Need Help With New Alloys

[Mr Man]

Hi ppl, im new to all this but was wondering whether u could help me!

i curerntly have standard 17 rims with 215/45/17 up front

and 245/40/17 at rear and it is lowered 30mm

i want new 17's thinking of momo gt2 but they are in 17 by 7.5 (buying of mate) will this be a problem with rubbing with the tyres i got at the moment?

or supr t's . can u tell me the correct offset and widest i can go with my lowering and tyres?

thanks for all your help!

(anyone got any pics? what type of alloys look tend to look good on is200)

super T's look very good.

best bet is to look at pictures in the gallery for decent wheels

and if you look in the wheels and tyres forum ou will get the fittment sizes no problem

17's will defo fit , but to be honest go for 18's well worth the extra..and it wont be much

[Mr Man]

call me stupid but where is the wheels and tyres forum??

[Mr Man]

Does anyone know how low andyharts car is?

[Monster-Mat]

[Fidgits]

Me, I'd go for the Momo...

Just so you can show off the calipers your going to do..... (trust me ;) )

[Mr Man]

haha, with himj out of the car please,

[Monster-Mat]

he has the TTE coilovers, i think its lowered by about 45mm

the superT's will suit the is2 better than the momo's, which in my opinion look to fussy

Super T's............ ;)

Oi Cheeky

At the moment, like Mat says, it is about 45 - 50mm lower than standard. If you look at this pic from the Brooklands meet, it was about 65-70mm lower (and it still had about 20mm adjustment on the coilovers) but it kept catching on certain speed humps so I had to raise it a bit (it also started wearing the rear tyres on the inside edge because of the camber angle)

I would go for the super T's in 18" and go for the touring car look B)

[GRiM]

Super T's are much lighter too!!

e.g.

Standard 17x7 Lexus cast wheels are 22lbs

MOMO GT2 17x8 cast wheels are 26lbs

Super T's 17x8 cast wheels are 23.3lbs

[Mr Man]

okie,

thanks for all your hellp!

i'll tell u and show u pics once ive made a decison as im still in 2 minds but pushing towards super t's at the mo
