Which wheels

Post by hatch360 »

Im starting to do more to th 360 now and getting some wheels is on the agenda :D I have been forced to shortlist it to these two

The Rice ones

The not so stylish

Is an offset of 45 bad news.

So what do you thinks better? Or should I just forget about them and keep up with the search? :?

Thanks

I live in SA anyway! No good wheels for sale locally. Although I found 4 15x7's ABT (made in Italy) rims for sale with sumitomo's for $550, but I think that is too much...

I think you'll be ok, it's only 10mm difference. I'd say 195s will be ok, but get the smallest profile you can.
