We better see some pics of them mounted up!!!

 

[GClark]

I'll hopefully get them mounted tomorrow!

Had some paint laying around, so I painted my wheels wrb.

 

[i-wagon]

I look like I'm trying to impersonate you but with less ground clearence.

 

[GClark]

Added a roof basket, now I just need more stickers, spare tire, and lights.

 

[flat4awd]

Those wheels came out decent, waiting on pics of them mounted.

 

[Nate]

WRB wheels again? We should have shot those cans with the AR.

 

[SUBARUDE]

where did you get the basket

Ya they came out alright, all the paint will get chipped off after the first day of dirt, so I'll be repainting them a more "normal" color.

Ha you wish kid. That AR couldn't shoot itself out of a wet paper bag.

where did you get the basket

Some lame guy with a white forester, who bought it from another lame guy with a few foresters.

 

[IBratmanI]

^Haha. Looks good. Not big on the white hub caps though. Looking forward to pics with the gravels mountd

 

[GClark]

Thanks! White hub caps are the ish, you wish you had some. I'm looking for some lower offset (40-50ish) 16's if anyone has some leads.

 

[IBratmanI]

Haha, you're right I do. Yeah I noticed your offset was a little off. They just stick out far enough!!

 

[i-wagon]

They were a lot more recessed on my fozzy

 

[GClark]

For my next setup I'd like a lower offset 16(maybe wider too) with some A/T tires. For a real meaty look.

 

[GClark]

Maybe like this

or this

http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=1225

There the only 16's I can find that are wide and in 5x100

Maybe these too

The bottom 2 links are pretty cool. I would keep thicker spokes for the "dirt" car, or the steel ones.

On a side note............FUUUUUUUUUUU wheeldude

 

[GClark]

I was thinking the Slipstream would be better for offroading. I wonder how strong the diamond racing wheels would be.

Knew you would say that, their customer service is pretty crappy. But their the only ones that sell those wheels, find me another place and I won't buy from them.

On another note,

[IBratmanI]

Yeah I know. Those ones are nice!! But a little pricey. But you got tha dough!! Lol

 

[SUBARUDE]

the reason I ask is cause I still have the net that goes to the basket I forgot to give it to him

 

[GClark]

I would love to take that off your hands

Had 3 stuck bolts while attempting to switch out my springs today, bad enough we're I had to call in my dad for help, and then he stripped a couple. So off to M and A it goes! I already had an appointment for the exhaust, so hopefully it will be done by tomorrow afternoon.

On another note, these King Springs are wicked beefy! Im very impressed, and all I could do this afternoon was look at them.
