After market wheel selection ...

Sharpie12 · 03-28-2016, 10:56 PM

I'm looking for aftermarket wheels that won't break the bank. Can people make some suggestions and possibly post photos if you have wheels on your i8? Also if you can post as much info about sizes as I'd like to buy a set that doesn't require spacers. Thanks guys

If you're looking for wheels that don't require spacers then you need a set of custom forged wheels. Here's my setup courtesy of ADV1 and WheelsBoutique.

I had no idea the V-FF 103 would fit on the i8. Looks great!!! What size tires are you rolling with? If the top of the tire flush or about how far does it stick out.

what size vorsteiners are they?

Just put a set of Vossen LC104's on. Vossen was great through the whole process and the fitment is dead nuts. Not quite bank friendly but won't break the bank.

245/40/20 and 285/35/20 Michelin PSS. These were prototype fitment and they clear with no rubbing. It has mild pokeage at factory height but I am installing h&r springs so when it lowers it cambers and will be super flush

I ordered the V-FF 103's, coming this week. So you suggest lowering the vehicle as well? That's what I haven't decided on...but I'm just keeping the car 7-8 months so not sure if it's worth it.
