Bunch of copy cats, well I'm not telling you what wheels I'm using but the skyline r32 forged rims are a nice choice.

Not copying if we didn't know you'd done it ;-)

We didn't know right? :?

I wanna know what wheels you're running now! :lol: At least the width and offset anyway :P

16x8 et 30 on the rear and 16x8 et 40 front

I've also got some 16x9 et 50 to try on the rear!

I'm not sure if you knew or not tbh, I'm waiting to get my suspension arms back from powder coating before I can fit it all and show you ;-)

et50 is massive for the rears on a 9" rim. May need some hubcentric spacers to kick those back out ;-)
