Ya, I'm leaning that way at the moment. Waiting to hear back what the 5ADs weigh. I know the Reverbs are 19lbs, even for the 18s - so they're lighter than stock.

Yanki01

wow, never realized they were that light. why not enkei RPF1s? i never liked those axis wheels they just came out with, i like the Hiro's or Reverbs.

Yanki01

btw, are you doing any auto-x in the new wheels?

Ro_Ja

Are those the only wheels you're considering?

RPF1s would be ideal - but a bit out of my price range. Unless I can find a good deal on them. That and their sizes are weird. If I stay in STS, I can't go any wider than 7.5. And the 17x7.5 only come in a 48 offset (same with the 18s, actually) - which kind of sucks.

Autox - yes. Which is why the weight matters.

I'd consider others... but I'm trying to look at budget too.

Looks like discount tire has $50 off a set of Enkeis right now... but even then, the 17x7.5s are still $900.

Which.. I guess isn't horrible for what they are.

Those 5AD wheels look terrible. Get the reverbs if you still can!

Ah, I see the Reverbs listing is gone... sold I presume.

And ya, the 5ADs are different. I didn't think the silver would look that bad on silver though - and Longo has them for decent prices.

Guess it's time to start considering the RPF1s.

check out Dezod for some deals

They can't be DiscountTire right now unfortunately. DTD is $20 cheaper as is... but are also offering $50 off a set through next Friday. So that's $70 less than Dezod.

And trust me, I'd be happy to support Dezod more than I already have, but $70 is a lot of money in my pocket. Would cover lugs and hub rings, easy.

Eh, Skick Pics.

Swapped back OEM hood. Wheels looked better w/o c/f hood IMO.




Needs GFX KIT!!!!

I think I liked it better with the cf hood. Oh well.

Yeah the hood complimented the lip nicely.

i think its clean either way, though i do agree, the cf hood looked just a bit better

either cf hood and cf lip or silver hood and silver lip.

B_tC

Eh, got tired of the black hood. I'll swap it back if i ever paint m rims black.
