Congrat. Looks good! Would look even better in flat black.

i wish you can take another picture from the back -- but at almost ground level to see the tread/footprint on those cool tires !

looks nice !

[detainu]

Ok, i'll take one tomorrow for ya

[OrbitalEllipses]

Wanted them until "Manufactured in China." Personal preference; good-looking wheels nonetheless.

[detainu]

Thanks, I was just trying to keep the weight down and change it from stock

[MarkMash]

Great shots! - looking at getting some Enkei's myself - wondering is your suspension stock??

Cheers! congrats - still waiting for mine :P

[detainu]

Ya, it's still stock. Waiting for Eibach to finish up springs to drop it down

[Phaedrus29]

Those look great. Do the 225/45's fit without issues? I'm not sure whether to go with this size or 225/40 or maybe a 235.

[detainu]

Hey thanks. I mis-spoke in an earlier message, they are actually 225/40/18

[Asterisked Accolade]

Those look very good-- i think they make the car look even more expensive. They remind me a bit of Dodge Viper Wheels:

Only the Viper has fewer/larger spokes.

The car looks good and those are the same wheels I was planning on getting before I got some Gram Lights for a killer deal.

Not sure how much anyone knows about wheel dimension, but you couldn't just get those same specs in a different brand wheel for eg. the WORK CR kiwami in the same 'spec numbers' because it's a different design correct? I'm wanting to get these or the Enkei PF01's but want to make sure it's the same fitment as this car - TOUGH AS!!! haha

It would just depend on the sizes and offsets offered in the style and brand of wheel you're looking at.

to darrendriven:
I just bought the exact same tire wheel combo, except i have toyo proxes 4 not the plus version. I am noticing that the car is a lot less responsive than the stock tire wheel combo from the factory. Are you noticing this? Also when you turn the wheel back and forth at lower speeds the vsc kicks on. Any ideas?

Thanks for the pics...looks great. What'd you use to lower the car and how much?

That's the Eibach Pro-kit. It's a 1 inch drop
