US Mags makes 17's but only in truck bolt pattern & american sells the VN69 (nice) Ansen Sprint in 17 in our bolt pattern with ferd backspacing.

so baically, yeah you can get 17" slots for your truck or that free candy van you have hidden in the barn.

I wish I had $ for a set of Spiders. I am kinda glad the Spiders listed on eBay are the wrong bolt pattern.
I like these somewhat but there is a wheel that looks more like Spiders can't remember the name these would do for cheap on the right car

i thought about those vision wheels as well. they're certainly on the short list, if only because they're not torque-thrust-esq (i have TT2's on one car already, and some D's for my fastback!)

more over they reminded me of these, which i like...

72,
The reason I used the word 'weight' of air [ versus volume ] in the tyre is because weight is what changes when you inflate the tyre to different pressures. You were too dumb to pick that up....

go sell your crazy pants "ideas" on your own thread that's full of nonsense, misinformation and pontiacs or whatever.

i don't need your foolish and absurdist declarations cluttering up a thread that i started in an effort to find information about specific rim fitment.

so again, kindly piss off to elsewhere with your missives of larger rim detestation.

good day sir!

Did Ansen make any ugly wheels? I don't think they did. Just classic designs.

I think someone had a custom set of larger diameter aluminum wheels made to look like this, maybe a show car? And now I can't find it...

Nah, he just agrees with you, he doesn't "get" anything. You're both completely wrong, but don't let facts get in the way of some good bullshit. Maybe @amtronic1 will say what shocks/suspension he has so we could fix his issue without changing those beautiful wheels.

:rofl:

So, I've got to know. If I add 5 psi to my tires how much weight does that add? Please list the tire size you use for your calculation, it's estimated volume, your base tire pressure and the weight of air you're using at standard pressure/temperature so I can check your math.

I only mentioned volume because you said the air volume in a 17" wheel/tire combo is less than a 14" wheel/tire combo, which isn't at all necessarily true at all (easily shown with wider wheels/tires).

And what about the pressure changing with temperature? So, if the outside air temperature increases from when I filled my tires and the tire PSI goes up accordingly because you know, gas laws, does the ride quality not change because the weight of air in the tire remained exactly the same despite the change in pressure?

If the weight of the air is so important, shouldn't the fact that my 18" wheels and tires are like 4lbs lighter than the 15" wheels and tires they replaced be even more important? You know, because that's gonna be orders of magnitude larger than the change in the weight of the air?

Awww c'mon, I want him to calculate the change in the weight of the air from adding 5 psi to the tires! He claims to be smart, it's easy enough to calculate that.

those ansens would looks boss on a bmw! but "well exceeds SEMA specs"? what kind of tomfoolery is that?!?

and speaking of tomfoolery... i'll allow it if only as an example of such blatant prattling poppycock!

though only on the follow conditions: calculations must be converted to Curie Temperature and may only be presented in Melbourne Cricket Ground units adjusted to US standard fractional with a correction factor of Banana Equivalent Dose.

NB. summer air and winter air calculations will be required
