Hey everyone

I'm having an unbelievably hard time deciding on wheels. Im looking for 17s that'll fit stock tires(maybe 17x8?) and have an offset to get it as close to flush as possible. I need your help! I wanted the Enkei NT03 M but in SBC, those are harder to find than a needle in a haystack.

Ill be dropped on Eibach Sportlines and have a budget of around $250/wheel. Im shying away from black and silver, pefer just about anything else. Not a fan of XXR but will consider others.

Thanks!

No help?!

Go for some color! Anything looks good on white. Maybe some Red or Blue rims?

You could stick with Enkei and go for the RPF1 17x8 +35?

I know you said you weren't a fan of XXR, but I'm going to likely consider the 531 in 17x8 +35 when I receive my FR-S. I don't like most of their wheels either, to be honest, but I actually like these.

Enkei RPF1, PF01, NT03, but in SBC color, it is hard to get. Enkei has variety of offset option and one of the lightest wheels out there.
Sparco has some wheels with many different colors.
Konig has some interesting designs also.
Rota has many wheels with almost the same exact designs from well-known wheel makers (Weds, Works, Watanabe, SSR and so on)
Some BBS will also fit your budget (CF, CS5)

Sounds like you're looking for a Rota wheel with a somewhat aggressive offset in 17x8 basically, which shouldn't be a tall order for wheeldude.com

I'm not associated with them but have dealt with them in the past and know they keep lots in stock.

Klutch republic? Or maybe the wheels that Dynosty where using...Traklites I believe? There's also OZ racing for a little bit more.
