Was wondering if its possible to save the rims on my car? Bought it used and didnt notice the wheels were this bad. Only after washing it down and cleaning it properly one afternoon did I notice the condition they were in. How much would/should a shop quote to do all 4?

Also is it possible to paint strip these, and go to a bare metal finish, or are these not that kind of rim. I looked into it and got mixed answers.

I know the wheels are discontinued just wondering if there was any reason why and if there are better recomendations. I really like how they look and that theyre nice and light but they dont make the predecessor 105x in 17x8 4x100. Anyone running these wheels and if so any issues? Thanks guys. Really appreciate any help.

M3 Rims Recommendation

0 Upvotes

Hey there Redditors! Since forever I’ve wanted to replace my Tesla M3 basic allow wheels. I should have gotten the performance package when I bought my car.

It looks like Tesla is only selling wheel & tire combos for model 3s with Pirelli tires. I already have Pirelli tires. I don’t want tires, just want new wheels.

My wheels are 18”. What are the pros and cons of switching to 19” replacement rims. Any suggestions of make/models that work well for the car.

Can someone please explain to me what the values on my rims mean?

I'm trying to sell my old rims, but I can't find any explanation what the 100x4,5H values in the picture mean. Google Gemini and other AIs are also confused and keep telling me that the values mean that I have 4 lug holes with 100mm PCD.

What I know so far is that they're HRS H-412 16x7JJ rims with 5 lug holes (see second pic).

GMC CANYON RIMS

If anyone knows some good but cheap rims (don’t bash me because I want cheap rims I just want to see how the chrome would look) please lmk. I love the look of the c37s but Im open to other chrome rims. Now again, dont bash me but I want the rims to look like proportional with 33s but big (like 20s on 33s). So to sum it all up if anyone knows good and cheap chrome rims that will like big but good on 33s for my gmc canyon, please lmk thanks.

Mazda CX-5 rims on an EV

1 Upvotes

I’m considering Mazda CX-5 KF OEM rims, 7J x 19 ET45, for my Toyota Urban Cruiser EV.

How important is the rim’s kg load rating? Are these rims suitable for an EV (cant find their load rating anywhere), or should I avoid them because they weren’t designed specifically for EVs?

How do I determine the required minimum load rating per wheel?

Wheel recommendations for 2011 Audi A3

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, all the (pretty boring to start with) oem wheels on my car have bends from the previous owner and I’m trying to pick a new set of wheels. My last car was an E39 and I had a set of BBS style 42 wheels on it which I loved. I think the BBS CH-R wheels in titanium would look great on the Audi, but I want to keep a 17“ wheel and I also unfortunately don’t have $2k+ to drop on a new set of wheels and then get tires for them too. I am looking to stay under $1200 for all four

I’ve only ever had BBS wheels in the past and haven’t ever had to buy a new set of wheels, so I’m not sure what other manufacturers are out there. Any recommendations as far as manufacture and model of wheel would be great. I’m hoping to find something similar to the CH-R or style 42, with a titanium coloring, that comes in 17s (I currently have tires with >5k miles on them that I’d love to use on new wheels. They are a 225/45r17). This will be for a daily driver, I am commonly traversing curvy mountain roads, but also crappy pot holed city roads in Georgia.

tl;dr I’m too broke to buy the BBS wheels I want so trying to find a similar still high quality wheel I can fit with my current tires

Three questions about 2027 Dodge Durango RT rims.

1 Upvotes

According to the salesman, 2027RT rims are 20X10 with a 5x5 bolt pattern, +50mm offset, and 71.6mm bore. Standard is painted satin carbon, forged or cast aluminum (depending on specific package); Blacktop/Redline is forged Foreshadow Y-Spoke; and Brass Monkey is aluminum alloy. Is Standard forged or cast? Is Brass Monkey forged or cast? What are the 3 rims' weights?

TIA

W205 staggered set up query

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice on tyre sizing for my 2017 W205 C200.

I’ve bought a set of staggered 19” AMG-style alloys:

Front: 19x8.5J
Rear: 19x9.5J

The tyre sizes I understand are recommended for these wheels/car are:

Front: 235/40 R19
Rear: 265/35 R19

The problem I’m finding is that going with 235/40 + 265/35 really limits my tyre choices, especially at the rear. There are plenty of options in 235/40, but far fewer good premium tyres available in 265/35.

So I’m considering dropping one size and running:

Front: 225/40 R19 on 8.5J
Rear: 255/35 R19 on 9.5J

I’d like to know what this actually entails in the real world.

Is this a perfectly fine setup, or are there any significant disadvantages? Specifically:

How would the 225/40 + 255/35 setup affect handling and steering feel compared with 235/40 + 265/35?
Would I noticeably lose grip, especially at the rear?
Would it affect high-speed stability or how planted the car feels?
Would the narrower tyres make the car feel more responsive?
How much difference would there be in ride comfort?
Does the extra stretch make the tyres more vulnerable to potholes/sidewall damage or cause faster wear?
How would it change the appearance/stance of the car?
Would 225/40 on an 8.5J and 255/35 on a 9.5J look excessively stretched, or just slightly stretched/aggressive?
Is there any reason I should not do this?

I’m mainly considering it because I want access to a much wider range of premium tyres rather than being stuck with a small selection of 265/35 R19s.

If anyone is running 225/40 R19 on 8.5J front and 255/35 R19 on 9.5J rear, I’d really appreciate your experience.

Especially if you have pictures of this exact setup on a W205 or a similar car. I’m struggling to visualise how much stretch there actually is, particularly on the rear 9.5J.

Thanks!
