I understand that our wheels are a 4 bolt x 110 pattern. Where do you guys/gals get your wheels?

 

www.tirerack.com ~ Kosei k-1 team dynamics ~ pro race 1,2,3(custom drilled from england but still a good price per wheel, about 130) http://www.vickracing.us/cgi-bin/vickracing ~ panasport
centerline wheels (just type that in on google) also some wheels called Snyper R-1 (i think) cant remember site in google type wheelspecs 4x110 and you should get a couple links to a very informative site called wheelspecs with some wheels ive been looking for wheels since i got my car a year ago, there are still some others i forgot i think God bless

 

sorry, team dynamics does not have anything to do with kosei wheels, its an entire new site

 

I have a set of 16" panasports on my 79. Hard to find but nothing looks better then PANASPORTS on a first gen

 

roh makes the snyper wheels.....it is the only set that the specialty shop here can get for the 1st gen look pretty good too

 

no to hijack.... but what if we're looking for wider wheels to fill out a mariah widebody kit say 8 or 10 inch wide... anyone know where they can be found.. or is the only option getting lug adapters?

 

im with dripa that sounds bad *** but if the only option is lug adapters where do you get em

 

http://www.cpracing.ca/ they have them... accept u will see allllll kinda bad feed back about the guy on that site.. but if you search google there are a bunch of guys that will make u custom ones... but it's alll about the $$$$$

nice, you gata pm me, tell me who what where and when, not a show freak but been looking for newer rims for my car forever and now that ive seen it i want.

 

You can get almost the same wheel from sears for like $199. The only difference is they don't have the little nipples or allen bolts around the rim. btw, i'm talking about the wheels on the white/cream 7.

 

These are the ROH Snypers:

 

If you're not too attached to the alloy wheel look, http://www.diamondracingwheels.com/ makes a really nice steel wheel in all sorts of widths and sizes to fit our bolt patterns. They're light for steelies too, which is a plus.

 

I'll tell you what I had to go through to get 1 wheel.
When I got my 7 it had 3 boyds and a spare tire on it. The guy I got it from said he looked for 2 years trying to replace the front wheel with the 4th bodys.
After alot of searching I found one. Beleive it or not it was brand new. Because bodys hasn't made the dragstar for a number of years, les schwab was as excited to sell it as I was to find it.

The only problem was it was a 5 on 5 bolt pattern. No biggy, I'll put it on my mill and make it a 4 on 4.5 like they told me it was. As you all no its actually 4 on 110mm. I found out the hard way. So I took it back home and drill it again for 4 on 110. problem was I had an aluminum wheel with 13 holes in it now. So I bought some 5/8" dia aluminum and tig welded slugs in all the holes. I started over and now have a perfect 4 on 110mm wheel.
Went back to les Scwab to have the tire mounted and balance and the damn thing was a 16" my other was a 15". So now I'm looking for either another 16x8 boyd or another 15x8 body.

I'm running the 16 and 15 together. The O.D. of the tires is only off by less than an 1/8" but I need to get them matched.

Moral of the story. Drill the spindle and leave the wheels alone. and if you find wheels that fit buy about 6 or 7 spares, cause you'll never find'um again.

Wanted 1 Boyds Dragstar in 16x8 any lug pattern

 

That sandy tan FB is HOT!

 

i want the wheels on the orange one.... anyone know where they came from?????

 

Simmons 3piece wheels from Australia. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

 

I vow to get a set of gold panas for my FB, as soon as I get my exhaust done...and get another job...that website better not close down haha

I better get a good job because they are $956 wihtout shipping or tires haha

 

i'm telling you white 17's.......is this thing on......?

 

For 17" rims, those are quite tasteful, and they look allirght on the FB.. whats the width drugblock?

 

drugblock is just a term me and my brother use to relate to where we came from. the drugblocks of humboldt park, chicago. where rotaries rule and puerto ricans show more respect to an rx anything than they do anything else on wheels........

 

I think he just wanted to know how wide the wheels are.

 

LOL... I was just saying to myself "What the hell is this guy talking about"

 

i will say that was very funny. i was in a rush and didn't really see what i was reading. anyways they are 205 and i run them with a decent falkin 40ZR17. next time i will take more time to read the question........

forgot to tell you that i had to modify the front lower spring support for those wide tires. the rear ones went on with no problem.

 

17's all the way
