New Shoes: Rota SVN 18x9
I ordered a set of Rota SVN 18x9 30 offset wheels mounted on Falken FK452 255/35/18 tires about 2.5 weeks ago from www.wheeldude.com. They arrived last Thursday (08/06/2009). Everything came in 4 big boxes.
I thought I didn't receive my hub rings, but apparently the set of wheels I received have the stock 67.1mm hub bore since I put on the wheels on and the inner hub slid snug over the stock hub ring. The balancing of the wheels was done well using sticky weights. There is no vibration at any speed I have driven (50-100mph).
I am also using their wheeltek lug nuts (gloss black) and they are quite nice for the discounted price Dan @ wheeldude gave me. The wheeltek lug socket is also a nice solid piece and doesn't feel cheap like alot of the sockets that come with lug sets.
I originally wanted the DPT wheels, but Dan ran out! I ended up choosing the SVN's and I am very happy with everything. I just wish Dan stocked more of these wheels!
The car is kinda dirty in the pics as I didn't have time to wash it, later I will post better pics.
