  • Update: Wheels and tires are now on craigslist for 800 obo. People keep offering me trades for rota gt3's but to be honest those are like my least favorite wheel ever. And every person with a honda has them. Once i sell the wheels i plan on getting the same diamond racing wheels same color and everything but in 16x8. So me and Pavementwago will be twins. PS Don't think I'm a biter because of that. I just need my car higher off the ground because the roads here are absolutely horrible.

    Ur gonna go through all the trouble. I honestly wouldn't. Keep ur wheels sell the tires. Its funny lots if people love diamonds. I'd never deal with them again. Way to heavy also
  • Yeah they're really heavy I just really like the look. I just want something in a 16 with low offset
  • TheGmanTheGman Wagonist
    16x9 -10 offset

    Go hard son!

    Suuuuuper low offset lol

    16x9 is what I want. But no 9 inch in diamonds. If and when I change wheels ill look at 15x9 or 10 or 16x9
  • What size tire would you run on those? And some kid wants to trade me gsr twisties with tires plus 500 cash. What do you guys think?
  • PavementwagoPavementwago Senior Wagonist
    It's not a horrible deal. But I'd run 175/50 if not a 195/50. Tyrestretch.com. will give u great ideas. I'm even seeing 165/60 decent price searched on Google and 165/55. Bring that there 165 that will give u a good stretch still
  • id trade for the blades and 500 in a heart beat
  • Alright I think I'm gonna trade him
  • Guy backed out so i still have my wheels for now
  • PavementwagoPavementwago Senior Wagonist
    Well that sucks
  • Trying to decide the next thing i want to do to the wagon. On thing i definitely need to do is detail it. Probably do that this week.
  • Keep the wheels...have you looked at getting some 195/50's..i ordered a set of Falkens off of discounttiredirect.com for 300 out the door and that came with their replacement deal..i love the look of the diamond wheels..but sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do...wagon looks good for sure though!
  • I'm selling the wheels tomorrow hopefully. Then I'll buy some bigger diamond racing wheels. I think I'm gonna powder coat them tan.
  • Just a quick question and forgive me if i sound really dumb, but my mind has gone blank. Can I or can i not run a staggered setup on an RT4WD. Wanted to run 16x9 in the rear and then realized it would probably mess up my driveshaft. Just need some clarification.. Please and thank you.
  • Car looks sick, i think the drws looks great on it.. I need to get aome wheels for mine but i think ill hold off until after i get back from afghanistan
  • What branch are you in?
  • TheGmanTheGman Wagonist
    You can run staggered wheels, just make sure the overal diameter of all the wheels are very very close. Which all comes down to tire size..
  • So if I had 16x8 in the front with a 175/50 and a 16x9 in the back with a 185/50 the difference is about 5mm so that should be fine?
  • So i sold the diamond racing wheels and just bought some new wheels. 16x8 in the front and 16x9 in the rear. Wondering what tire size you guys suggest. I was thinking 205/40 16 in the rear and 195/40 16 in the front. Input would be greatly appreciated. And I'm not telling you guys what wheels i got until they get here in the mail :P
  • id go with the specs your wanting. anything smaller would be retarded
  • So last Wednesday was my 21st birthday. I had been waiting to come back to Vancouver where my girlfriend lives because she said she had an awesome present for me. I got here yesterday and this is what she had waiting for me.......

  • Man, must be nice to have a girlfriend that likes your wagon and buys parts for it. Mine thinks I'm wasting my money on it haha
  • A girlfriend that doesn't like the wagon???? I don't like the sound of that one bit.....
  • Well, not that she doesn't like it, more like she doesn't like me spending money on it haha. But hopefully I will be able to get some different wheels on it for the summer
  • Damn i wish i had the 800 for the wheels right now, id be a happy owner of some fresh drws lol

    Love the wheel, it a classic?
  • yessir it is. Most comfortable steering wheel i've ever felt

    My girl bought my car lol and the wheels and suspension. Very sweet of her. But sad to say got rid of my wheels. Was tired of them being so un balanced. I couldn't drive hard or there be major chattering. Rocking blades for right now
  • Aw the steelies are gone!? Not gonna lie though they do ride like shit. Any idea on wheels your gonna get?
