Well fortunately for the budget conscious shopper, Rota knocked them off and called them the "RT5".

It is crazy the number of wheels that are available for the Twins and so many suit the car. I like RFP1, Apex, Watanabe, several Rays..... sorry can't help as I am in the same predicament.

Sorry, I lied.

My absolute favorite wheels for the car are the TRD Tosco wheels.





But since only 3 sets exist (I believe that number is correct) pretty much none of us will ever get them. So I bought my 2nd favorite set, the Wats.

Yeah, I need to get aftermarket spring perches to lower my car a bit more, the OE perches add a lot of height. The coilovers are maxed out in the front on that 2nd pic in my first post. Gonna go somewhere between another .5"-1" lower.

It won't get quite as slammed as that other car, because it gets tracked.

There are many that are available for the Twins? I couldn't find any 20x12" that will fit flush with -20 camber when dropped 5". Probably you are kidding me.

I think the RP03 in SBC finish looks pretty snazzy on our car's. (This is not my pic/car btw!)

Would love to see a car rolling with a set of those installed.

My favorite wheels are the Rays Gramlights 57FXX, which I have on my car. I requested the silver-colored center caps with raised lettering (instead of the red center cap that comes defaulted) with the gloss black coloring of these wheels - I really love how perfectly (IMO) concave the 'flatter-faced' (not 9" + wide) version of these wheels are, and how well the center cap works with the wheel to make it 'pop.'

Here are a few poorly-lit images of them on my car -





My 'other' favorite wheel for our car would be the WedsSport SA10-R (especially with the blue finish), although I'm not a fan of the center caps that come with the wheel (nor the absence of any with it, as it just leaves a gaping hole.)
