I really like these niche wheels but they’re cast and I’m looking for flow formed to reduce weight. Any suggestions greatly appreciated
The leak is coming from the red arrow. No leak from the yellow arrow area. I tried tightening the whole stem with a socket, but that did not stop the leak. Would tightening the shrader valve with a shrader valve tool fix this? Or would it seem that the leak would be coming from a poor seal inside the wheel?
I was hoping to get a set of these soon but they are too wide to fit on my 2007 Honda fit.
Is there anything similar in a star pattern? That's 15x7.5?
Just had my newer tires remounted on brand new rims yesterday. I noticed the front passenger side seemed lower yesterday at only 10 psi. I figured they just under inflated and was going to inflate this morning. I woke up to it completely flat. I understand that they either just didn’t mount well or possibly the rim is bad.
My question is, if I inflate the tire. Will it be safe to drive on to get me back to the shop? Or is it dangerous to drive on a poorly mounted tire?
Also, can the tire itself be damaged after deflating and having the weight of the vehicle pressing down on it?
Hey, are thebubbles next to the bolts (rust i think) fixable? or are they bad?
Just stole a set of Fifteen52 Tarmac EVO Gold!
Can someone help please They are 5X112 X2 18X8J X2 18X8 1/2 J And if they fit a 2008 bmw 128i I know i need a wheel adapter!
Looking for some help. I understand what a wheel offset is but I’m unsure if and how it might negatively affect my vehicle. I’m looking to get a used set of wheels with a +4mm offset compared to the stock setup currently on my car. Could I run into any issues? The rest of the wheel specs are exactly the same as my current rims, just a slightly larger offset.
I have a Saturn Sky Redline and finding 5x110 rims I like is a damn joke. There are a decent amount, but except 2 sets everything I'm finding I like is 5x112.
I've narrowed it down to 1 5x110 set and 3 5x112 that I'd get re-drilled. Of course no stores anywhere around me have any of the 3 to go see in person. So I'll be jumping in the deep end and hoping that what I get I end up liking. Once they're mounted that's gonna be it there's no going back. And I'm not even sure how returning something like rims would go if I wanted to do that before I mounted them.
So I'm looking for a few opinions, I know looks are subjective, but at least maybe a couple folks on here could tell me what they think so I can see things from a different view.
Rotiform LAR-S & RSE, 19x8.5 with the Aerodiscs. Konig MRK1 with the Areocovers.
I especially like the LAR-S's, but Rotiform has discontinuted them and I'm not buying until Febuary so I might not even be able to find that size by then. Also, they weren't designed with an American car in mind. I think they look slick and unique I like them both with and without the Aerodics on. The RSE's look like something more made for an American car which makes them not stick out as much to me. But I feel they would probably look good, where the LAR-Ss will either look amazing, or absolutely terrible. I don't think there's an inbetween lol.
The MRK1s look super nice to me with the Aerocovers. But again, this wheel wasn't designed with anything American made in mind except a Ford Focus. So I don't know if these would look right on my car. Part of me loves the Aerocovers, but a part of me thinks they would look stupid lol.
Even if I found a place that would let me return them before I put them on. I'm trying not to go that route. I've spent the last 2 weeks looking and looking and looking for 5x110's that I like. And I've given up. I called and spoke to a few machine shops, one high rated one a city over specalizes in wheels and they do a lot of re-drilling. I understand that's not the perfered way to do things, but everything I like's something that's not 5x110. So at this point if I buy new wheels, re-drilling will be it as the 5x110s I'm finding are whatever to me.
The Roti's are +45 and the MRK1's are +43. My car's 8.5+55 stock, so I'm going to need a spacer or something I'm sure.
Would anyone here put any of those 3 on a Sky Redline?
First time ever getting wheels and tires, used willtheyfit.com but tbh i dont really know what Im doing.
Will Mazda wheels fit on a Honda with the same bolt pattern?
Is anyone looking for or interested in a pristine set of 6 rims? 2 never mounted, only one wheel has a little curb rash.
These were mounted on my wife's FD rx7 so offset was picked for that application.
All 5x114 All 18" More specs available if anyone is interested

Im looking for Ferrada CM2 copies or same design. I absolutely love this design, especially the matte graphite finish. Unfortunately, I need a 5x108 bolt pattern. Does anyone know where to find them? 5x108 options really rare and suck.
I’m looking for wheels similar in style to these to explore my options
Love these wheels but takes a lot to keep them clean. What are some wheel cleaners and brushes that won't scratch i should look into?
