Thanks.

As much as I love the B14 wheels, they are not exactly lightweight at 17 pounds. Not bad, but not really light. And we all know that less unsprung weight affords a better ride quality.

These Traklite Gears are 15X7, 4X100, +35, very strong and 10.9 pounds each. Which is within a pound or so of the forged wheels ($$$) I'd been eye-balling. I really like the subdued style and price of the Traklites at $139 each.

I am going to paint them a shade or three lighter in color. Silver/grey/gun metal of some sort but more of a contrast to the vehicle color will look much better. They *appeared* lighter colored to me on-line and even prior to bolting them onto the car. Right now I'm not screwing with them till post-Convention.

I really like the noticeably better ride. I can definitely feel the rather significant 6-pound difference per corner.

I have always been a fan of the B14 wheels on a B13. But now I don't know if I can ever go backwards on that unsprung weight, I love how freakishly smooth my suspension (CSK/Hyperco) has become with these light weight wheels.

Holy CRAP! Why have I not poked my head into this thread before?!? Look at all these sweet Classics, I love it!

@sr20brian - Man, that's got to be one of the nicest Classics on Long Island. Nice, nice score. Hope all is well with you, it's been a while.

@alki24 - My oh my! It doesn't get much better than a GT-S kitted Classic on RPF1's.

@Shawn B - You're on the money with wanting to lighten up the wheels. A little contrast will be just the ticket.

My 94


My new 92. I'm collecting goodies for this one.

@Chriscar is the 92 that super low mile one that was sitting outside of Nissan and got restored by an executive's kid? (or something like that)
