The attached show two wheels I am considering, staged next to my car to try to give some semblance of what they might actually look like on the car. The TSW (5-spoke wheel) is my top choice, but I think it's too dark (it's not available in silver--just hyperblack and chrome, the latter I think might be too shiny for me). The RS7 is my second choice, but I'm not sure it's that much better than stock. I'd be curious as to what others think.

bad post

you have to attach the pic using the buttons below the text window...

fredw1

Thanks. Didn't realize the pics did not attach until I posted. The pics I wanted to post are 1.2 kb, and the limit is 200 mb, so I need to figure out how to decrease the file size. Cropping got them down to 40%. Still working on it.

you can just reduce the image size with photoshop. it comes in handy around here.

Here you go...BTW ENkei are MUCH better quality than TSW FYI lighter too! but no 19s if your into that

ENkei RS7:



TSW 5 spoke:

you mean these or an older model (these are 05s):

fredw1

TSW Volcano. Here is the wheel. The one I was looking at is hyperblack. I like the Enkei, but am not a fan of multi-drilled wheels. They make a cap, but it has some bronze in it.

those look decent. What size and finish ?

fredw1

The Enkei RS7 is painted silver. The TSW Volcano comes only in chrome and hyperblack. I''m looking at 18 x 7.5.

truemagellen

I have another Enkei to recommend to you that is far lighter than the TSWs or the RS7s and same price or cheaper

truemagellen

Oh woops it isn't Enkei...it is even better: 5Zigen and INEXPENSIVE too if you know where to look : the fn01rc comes in many different colors options and the size you want :D



here another option, even less expensive...quality is unknown help me out guys: ADR Cypher

I would go with the 5zigen's I had those on my WRX and they were awesome. They were super light and super strong b/c I accidently hit a few pot holes and made it out clean.

fredw1

The FN01R-C is listed at $260 at Discount Tire Direct. I can get the RS7 for $148. Do you know of anywhere I can get the FN01R-C for less?

Mindtrip

There is a shop here where I got all my stuff for my WRX for and I got the 5zigens for an even 200 a piece and all the 5zigen lugnuts for another 30 bucks.

truemagellen

are you sure you can get the RS7 for $148 I bet you are looking at the 15 or 16" prices on those

fredw1

I have a written quote of $577 plus tax for four RS7s for 18 x 7.5. I'm getting mine locally, but Street Dreams http://www.streetdreams.org/display....RS7&fin=Silver has them for $165.

truemagellen

nice price!

i like the TSWs.. but that's just me :D .. Enkei's are also good in my book..
