I wouldn't mind buying Enkei wheels, BUT, the size of 17x9 seems to be lacking. Does an offset of 45 work well for a 9". Does Enkei make special orders? Are there some wheels I just didn't see?

17x9 seems popular if you want to go 245-255's but 17x8 might be better for 235-245 tire sizes.

On-topic: The wheels I liked at first, TSW Donington 17x8 are pretty cheap on Modbargins. $650 and I like the look of them. A little heavy though.


The wheels I like now are unfortunately more, but look even better and come wider at 17x9. Enkei TSP6.


I think this is the 17x8 which isn't concave, but costs just less than 1k. The 17x9 are just over 1k, at $1,064.00 on tire rack. It's 200 more if you get the TPMS though.

If you are only looking for 17s Kosei are an affordable 15 lbs option.

Paid less than $1k for my Rays. Just have to have patience and wait for someone to sell a set.

Team Dynamics Pro Race 1.2 they are made to order which is nice to get the spec you want. These are 17x7 and I paid about 9 with shipping, now have a set of 17x9 on the way for a grand.

Bingo. I got my Advans for $500. After getting one repaired and now I am getting them powder coated I will only be into them $1075. I'll pics once I find the time to take them to the powder coater.

I'm still indifferent about running knock offs or not personally. To each their own.
