well after the debacle with the misdrilled holes on a single wheel the replacement finally showed up... Let me know what you guys think. I am not 100% sold on how they look, I like them a lot but what I like the most is the weight. Out of the box, with no lugs or centercap or valve stem the wheel weighed 15.7 lbs which is 2.1 lbs lighter than enkei claimed, I did not get a chance to weigh the entire corner, but did get to pick one up and i swear it felt lighter than just one of my avus wheels alone... it probably wasn't but it was close.

Definitely not flashy which works for me... The one thing I don't like is the carbon center cap, wish it were flush...

I also am half tempted to return them and buy some volks or rays in 19s, but the car rides brilliantly with these tires and wheels, way better than it did with the 17s and the crappy yokos.

be honest too, i don't offend easily ;P

looks nice- 18's or 17's? lower that bish and it will look much better.

yeah, have thought about it, but it IS my DD, and I'm kind of a big guy to be getting in and out of a lowered car...

I actually think the reason i don't like it is because i've owned a car with 20's on it for the past 2 years (SRT8 300C) - so the 18s just look so tiny... now to be fair the "forged" 20" wheels on the SRT8 weighed something like 44 lbs each with out a tire... i think they were forged out of bricks...

We'll see, if they don't grow on me, i may be selling a brand new set of RPF1s for a song at least the tires are returnable hehe...

I am around 25 or 25.25" (I forget and haven't measured in a while) at inside of the fender arch.

zmw

zmw

not enough rim and +35 offset is not enough offset for that much tire ;P

S4lorn
