Help me decide between these 2 wheels... - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

Can I get your thoughts on these?

Work Emotion XT7 (Gunmetal)
18x8.5 +38/18x9.5 +38

or

Rays Gram Lights 57Xtreme (Matt Graphite)
18x8.5 +33/18x9.5 +40

The 57Xtremes are becoming increasingly common with the twins, and haven't seen too many with the XT7s.

The XT7s are cheaper, too.

Which offset do you think will provide the better fit? Running Eibach Pro Kit, no camber.

So confused!!!!

I'll confuse you even more.
Have you looked at these from Melbourne[I think] RSO and RST

No specs on that site. Don't mind the RSG, though.

I like the XT7's, the Takuma's are blatant Advan copies...

They admit they are copies. My nephew bought a set and they are very well finished. They claim they are made in Japan. If they are, the price is amazing.

I tend to associate the 57Xtreme with the twins (I wonder why) but I think the XT7 would look good as well and be less common.

Be different. Go with the XT7s.

I think the 57Xtremes are the sexiest wheel out there for the car, but as most are saying they are becoming very very common. Id go with the others, and since someone said they are cheaper than the 57Xtremes might have sold me on them as well. How much are they?

Who cares if 57xtremes have become common, they look absolutely amazing on our cars! Go for it!!

Work, they look a bit more unique than the rays.
