18x8 with the same offset is possible. Just change tire size. I prefer more flush looking wheels/tires like the Red 2G with the 8.5" pic above. Just have to do you're calculations. The 17s work for me b/c they are usually cheaper to buy grippier tires for than 18s. Those tires you see in my pic are going to be "close to bald and unsafe" in a week when I'm done with them.

I won't go above 18s b/c of preference and I just personally think they are more 'car-show' style, but everyones different. You make it drive good and look good, than it's fine.

I didn't really roll the rears too much b/c my rears are neg. camber and they clear.

Rims and tires make the car (for looks), especially the tires if you care about grip.
 
it is not my car but same wheels what i do have :D
just blew my 2 tires and waiting on set of 225/45/17 Nitto's Neo Gen :D

Are these any different than the trak lites that they have on their website?

No, the pic I posted is of the black one. They have 2 other colors available, gun metal and Gun metal machined lip. See pics below.

15 x 6.5" is 10 lbs
17 x 7" is 14 lbs
17 x 7.5" is 14.5 lbs

Anyone got a pic of SSR Professors on a 2G? I want to see if it looks as good as I think it would.

18x8" SSR SP1 Professors. One of my few favorite 2Gs, hands down. He's on this board, forget his username. Silly sick.
 
I really love the Racing hart c5's.

I have the Tenzo R RS-5's I fell in love with.

I like those Volk Racing GT-C's, Im going to be getting a set when I get an awd talon. Right now I have the stock 1g swirrle rims on my current talon, got them referbished and they look real nice with a chrome lip.

18x7.5 5zigen FNO1RCs in titanium bronze with 43 offset with 225/40/18 Pirelli Pzero Neros...
 
why do some of you guys run 7"/7.5" wide? Clearance? Package tire deal? Used?

A lot of that would be the reason.

Also, some cheaper wheel manufacturers only make 18" wheels in the 7.5" or 8.5" width. Which sucks. Especially if you're looking for 8" (like I was, but had to settle for 17x8") :notgood:

Wow, then there is another 2G in that exact color with NO bumper, in black rims and a 2.4L that was at the shootout.

Anyway, those rims on a 1G are now here on a 2G. I did a search in the gallery and found them. I don't know whose car it is but looks nice on 1Gs or 2Gs.


That is DSMHeleX's car, looks alot diff now, on 19s i beleive pretty clean car..
 
I actually dont remember what kind of rims these are 18 inch wheels wrapped in Nitto 555 235/40Z tires. The rims are more of a gunmetal color which complimented well with the black paint job. Let me know what you think.

this is what i just put an order in for......gram lights


Good for you. Quality piece of JDM forge-ness. What size/specs? What tires you getting? Take pictures when it's on. Just make sure their is no wheel gap.

I know it's mostly 2Gs, but this pic of this 1G is mandatory.

T57-RC= cast, the 57F-Pro is the forged version.

BTW, SAKONE, are those Volk GTP's on your car?
