17x9 that checks all the boxes?

[Chuckable]

I’ve been looking for a wheel that checks all the boxes and was hoping the collective wisdom of the forum would help me with any wheels I’ve missed.

Here’s what I’m looking for:

17x9
Clears Stoptech ST40 calipers with 328x28mm rotors (similar in size to OEM Brembos)
20lbs or less
Offset range of +38 to +42
Max of about $325/wheel
Readily available in a silver, charcoal, gunmetal, silver or similar finish (because my car is black)
Replacements somewhat easy to source

So far I’ve found:

Apex ARC8
~ $240-$260/wheel
17.8lbs


Enkei PF05
~ $315-$360/wheel
20 lbs as best as I can tell


SSR GTX01 (unknown brake clearance)
~ $350/wheel (center caps are extra $)
19lbs as best as I can tell


Mach V Awesome
$250/wheel
18lbs



Rays 57CR (unknown brake clearance)
~ $320-$360+ (center caps are extra $)
About 19lbs as best as I can tell
HS Gunmetallic color is fairly hard to find



Anyone know of anything else?

Edit: I’m aware of 949 Racing 6UL and Konig but just don’t personally like the looks of them.

Thanks!

I hear you. From what I’ve researched the early stigma against Rota wheels has largely dissipated. They look a lot like the Wedsport TC105N.

I got so much shit from the all Mighty wheel gods who are on the Facebook groups about them. I had two sets of them, one set with track tires and the other set with street tires. I liked them, never had an issue with them, and actually about a pound lighter than the overplayed rpf1s

I’m open to all options that fit my list. Just want to learn about what’s out there.

Thanks. I updated the first post about that wheel. Just don’t like the looks too much. And when 949 confirmed that they are out of production, I took them off the lost.

The 57DR in that size clears so the CR should as well.

Thanks. But I haven’t been able to find the 57DR in silver or gray?

57CR in HS Gunmetallic was an 86Speed color I believe, though I think by now other storefronts stock it (e.g. Kamispeed)

Thanks. I really like that style. But it’s out of stock everywhere I’ve checked and prices are $360+. Plus, no one has been able to confirm it will fit with the brake setup I have.

I am going to say it again. The 57DR CLEARS, so the 57CR should as well. If you want to double check this call a dealer that has both in stock in the same size and ask them how similar they are, as far as I can tell they are very similar and could even be same mold. The DR clears the ST40's by a lot, almsot 3/4's of an inch.

I just bought a set of the ARC-8. Every color except silver seems to be on backorder from the manufacturer, just an FYI. Best looking wheel in my opinion
