found some 17x7.5 ssr comps in gold. 12.1 lbs. 50mm offset. is that too much?

 

nevermind just got sold on the ssr gt2's. 14.6lbs 17x7.5 only 410 a corner on tirerack. WORD!

 

if your going with ssr rims, you might want to check out eurosport -see what kind deal they can give you... they will know what offset you can run...

 

+50 is perfectly fine.

 

yo ssr's on yer jb wagon is sick! if i had the cash, then i'd go with work cr emotion kai's 17 or 18's with kdw's. good luck

 

what big brake kit are you planning to go with and are you going to use the big brake kit?

If you're just using it for a LOOK then I'd say save your money and get something you'll actually use. (read: if you ain't gonna do track days or auto-x then you don't need to get a big brake kit)

regarding your wheel offset.. your WRX will have a 48 offset so 50 is ok.

17x8.5 on a wagon is silly i think you're over doing it. at most you should get 8. If you get a 7.5 the tire size that you got 225/45/17 is a good choice. if you get 8 or 8.5 you might want to go a little wider but you'll be rubbing quit a bit and that could be dangerous.

hmm. why are you going with zero2r's and a bbk? if the zero2r's are still bottom adjustable(more than likely?) then it is a PITA to adjust, get the regular ones. BBK??? whoa. why? it will just take up a bunch of money. save the money and get swaybars, endlinks and some blingy tower bars.

roll the fenders and no worries.

thanks infek and b. prolly cancelled the plan to get the bbk because im going to get the vf34 + supporting mods package from mpj. (unless somebody knows where i can get it cheaper. installed my accessport today. cant tell a whole lot of difference running the stage one map but when i get my turbo back or cat back i think it will be nice and even better when i put the 34 package on. also will be taking delivery of wheels on friday or saturday (does brown run on sat?) coilovers should be here the same day or monday. anybody free for an install day next week? most likely gonna need some help. never done coils before. anyways im well on my way to being happily modded up and i should be done spending money within the week. thanks for all the advise again guys. ps if you wanna help me install the food and beer are still being provided even if you just wanna come stand around and laugh at me. call me at 714) 420-5659

 

when are planning to install everything? I mean, most of your stuff are not here yet right?

 

good point i guess it would make more sense to wait till everything gets here. i still need to order strut braces and r/ swaybar/endlinks. still dont know who i am ordering thru. stupid vivid wont answer any of my emails re: my order update so i dont know whats going on with my order there.

 

ooh another vivid issue... surprise surprise

 

haha yeah somebody told me that vivid blows...

 

And you still ordered from Vivid??????

 

unfortunately somebody told me after i ordered.

 

That sucks... you should've ask us first b4 u order...
