THIS

I'm gonna answer since I'm a nice guy like that. Jeff was on Eibach sportlines in that pic.

 

 

Yeah I know I dug up an old thread lol. Was looking around for pics and stumbled apon this thread.

On the other hand, thanks mike! That's perfect now I know how the fitment and stance would look.

 

Specs for wheels and tires?

 

17x7 +43 205/40/17

 

 

I'm thinking of buying some pretty mint rpf1's next week. Would I have trouble fitting 16x8 35et? I can get any size tire(Bridgestone). I'm on coilovers with front camber bolts, no fender work

 

What are you using springs or coilovers?

 

That's an 09.

Entirely different car, I don't understand why you keep quoting GE pictures as reference points.

 

The GE comes with 16" wheels stock. As such the tire heights are different, long story short, 17's are much easier to fit to a GE than a GD.

Also, suspension can cross over between the two, but not all that well. Spring rates are quite different.

As far as that silver GD above goes, it is on 15x7 +35 RPF1 with 195/50 S.Drive, lowered on Skunk2 springs. It did rub over bumps & at full lock, albeit not often or badly.

ALL of your questions could have been answered by searching for even a few minutes.

And you posted another GE that you said you wanted info on in your thread a few days back. Guess what, a Miata can take 13-17" 4x100 wheels too, doesn't mean the information is beneficial to you for a GD.

Reading & Searching = Best way to get info. Every GD related question has been answered at some point on this forum.

The GD brain trust on this forum is ever shrinking, myself and a couple others are the only people left with much knowledge of the platform, but the information is already out there.

 

Hey Mike,

Do they have any 18" Enkei wheels I can put on my GD? I don't mind cutting out the fender to make them 'fit'.

 

This is the exact stance I'm going for:

 

I think there was actually a member that may have tried 19's back in the day.

I'll try and find pics!

 

I'm pretty sure he was just trying to be sarcastic. I'm sure even 20's would fit, with the right fender modifications and or camber.

I decided to just get new tires, keep my OEM Alloy wheels. Not worth the trouble for a slightly better look.

 

I know that very well.

Doesn't mean we won't both laugh at whatever I find.

Such as this GE on 19's.

That "is" a bit extreme and comical. I guess I just don't get pushing the envelope too far. Especially when it interferes with functionality.

20's



24's

 

The reason I didn't get the RPF1's. Look is pretty close. However looking at the picture side by side. DAMN????????

Stock Look:


RPF1 Look (Future Maybe):

 

The wheels in the second picture are not RPF1.

And RPF1 & OEM are only similar in that they have a split spoke & are cast.

 

Super lightweight. I have some on my s2000.
