Anyone W/ Tire Hookups?

[Tanya]

I need new ones BADLY, and the douche canoe tire makers of America have told the 14" wheel population to go screw themselves.

I am looking for 225/60/14s. The only manufacturer of these I can find online right now are BFG Radial T/As.... they are $84 a piece and fucking S rated. I would much rather have something that doesn't suck as much for that kind of price.

The last tires I bought in Naples were Dayton Daytona SRs a few years ago, they are also S rated but were only $60ish a piece and they gripped pretty nice. Only issue I had with them is that the sidewalls got damaged real easily. Replaced two tires within a few months due to sidewall bubbling.


If anyone has any suggestions, or know where I can get some old school mesh wheels for cheap instead, lmk. I gotta do something soon, can't take a corner in the rain without sliding..

[GRNDHOG]

and I need some Nitto NeoGens for my wife's Scion.

anyone here a Nitto dealer?

[Jeffie ON JUICE]

Yes I will let u know later what I can do

[POSmiata]

can't take a corner in the rain without sliding..

Wheres the fun in taking a corner without sliding?!? j/k sometimes that shit happens to me in the ranger. Scared the FACK out of myself a few times tooo.

[Tanya]

It's fun when I'm doing it on purpose, when there's no traffic around. It's NOT fun when I dont want it to happen and when these POS tires flex under themselves and it's not a smooth slide but a scary one where I wait to see if the tire explodes.

Jeffie replied on here, or Hemi over on NR. He manages the new tire kingdom in PG.

are you 4 or 5 lug? i am 99% sure your 4 but if you are 5 i have a set of FC bbs wheels.

[Tanya]

4 lug

I need 4 x 114.3 wheels, around 0 offset. Same kind that fits AE86s and S13s.

[Devil Man]

i has no 4 lug... :(

tell him 300 and your a girl and you should be able to scoop them up

[Tanya]

FUCK those are clean. I talked to someone a couple weeks ago on that forum for Enkei meshies like those, he wanted $350 and showed me a picture of ONE wheel that was all bent and fucked up... fail.

thats more then a fair offer. they are only 7" wide so really they arent worth much more then that. if you could get something wider great but w/e.

and like i told him.. he doesnt take that offer he is gay.. um do i get newds for finders fee? lol

[Tanya]

LOL I just wonder what a 240 would even LOOK like with Supra wheels, I don't think I've ever seen them on one.

I doubt my offer will be taken seriously though rofl:

[Devil Man]

it would look fine... but he doesnt really need your wheels.. he said eailer that he already got some wheels and just needed to sell his off. but hey my finders fee's are real!!! pay up... lol

your 300 is more then fair for them.

[Tanya]

Werd.

Id give him $150 now and $150 next week in person and when Ive confirmed they actually fit. He doesnt even have a bolt pattern or offset listed FAIL.

[Devil Man]

sigh... your killing me here woman.

as you can see they are bolted to the 240... 240's are 4X114

the offset he didnt post.. but judging by the pics i would say those are in the 0-10+ range.. more then likely 0 though.

*facepalm* I know they will BOLT on, I'm not retarded. The offset is what worries me. I had enkei 15x7 before with a +0 offset. If these arent equal to that or a slightly negative number, they will look ridiculous on my car.

besides, its not like the guy is actually responding. he was online at 4pm and didnt have anything to say. most likely a lost cause.

[Devil Man]

huh well i wasnt sure how up to par your brain was. It seems you are up to par.. lol.

well he just bumped his thread so either you got a PM.. or he is gay.

also, jose on here is selling some gangster offset shit. PM him and ask him

http://www.sfldrifters.com/forums/showthread.php?t=51662

thread here his name is the same here but i dont know where to send you on it though.

[Tanya]

dude is fucking retarded, he did not PM me. He apparently likes bumping his thread and not replying to anyone's fucking questions. God this infuriates me bc I WANT those wheels. They shouldn't be owned by people who lack 90% of their brain cells.
Ugh!!!

The SSR wheels look nice but they're +13 offset, would most likely be too tucked in for my car :(

[Boomhower]

i could check with my friends shop up here but i dont think you wanna drive to PC to get them on

[Devil Man]

huh.... well then the only other cheap thing i can tell you is to go xxr wheels

you just gotta find the 0 offset ones of these and your car would look pretty good.

here is a 0 offset set of wheels, but i think the gold would look better on your black car. i would just ask the seller.

and when you order those they have a tire package. find out how much it is. that will be your cheapest new route

[Tanya]

I refuse to put dildo spoke wheels on my car. They look horrible.


And I am cool with driving to PC, it's not all that far considering I already drove 4,000 miles across the country with these tires.

[Hawk]

i think that the black ones would look awesome on the supra. plus they are of the correct style for your year of car.

[Tanya]

WAT.


No. The round spokes, IMO, do NOT look good on a 2nd gen Supra. The body is FAR too angular for the roundness. Those kind of wheels look good on more rounded cars, like the 280Zs, they have curves, and not sharp angles.


At any rate, I'm kinda talking to the guy with the white meshies, he wants $450, which seems decent, but IM trying to figure out a downpayment and how to not get myself fucked in this situation.

[Devil Man]

450? tell him to suck your dick for that price... i wouldnt pay a cent more then 400 for those and thats kinda expensive imo

[Tanya]

I actually asked peeps on my supra forum and because they're in mint shape they ARE easily worth $500+++... however, this guy needs to give me a confirmation of the damn offset, as I'm being told they look to be +20, which I don't see, but Im stupid with that shit anyway



oh and p.s. I don't have a dick to tell him to suck :p

[Devil Man]

i cant conferm nor deny if you do without pics.. lol.


meh i guess they just dont seem wide enough to justify more then 400 in my eyes. yea he seems like a shitty person to deal with. but if you can score some wheels yay!

[LUMBER BLACK]

Go talk to Javier or JT at BEST WHEEL in Le High. He gives some good cheap prices!

[Tanya]

^For what? tires or wheels?


both are VERY hard to find for my car. you have to understand my car isnt a common Honda, fitment is a big issue along with the 4 lug pattern

[LUMBER BLACK]

umm I am positive he will be able to find you soe wheels and tires. Oh and I know more about your car than I would a Honda just trying to help you out.

I wasn't trying to be insulting, but 9 out of 10 people don't know a damn thing about my car except that it's old and should probably be put down. rofl:

[LUMBER BLACK]

hell na I didn't take it that way. You better not take that car to the slaughter house!

[Tanya]

No, I'll go bald pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to get wheels/tires before I ever consider selling my car (sure as fuck wouldnt get scrapped)
