Wheels for drifting

DriftKr6l · 03-19-2013, 03:15 PM

I'd like to go 17", but with the sport package big brakes, I don't think any will fit, so I think I need to do 18"?

I want to go as narrow as possible for the front so that I don't rub at full lock (increased lock by modifying factory stops and Tein inner rods) but I want a flush look, so I'm wondering what offset to go with.

Rear, Id like to fit 235/35/18 tires, also be flush.

Any suggestions, sample pics, etc would be appreciated.

Cheers

Enkei RPF-1's 18's.

^ a good choice. you'll definitely want a high strength, forged monoblock wheel. I'm sure you'd find two piece or three piece wheels that would work, but that's just more chance of something breaking.
