put my chrome rims on Friday and they rubbed in the front whenever i turned, also the ride with the chrome was horrible so I am looking towards silver rims either the adr octanes or the excel speed with 215 50 17. Hope they work.
This picture is not that great, had a shitty camera

Dude. You didn't even post your offset. Rims have more measurements than just tire size. Try reading the rest of the forums before you guy buy another set of rims that won't work.

DON1, I was looking at your cardomain site and I saw the TVs install. Would you mind giving more details if you installed them and how it went...

don1 · 01-30-2004, 05:49 PM

actually a shop did it for me. I bought the tvs on my own and the install costed $850 which included an autopage alarm with remote start which came from my last car (millenia), 2 twelve inch kickers, 2 boston acoustic rear speakers 5 by 7's and a rockford amp and also a boss dvd unit . There is a dvd unit hidden in the center console which powers the lcds and they had to place and amp to boost the signal of the rear screens.

Thanks DON1. So they installed 5 TV screens plus the DVD unit and amp. and all that for $850?

Did you have to replace your head-rests?

Thanks again, I think it is very neat what you have done.

don1 · 01-31-2004, 07:27 PM

they are 4 screens not 5 , the unit in the console is the the dvd headunit.

Hey, I wanted to get Excel Speed in 215/45/17 nd i have a 6i w/o eibachs.....will get eibachs soon though. The offset are +45. Please tell me if thsse will fit. Want to get my rims by spring.

NYK814,

From what I've heard from other members, you should be fine with +45 offset. Although I'm not an expert so you may want to wait for more answers

timba24 · 02-04-2004, 03:43 PM

I know ATL is running 18x7.5 with a 45offset with 215/40/18 with eibachs and no rubbing at all
