Looking for New Rims
 
I'm thinking about replacing my TE37SLs with something a little less aggressive so I can fit a proper size tire and maybe a little less camber. I'm wanting to stay with an 18" rim. I'm rolled up front with a StopTech ST-40 BBK, and have trimmed flush ASM overfenders in the rear.

Is there anywhere in the GTA that has several sizes of rims in stock? I'm thinking I want to stay with Volks (concave TEs, or CE28s), but I wouldn't be opposed to Advans or Gram Lights though. Not sure who is a dealer and I'm not very confident in determining which sizes I should be going with so I would like the ability to do some test fitting.

Any help is appreciated, thanks!

On the other hand if anyone has downforce or ASM front fenders I could probably reconsider...

Alright, after some thinking I think this makes the most sense...

Sell my (2) 18x10.5+22
Buy (2) 18x10+40 to make my setup square
Buy either 265 or 275 tires
Buy downforce front fenders

Lot more money than I would like to spend but gives me the peace of mind for years to come

You're a very smart man. Those wheels suit the car so perfectly, a square setup with chunky flush fitment would look so good and functional.

Ya man keep the TE37's!
Do the square setup.

can i have dibs on the two? LOL

Yeah I love the SLs too much to get rid of them. It's going to be an expensive venture so I might have to chip away at it this year and then get it ready for next year with that setup unless the CAD magically goes back to par or find stuff locally.

Aphan, you can definitely have the (2) 18x10.5+22s. Are you wider? They definitely won't fit on stock fenders.

I'm on circuit garage so it still might not be enough . I'm looking for wheels within the next month though so I'm not sure when you'd wanna sell

If I could find (2) 18x10+40 or (2) 18x9.5+40 in that time frame I would definitely be down

It will be enough, d1000rr is running 18x10.5 et 35 on 265 on asm flares so +22 on CG flares will be fine

d1000rr 02-24-2016 06:17 AM

^^^ The circuit garage rear fenders are 75mm wider... so Jordan's rear wheel still won't be enough lol.

aphan if you're gonna run Jordan's wheels, you'll need a 20-25mm rear spacer (depending on tire size).
