Got my wheels today.



I've basically blew all my spending money for the month. lol So, it may be until next month when anything exciting happens.





In the mean time, I'll just post this pic and update my master checklist in the OP.

Well, I was a little disappointed when looking at the backside of the wheels. I thought these would be made by OZ, since Hyundai was trying to replicate the rally car parts. Instead, I find the TSW logo.

What do those weigh? About 20 lbs?

JonGTR

They are 16x7 and 18.2lbs I bought them for the style and collectability, not performance.

Cool, I was just curious. Same weight as the much smaller Hyundai 14x5.5 steelie.

Are they wider than the FX alloys? 16 X 7 is really great!



Yeah TSW made those specifically for this car. But there is no denying that they were the least bit influence/copied off the O.Z. racing.







But I still love the Superturismos over everything. They're still in production!

JonGTR

Yea, I believe the FX's came with 15x6's. The extra inch in width is a big upgrade for this car for handling and style.



Those Superturismos are nice but weigh 21 lbs. Worth it if you intend on rallying your car.

There were a handful of rd1's over here that were fitted with 15" x 6.5 wheels, they 're what we try and run on the cup cars due to the slightly bigger width. They look similar to the evo wheels and there aren't many of them about

Newton is in the process of gathering the remaining items to complete my conversion. I updated the first post with my item list and I cannot think of any other items needed.
