That pretty close to what you are after, and for a very reasonable price too.
Unfortunately RE30's didn't make my top 3. For some reason they look better on the web than in person on our car. CE28's are much nicer Volks.

No doubt. Somebody gets my rationale on offsets. You can't go back if you roll fenders.

I dunno, I just don't see the issue with rolling the fenders. You're gonna rub on the plastics anyway if you go any lower or run 255's.




As for the STI pics, I dunno, I like lippy wheels. I wouldn't do it since I have to cut up the fenders, but still.
Oh I like lippy wheels, I don't like "LETS PUT BLACK WHEELS ON EVERYTHING BECAUSE WE HAVE NO STYLE".

His aversion to rolling his fenders (I believe) stems from th fact that he has a low mileage (I think), no daily driven, limited edition CR, and he would like to retain it's resale value is and when a time comes that he needs to sell it. I get his point of view, I also get rolling your fenders and running the widest possible wheels with the super fresh concave faces.

Both sides of that argument have their merits. I personally am of the opinion that if you're willing to track your car and possibly write it off as a total loss on day than should just roll the fenders and run the wheels that you want with as much tire as you can, but again, that me. Retaining your cars resale value is also an important goal for some people. That's why mine never leaves the garage.
The other part of the reason is that I just don't want to change the look of my CR and if I want to ever being it back to stock I would not be able to do so easily with rolled fenders. I don't care much about resale value as I don't ever plan on selling the car in the near future. Infact I've thought about buying another AP2 possibly in the near future when prices go down a bit for low mileage versions. When that happens I will go all out with a fully built motor and Turbo kit without any compromises.

I wasn't even paying attention to color. I'm really wanting some RZ-DFs in not damn black (getting real tired of black) but the other side of me is just saying to paint my wheels.. But they're limited edition time attacks... what does i do?

Also the other issue, is if I get some 18x10 18x10.5 it's going to need camber etc and I don't want to reduce functionality and I don't want to widebody.

Wow 10+45 looks a lot nicer than 9+35. 255's seem to fit better too. I I had those, I could of probably went lower.
