Got to be tough choosing a set of shoes after looking at all those nice wheels.
gussie, are those the KONIG 'unknown' wheels??
They are Akuza 20x9" coupled with hankook ventus ST tires 275/45R20
oh ok...good lookin wheels...i was looking into the konig 'unknown' for my integra when they first came out..
check em out, they look just like yours ;)
Those rims on VXorados rig are sweet. :bwgy:
I was hoping my picture would be up. Those rims are for sale, so the setup will be changing soon. I really like Rickshaw's XD rims and may end up with those. BTW, I currently have 2" of lift by having a 2" spacer in the coils. The PO did that, but I plan on putting the 912s on when I get the new wheels. :dan_ban:

Oh no !! Fail pic of my Vx Lol.

Oh, neat! Mine's already up. Goodyear Duratrac 265 75 R16 (31.7in).
OME 912 & Torsion Bar (9 cranks).
Wheels are American Racing Teflon Victors. 0 Offset. Trimmed front and banged in back of the front wheelwells just a little bit.
Most everything I did I tried to ape others on the forum, so I wouldn't run into any issues that I'd have to fix myself :). The Victors are the same exact size and offset as the Teflon CHambers that are sold out everywhere. I've basically copied nfpgasmask through the years; the Victors were AR Chamber substitutes in the same exact dimensions, and I initially had General Grabber AT2 245 75 R16 to match his BFG ATs. When I did the OME 912s, I aped his as well, but moved to the Duratracs because I didn't want a full MT. His and crotchrocket's were the inspiration for the lift and tire size I finally got to. I can't find any pics of my old General Grabber AT2 at stock height that doesn't have the tires covered in mud:

After the lift and new bigger tires:

I just bought my VX 3 weeks ago and would love to put these on them. They looked great on that silver, and would be PERFECT on an ebony. But mine is a Proton, and im not sure if it would work on mine. any sugestions?
http://www.motometal.net/Moto_Metal_MO909.jpg
Somehow I figured Dub would be into those wheels. Has a very nice skull/Punisher theme. ;)
Ok, im 99% sure im going to get them now. Once i get it out of the shop this weekend.
If you know anyone that is good with photoshop, they could paste them into a picture of your Proton. I'd offer but I'm not any good with photoshop.
To Tire rack.com & use the matching feature the site offers for comparisons.
Welcome aboard !
To visually see if the wheels would look good on a Proton, there are various tire sites on the web that will "electronically" put the wheels on a Proton VX so you can see what they look like on your computer screen. This is a good way to visually check before you actually buy them.
For a tire that has "matching" Skull & Crossbones, check-out the DICK CEPEK - "CRUSHER" which has Skull & Crossbones actually molded into the tire sidewall as functional side-biters!!! It would make both wheels and tires totally match with the same exact theme. However, the D.C. - "CRUSHER" is only available in 15", 16", 17" size tires (no 18" tire is available). See them at www.TireRack.com:bgwb:

This has to be the most useful thread ever for those of us coming up on a tire replacement.
Thanks rickshaw! :D
I noticed my truck is half way up the page here. My wheels are American Racing Atx Mojave Coated w/ Teflon, 16x8. Purchased from Tire Rack.
I had to use the lugs to center them on the hub because the center caps are larger than the stock rims. I went with them because they reminded me of the 1980's trooper rims. They rock!
I forgot how much I love this thread... Keep up the good work!

Another inch of lift came courtesy of some 2" coil spacers in the rear, (Thanks Boss) and another 3 1/2 turns on the T-bars in front.
A LOT of fender liner/fender flare surgery, + lots of :smack: were required to enable full lock turns under suspension compression, so if you're squeamish about cutting up your VX, stay with the smaller rubber...:smilewink
I also had to shorten up my rock sliders by a couple of inches.
