Rota Slipstreams are 13.5 lbs...

That's my fallback, as I've said and 489 shipped for brand new rims ftmfw.

I do NOT want to run 40mm. There are many people on here that have rubbed and with the amount of crap that I carry in my car I do NOT want to chance it.

If you guys don't want to help, that's fine.

I am not in it for the "e-props" so I'll just lay low and quit asking for help.

Thanks anyways.

i was just stating my opinion. i dont care what you buy and i dont mind helping out at all.


i figured you wanted that offset since you probably carry stuff in your car and were worried about rubbing issues which is understandable

Because I'm still weighing the options...it's still 3mm off and damn, if I'm gonna do that, might as well get 40s and get something that I really like...there's tons of 40s.

I'm thinking about it though.

3mm = 0.118110236in

not that much of a difference. also when you put stuff in your car and it gets lower due to weight, the wheels naturally camber in giving you more clearance
