Bump for a good seller!

But don't forget about the hub bore...... we are 67.1mm!!

barberjohn · 06-28-2007, 01:00 PM

Weight? Do they come with hub centric rings?

Gruppe-S · 06-28-2007, 01:13 PM

Hi, the hub bores on most of the Volk / Advan line is about 73mm. We currently aren't including hub rings, but they can be purchased for $25 from discount tire. Thanks,

Ok. How about the weight of each wheel? And how long do you think you will have these sets in stock?

gerhard911 · 06-28-2007, 02:21 PM

The weight is listed as 19 lbs. on the Tire Rack website. They also show the Speed6 fitment at 48mm offset. Stock is 45mm ? Would there be brake caliper or suspension clearance problems with 43mm ?

Also, I looked at DiscountTire.com and couldn't find how to purchase the center rings. In fact they don't list Gram Lights on their wheel page. Do you have to go to one of their stores to get these ? I assume these let us use the stock Mazda center caps. If not what purpose do they serve ? Lug nuts included or can you use the Mazda nuts & wheel lock ?

For the speed6 id say the lowest you can go safely with little worries is 42.

The smaller the offset, the farther from the brakes and suspension the wheel is. However they are also closer to the fender, hence the concern for rolling.
Stock offset for the Speed6 is +55mm.
The will not use the stock center caps.
Yes you need thinner tuner lug nuts.
Hubcentric rings and center caps are two totally different things.
Hubcentric rings are simply rubber rings that fit over our stock hub so the larger aftermarket wheels fit snugly. A little reasearch and you should be able to find them for less than $25.

Thanks for the info ! I did figure out the offset after reading the sticky on the Wheels & Tires page.

So there is a chance that these wheels @ +43mm will need a fender roll (even with stock tire size) ?

I am interested in the 8.5x18 et 43. Are these also the same price?
EDIT I got a quot for them and the sale is over, but price seems decent.

Can anyone do a photoshop of these on the red speeed6? I will try myself when I get home, but I do not know how to use photoshop.
