Hagas,

Where did you get them and do you mind sharing the price? Just starting to do my homework here...

 

here is the pics of the FRD 30 17x8's that I installed on a coupe with brembo's. Sorry but i could not take full side shots, it was night time and my camera really bites

Funny those look exactly like the CSA Gladiators I have....definately!

 

CSA and FRD and Fox 5's are made by the mullens company out in Australia. There are so many versions of this wheel. And yes, they are the same, but I believe your offset is 21 and the FRD is 24. Sorry about posting in your thread but I wanted to get some pics up for everyone to see that your rims and my rims will fit and how well they look on the coupe.

what would you people choose between Pirelli W210 Snowsport or Bridgestone Blizzaks LM-22? and why?

also will the 3mm offset make much difference if any? which wheel will fit better or maybe the same?

might as well ask you guys about wheel width while I'm at it. what are your thoughts to 7"/7.5"/8" widths? what did you get or will you get?

 

In regards to the group pricing the 17x8 Gladiators with Yokohama winters V901 is $2020.00 mounted balanced and installed. - Let me know so I can arrange a set.

As for the other tire choices I can arrange on a want and need basis.

Thanks for the inquiries, Jerry

 

lemme know man when you can.

later

 

People I've done research, 5AT models can get away with putting 16' wheels. However 6MT cannot, due to the Brembo brakes. Guys with 6AT must spend the additional amount for winter tires and wheels. And the best tires are by Dunlop. I will inform you of the speecfic Dunlop tires soon.

 

I went with this package:
4- 17x8 FRD 30 (24 offset)
2- 225/50/17 Blizzak LM-22
2- 235/50/17 Blizzak LM-22
