Yes, lowered on TRD's.

If you're looking for mesh style wheels, try to get some BBS RS with a lower offset and just have them refinished. I was going to refinish some 17s, but the final cost would've been way over my budget. However, if you want 16s, you can buy them for around $700 and spend another $300 to have them totally refinished. If you want to add bigger lips to them, then that's another story....

These guys are local to me... ask for Daniel at Memoryfab.com...

Here's a pretty set they just got with a really nice offset that should work...

5Hx114.3 @ 16x8 +24, Tires 205/45 includes

BIGBENJDM77 · 03-01-2010, 10:05 PM

kool thx man how long you been running them and have you had any problems???? like with wheel bearings or axle issues???

im stuck im trying to decide between some 512s 16x8s n stock tires or a set of 18s 18x9 in the front 18x10.5 on the rear the off sets great on the 18s id have way more poking out with the 16s then 18s i just love the cambered jdm look but with the 18s is refreshing different cause there mustang rims to start with...... pls yet me know yalls thoughts

azztinthebox · 03-02-2010, 04:26 PM

I have had 0 problems out of my wheels and no wheel bearing problems, I have done everything from topping the car out to autocrossing with them and still no issues they have been on the car now for almost 30,000 miles. I am also running 195/45 tires on df210 springs the stock tires did not last but 14k miles on these tires. If you are planning on running the stock tires with df210 springs with people in the back it will rub.
