I was just hoping I could see some pics of your EJ coupes rollin on 15's.

I have 17" RH cp-8s on my coupe right now and Im just about fed up with the harsh ride and por acceleration I get with these POS!

so if anyone has pics of their coupe on 15's preferrably something cheap made by rota or konig, Id really appreciate it. I just wanna know what it'll look like since I still do like how my 17's look right now.

Thanks

 

how about 14's?

 

very very very..nice..u ditched the wing if i remember

 

wow that coupe is clean..im feelin the 14's they fit nicely. what kind of rims are they?

 

love them trunks!

 

are those Panasports?

 

very nice ej

 

damn that's nice!

 

thanks for all the compliments guys... yes, I did ditch the spoiler, but just temporarily, there are still holes in the trunk, but there is a Wings West Flush Mount spoiler on the way to fill them... (it was cheaper to buy the wing and paint than to fill the holes)...

they are SSR RS8's... was in the market for 15" wheels, had my uncle in the Philippines buy a set of Rota Slipstreams for $400CDN over there to ship over here for me (thats where they're made which is why they were so cheap)...

then my friend who works at a Japanese parts import place aquired these wheels from a salvage in Japan... he sold them to me for $400CDN which also included barely used Dunlop Formula W10 tires... too good of a deal to pass up, so I bought them... the Rotas will probably go on my brothers DA Integra...

anyways, since I'm on the topic, does anyone know anything about my wheels and/or tires? The wheels look very similar to the RS Watanabe and/or Panasport wheels that are seen on some AE86 Levins/Truenos/Corollas and FC RX7's... are they produced by the same company and just badged different? (Rota/Konig for example)... on the back off the wheel it is stamped SSR RS8... here are some pics of other wheels that look very similar...

Watanabe RS8


Panasport FS Formula One


and also, I've never ever seen these tires before, only ones close to similar are the Dunlop Sport W10's, never seen or heard of a Formula W10... are they the same? everything I ever see is about the Sports, no information about the Formulas... but they grip very, very well...

sorry for the long post, and thanks again for all the compliments, or if u can provide me with an answer to any of my mysteries....

thats sick. You also added the side markers. where did you get info on installing them?.

 

Instructions:

tools needed:
-reciprocating saw with metal blade... very fine!
-drill
-lots of masking tape to protect the surrounding fender area
-sharpie
-template of sidemarker hole (i use manilla folder cutout)
-dremel would help, if not, sand paper for edges
-14-18ga. wire
-crimpers/strippers (not those kinds of strippers)
-miscellaneous wire connectors
-electrical tape
-a steady hand

or you can have me put em in for $45... freakin (amber only)sidemarker pro over here

here's mine with stock ITR 15's..

 

wow, I think I actually like the way the 15's look better .

do you guys know if I'd have any trouble mounting 15's over a Willwood big brake kit?

 

i heard that you will

 

From what I know Rota had some rims like those. They were called the RB13. 13" in size only though. And also the Konig Rewinds which were or are still offered in 13x8 or 14x7 and both weigh under 14lbs.
