I'd pick TE37, lightweight rims :D
second choice enkei, third g-games. sf-challenge not my cup of tea.
I'm considering the enkei myself, I don't think I want to spend that much on rims, as I won't be tracking a lot.

If so they're not gunmetal but gloss black. Gunmetal = brake dust LOL

ok i think i reached my final decision
it will actually be the TE37s in bronze(as there is no gold
)
18" x 8.5" with +40 offset all round
been reading up on the RAYS owner's club thread
https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-wheels-tires-brakes-suspension-55/calling-all-rays-wheel-owners-88311/
and it took me like 2 hours to read em all lol, had a good hard looked around, found that about 40% had 99Bs in gunmetal very popular, 20% on TE37s and 20% on SF-Challenges...
saw some TE37 in bronze on a VR, looked so yummy and i thought it wouldnt be so bad after all for a WB
most of the guys on that thread all run staggered setups with 19" x 8.5" fronts and 19" X 9.5" and most of them had crazy offsets in which all rubbed, most had to roll up rear fenders too.
i also found that i didn't like the 99bs and SF challenges polished rings... so that only leaves me with TE37s
had a look at the black TE37s in which only came in the time attack version, had a red ring around it in which i didnt liked much...![Uhh](https://www.rx8club.com/images/smilies/uhh.gif)
anyway should have my hands on those bronze te37s in about 13 weeks i hope
including this one...

YaY u made great decision.
Yea most people seem to go staggered with that set up. I also chose to have 19x8.5 +38 offset all round. I couldnt be bothered with staggered!! Looks hot, but........ lol
The bronze TE37s will look great on the WB dont worry
13 weeks? thats really quick!
Well 3 weeks from now is close to end of the year... damnnn lol
