what wheel size 13", 14", 15" use on hachi ?

[Ryo]

I want to know under different relations what size of wheels use on hachi.
I have steel standard toyota rims 14" running on 185/60 bridgestone rubber. I have standard toyota shocks and springs.
In future i want somethink like Sportmax 002 because of a reasonable price and deep polished lip

well on stock setup 13 will look like an offroader IMHO... personaly I'd go for 15" because tires are cheaper to get in that size, even if performance will suffer from it.

My choice - konig rewinds in 14".

Hi, how much are 14" tires where you are... around here I pay 50-100% more for the equivalent 15" version :/ I'd love to get some 14x8 but as mentioned above will end up with 15x8s

one example

toyo T1R:

195/55R14 - 2090czk
195/50R15 - 1370czk

that is for me reason enough to search for 15 inch wheels

What kind of rims are these "Sportmax 002" ??
I have never heared them before. Do you have any pics?

Sportmax 002 require rolled fender.
There is cheap rewinds copy, the rims called Fast Forward.

I am going to order Rewinds 14x7 soon. Maybe this week

I ve tried 185/55 on 14x6, 185/55 on 14x7 and 205/50 on 15x5 in my GZE'd 86 and I think 14'' is the size for the AE.

When the driftking uses 14'' i dont see the reason for someone to use 15...

[Kas]

I use on my hachi 185/60 R14 Falken ZE 512, i think, tires are ok, price are a bit higher than for example T1R, 195/50R15 and 15" tire last longer than 14 ", much longer.

14" tire are too tight, and they are melting ( faling apart ) on track.

If I use some less soft tire, they do not have enought grip.

Becouse that, I will go for 15 ".

Tomorow will post pic of tire after Hungarian drift day, where I drowe about 15 smal laps in series of 3.
