came up with 19x8.5 +25 and 19x9.5 +30 after looking at others and measuring. Found out the wheel I was after was discontinued so ended up getting something else. Some good info here too Carefull measuring could get a 10 in a sedan FG with help from camber. No lip to roll on FG and heard the gaurds dont like being pulled.

Trying to find a nice wheel is not easy either, what wheels did you end up going with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
