Default Official Spoon CR93 Thread

Didn't see a thread for Spoon's new wheel, the CR93 so here is the start of one.

I've seen a couple NFRs with them on the site, but I believe I'm the first GPW with them. If I'm not, let me know and I'll edit this

I ordered the 8.5 +53 and 9.5 +63 setup, and I'll be adding 15mm spacers in the rear for a more flush look. Running 225/45 and 255/40 tires. Lowered on Swift Spec-R springs and Koni shocks on the upper perch. Just got the wheels put on yesterday; I'll be taking better pictures once the weather clears up.

These look fabulous at a couple angles (mainly the first picture and the one that black_EM1 posted). I'm not sure how I feel about them when mounted.. I feel like they have too many spokes. Maybe if they had one less pair of spokes it would be right at what I'm looking for..

edit: anyone know the specs of these?!

In the first pic it looks like the enkei SBC finish. Looks good!

I've already ordered the 15mm or else I would. Why didn't you like the 15s?

I think they're just slightly too aggressive, I kinda like keeping offset the same and having a 1inch difference in wheels front to rear. I had +40 offset TEs with a 7.5 up front and 8.5 in the rear and loved the ratio. With a 10mm it'll be a +53 offset all around and 8.5 front, 9.5 rear keeping a similar ratio to my old TEs.
