New Rims

I am looking at getting new rims and like the look and price of Victor Equipment. The ones I prefer are the Le Mans. any comments on these rims? I see that they do not have the 18 X 8.5 but only the 18 X 8. Will the 225 /40-18 tires fit on this rim? Thanks.

I also like them....anyone have weights on them and experience? 8" and 11" ....

THANKS!


I lean to the blacks...but am unsure. The other model looks a lot easier to clean. I hate cleaning mesh wheels....

Who build your 4G64? What turbo you running on it? What car is it in?

Well spotted maclaren55. It is in a 2G FWD Eclipse. It has a Slow Boy Racing 4G64T Short Block with Manley Rod and Wiseco Pistons. The Head is a Stage 5 head with oversize valves, HKS272 / 272 Camshafts, Magnus Intake, GT35R Turbo, Big GReddy FMIC, TRE Tranny, Quaife LSD plus many more. It is a street / full weight drag car running 580FWHP. Traction problems but that half the fun. Also have an EVO 9MR with GT30 and Hafe Manifold plus many more but running about 390AWHP. As I live in the Philippines, the Porsche 911TT is probal=bly the only supercar that is strretable hear due to traffice, bad roads and bad drivers.

Any help on the Rims?
