Default IT CAN BE DONE!!!!!!! 17X9 ON ITR!!!!! 56k...go peel some potatoes!!

yes!! me and my friend were testing out his Regamaster unto his ITR.
the setup is like this. 17x9 offset +37 in the front, wrapped stretchly with Dunlop Direzza 215/40R17, and 17x8 offset +35 at the back, wrapped with Dunlop Direzza 205/40R17!!!!!
Remember, he doesnt run with camber kit whatsoever!!!! Apparently he really really like it! all he's planning to do is just to repaint the wheels, and try to get original Regamaster EVO stickers.
Being different........

anyways!! on to the pics!!


see how much it sticks out at the back....


front.....














from the top.......


let me know wat cha think.........

this made me lol... look around on HT. Look at the posts for the past year/year and a half. The whole "low offset" thing IS the new "bandwagon" You guys are doing JUST THAT.... jumping on the "new bandwagon" Whatever... its not my style. I just dont like all the lip of the wheel exposed. I suppose if it were a race car and you were taking advantage of the extra width with a tire that actually does that I could understand.

if you had a wider tire on there, something with a lip protecting thing, it would look badass and handle very well.

but as of now, i think it looks like pure **** becuase the rim is all dented up for rideing on those smaller tires. my .02

i would put the lower offset, wider wheel on the rear. I think it looks odd as it, like you are running drag setup constantly hahaa

At least its better than 99% of honda-tech's sunken battleship look. But poke isn't good for hondas, leave it to 240's and vw's
