Yeah, I know. The gap is pretty big in the front, but I'm trying to work on it. It's really 165/45/15 and I don't mind the odometer being thrown off.

I may decide to get rid of the stretched look because it's so hard to find the size I really wanted, which is 165/55/15. I'll probably get a 195/50/15 soon, just a slight stretch on the rears.

I agree about the 17s, but I have yet to find rims that I like in 17s or even 16s. I really wanted some Advan SA3A's and I may even consider getting them, but the dimensions are weak as hell. 16x7 +30something sucks cause I can't find the 16x8s.

I got your point there. It's hard to find some nice 17'' wide wheels with low offset for 4x114.3 bolt pattern that aren't some knock-off. Have you tried looking on Vrwheels.com?

Yeah, it's just shipping to Hawaii sucks so much! First, it's expensive, but half the time no one even wants to ship it.

I hope to figure this out by the end of the month though. I might end up having to sell these wheels and then pick up something else.

D3stro: Thanks for reminding me of VRWheels. I may have found a set I want to replace my current one. Not as rare as my current ones, but I've always loved them and the fitment will be much better.

501: I thought I could live with the wheel gap, but I can't. When I drive, I need to lift it up so it looks like a lowrider style kind of (big car, little wheels.) It just doesn't match like it would on a nice G-body Regal or LS Monte. I just removed my mud guards. I like the look of it without it for now, but I may put it back on my next set of wheels.

Thanks again D3stro for suggesting VRWheels. I was able to find my current set there. Working on the stance now as well as the interior.

Also going a more VIP styled route like Liquid_G's Cube.

I'd love to take a few more, but sadly, less than a week after mounting the tires, I ran over something I think and it popped. So rims are now stock again till I get a day off to pick up another tire.

A current picture of how my Cube is nowadays. I haven't visited this board very often lately, but this is what I've been working on. I'll try to get some better pictures soon.

I'll get some better pics soon, I have a photo shoot planned for this week.

They actually did come off a VW, a Golf to be exact. There are no adapters or spacers! I know this wheel design was made by several different wheel companies in the past with slight variations, but I got the one from Impul. They're Impul Silhouettes and being that they're Impul and the past they share with Nissan, it's a dual lug pattern of 4x114.3 and 5x114.3.

Finally got some slightly better pictures up of my car. At the moment, no further plans of modifying it. I like the state and look that it is in now, plus it's about time I take care of some other things.

Though maybe a spacer in the front to bring it out a little will be added soon.

Those are ALL good-looking wheels, but that copper set takes the cake.

Wish the roads around here were more 'coilover friendly'

The most I'm brave enough to do is some Eibachs
