Group Buy - Ruff Racing Deep Lip Wheels - Updated 11-22-06

[Gregmatic]

If they can definitely be ordered in an 18X9 w/ a +20 offset then I'll happily put a down payment on a set of R280's. Sweet looking, fits right w/ no adapters and reasonably priced, c'mon people get your money right and get in! I wasn't too crazy about the Rota set from the last GB but I'd be happy with almost any of these styles. Just make sure to work out the details on the offset an verify that the lip on the rim will be close to if not identical the one pictured and I'm 100% in.

Oh and NIVO,
I'm in Danbury and would gladly come pick them up and help distribute them to all the NE Z31'ers south of you so we can save on the shipping as well. I'm about an hour and a half away.

these (Ruff Racing) are available in 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 in +20, +25, +35. (not all offets available in all sizes. 17" sizes are 17x7 from what I have seen). 19" and 20" also available for more...

These wheels also come in the 4x114.3 bolt pattern for 4 lug cars in sizes from 17"-20"

The lips are mostly the same for the lower offsets at 3.25-3.5" lip on the rears.

Pretty much what you see is what you get... the rear lips on the 9.5 is over 3".

Wow! yeah I know where Danbury is. Nothing is finalized but this GB is in addition to the Rota D2. some want the Rota, Some want other styles. I am just putting out the choices or come up with some for us.

they are available in 17"-20" 5x114.3 and 4x114.3 in offsets from +20mm through +45mm. but you must contact adriano for correct offset and widths.

Things are looking good for this group buy. Adriano is very helpful and does want to help the Z31 community out!

i wish i could afford some. but it'll have to wait until later. hopefully i can stop buying performance stuff and buy some wheels. but i'd almost always like to go faster then make it pretty. ops: :twisted:

Ok guys, Adriano G. is working with us on these wheels. He is already registered on the forums so he could pipe in any time to provide info.

Basically the price for this site only is $636 for the 18x8.5 fronts and 18x9.5 rear.

He can also provide us with tires, We can get smoking deals on new Falkens. He can give you the info soon but made mention of the new FK 452's or the older 451 series of tires.

This will be the set price for the wheels for this site only!.

All styles available in gloss black and Hyperblack colors for the same price as stated above.

He mentioned we only need a minimum of 4 buyers and the price will be set until further notice! So buy now, buy for x-mas, new years and even tax season! The price sits for this site! Let your buddy and fellow Z31 enthusiasts know!

Pictures of the 278 in hyperblack soon to come!

I'm turning 30 next week, new birthday wheels for the geezer! :P

Could you provide some more info such as payment methods, time frame on delivery, etc... not trying to be a pain in the arse just really excited and trying to get all my stuff squared away.

Also would it be possible to get the weights on these. I know already that an 18-incher will be far from light but still would like to know just cause I'm a dick

BTW nice work NIVO, bout time somebody got on the ball!

The R280's would look SICK on my 87. I love the deep lip cause to me the deeper the rim is (within reason) the better it looks. So how do I get in on the action? I'm loving the 280's

Here are the Falkens, the 451 vs the 452 tires from a BMW owner that owned both on a 9.5" wheel.
