Our stock 17" is in the size of 17x7 Offset +49 and PCD 5x112. Besides those from Merc, Brabus, Carlsson and Lorinser, it's quite hard to find aftermarket rims for the B in 17", or even in 18", though there are a lot of 19" and above ones.

My B is on 18"...and I know one of our bro's B is on 19" :thumbsup:

It is almost impossible to find those locally available Taiwan/China/Thailand rims for the B. Most probably you need to indent thru shops (to import from Europe/Japan/US)

Here is my 18" chromie from Japan 8.)

Can u Bros tell me those 19inch types are what brand? And where is a good place to see?

Those 19" are from Fabulous in Japan. There are many shops around...the problem is hardly any rims are suitable for the B due to its high offset (around +49) and PCD 5x112.

The best place to search for rims is the Internet. Look around and if you manage to find one suitable, you can always import them thru shops. At least that's what I did ;)

Yep...they look damn fierce. I'm sure you can always find a workshop or two in the Hotstuff magazine http://www.hotstuffmag.net/

One thing though, darken/tinted head lamps are not LTA friendly.

Nemo, Nice rims .... Give us some field report of the new wheels.

I put on the rims and took left my spare tyres at home. Car is lighten. When I move off I can feel my car roll of a tat faster. At higher speed around 90-110.. ride actually feel smoother and quieter with the Rev Spec tyres. Tyre profile is now 40 instead of 45 but it did not really take away comfort. Lighter and bigger rims really made acceleration a bit quicker. Overall me a satisfied customer :rockon:
