Hello all, new to the car scene and craze. A fortunate new owner of Type R. As of now all the reading and research have my head boiling over It was tough to come up with a decision on which car to buy with so many options, then once the decision became clear , to find one and to find one at reasonable price was hard. And finally the search for a good set of wheels.
Been reading all the other threads and so far the idea i am kind of coming up with or sticking to is,
so to make this huge wall of text into one sentence. So far the offset i found closest was 50, has any one found any option closer to 60. Or a combination of wheel diameter/ width / offset that kind of puts the center line close to OEM.
i read many owners who went with different offset vouch for no TqSteer at all etc. More than likley this is the case and i will end up getting the wheel with closest ratio possible. But just wanted to double check to see if some one found a magic bullet of smaller wheel diameter/ brembo clearance and close to oem offset
Been reading all the other threads and so far the idea i am kind of coming up with or sticking to is,
- 18 or 19 inch wheels to have a better side wall buffer for protection and ride quality.
- Keep width some where in 8.5 / 9 .5 ish to accommodate 245 to 265 region tires
- And the main concern was finding an offset as close to OEM as possible due to the torque steer thingy
