Thanks for any input! Looking to place an order within the next week or so.

I like the bemmers, but you will probably feel more safe on the weds

If you choose the TSW Nurburings @ATL BRZ has a set with tires at a great price for sale if shipping can be worked out.

Bremmer's all the way

What is your budget? The Weds are more than double the price of the Bremmers. If you have the budget for Weds get some Gram Lights 57xtremes. They are what the Bremmer's look is based off of and they are stronger!!

Some extra angles of the rims.

psyclone07 · 02-09-2014, 06:52 PM

Budget around $1500 for rims. I like the ray grams but for half the price the bremmers does the same for me. I know the ray grams are stronger but can't justify spending when they are so alike. (Flame suit on)

One thing I do like about the TSW is they are pretty lightweight and look good. Love the WedsSports because for some reason the black and WRB looks awesome in my opinion. Going with sti replica lip as well in future.

tennisfreak · 02-09-2014, 11:06 PM

Out of those 3 they all look good so I would go with the lightest.

TSW would be my choice.

Joe-G · 02-09-2014, 11:26 PM

Wedssports! But then again, Im a bit biased :P

Well what are you going to be using the rims for? Are you planning on tracking or autocrossing at all, or do you just want to get rid of the tiny and hideous factory rims?

If you are strictly doing street driving then there is no reason to the get the Gram Lights, just go with the Bremmers. I am in the same situation as you. I can't decide whether to get Rota Titans and see how they hold up while racing or pay twice as much and get some Gram Lights.

ericmpena · 02-09-2014, 11:44 PM

Bremmer or nurburgring. I don't care for the look of the Weds.

If it were me I think I'd go with Bremmer. A lot of people already have wheels that look like nurburgrings. Either choice is great. You can't lose. Does each wheel come in the finish that you want?

I understand!! They look great on WRB in my opinion. Not a lot of people have them around here either.

Mostly street driving. Will be using stockers for track or possibly picking up some rpf1 and or lightweight wheels in the future if I really get into it. These are just to look good for the occasional drive.

In my opinion the TSW is a contender because it has the best of both worlds. Great looks and lightweight. Wish they came wider though and with more aggressive offsets like the xxr 530!

Yeah they do. The TSW I would like in the matte gunmetal and the finish on the bremmers look good.

ericmpena · 02-10-2014, 12:15 AM

I looked at more pics and I'd go with Nurburgring hands down. The Bremmer don't look at good as I thought after seeing them in detail.
I saw more pics here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?p=999245

This pic pretty much sealed the deal for Nurburgring: http://trackforum.cl/forums/board/up...1350046182.jpg
