I just saved up and bought the 57xtremes. They're quite reasonable in the grand scheme, as compared to things like Volks...

I would say to save up and buy the real deal but if that is really not an option.
The Enkei Rajin is a similar look and comes in 5x100 in 18x8 with either a 35 or 45 offset. They cost around $250 a wheel and are from a real deal wheel maker. ![]() http://www.enkei.com/raijin.shtml# Compared to the $453 of the Gram Lights that is not bad. |

Thanks for the advice guys.
I'm just not seeing anything as lovely as the 57xtremes so I guess I have some campaigning to do with the wife. Haha. "I get these wheels and you can have a walk-in closet..." These wheels are gonna be more expensive then I thought. |

Good luck on your quest to get the Xtremes! I just paid for mine today, got Satin Black 18/8.5 and 18/9.5 with the red Rays centercaps, and the Ray's red lug nuts...I knew the wheels were gonna cost me but the damn lug nuts blew my mind...$200 for a set. Also wrapped the new wheels in Nitto Invo's so we'll see how they hold up. I also threw a bunch of money at KW V3's, Vorshlag camber plates, and Agency Power adjustable rear control arms...that's all suspension. Then I called up P&L Motorsports and bought their Stage 1 turbo kit with AEM true boost controller, 750cc injector upgrade, AEM wideband, P&L mid pipe, and P&L cat back exhaust.
One of the joys of being single I guess, but I envy those of you who do find your better halves. |

Bronze looks great but the red lugs kinda throw it off...black or even gun metal would be better on the bronze wheels, but thats just me!

Wow...those Konigs even have the pockets "machined" into them. You know what they say; Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery!
