Default Damn alloys issue again

I have no luck!

The kosei ones I wanted will not be in stock for atleast 3 more months now

so I ordered these instead and should have them in about 5 to 6 days.

Anyone used these? They seem to be very popular on the US forums

Enkei rims are very nice. Will be good to see how you get on. Keep us informed.

Those look very nice. Hope that the offsets & stuff are okay.

They are the rims I've got on my shortlist! Really nice, keeps the OEM link going too (if it mattered)!

Yeah offsets are good and weight is less than OEM 16's the other ones I wanted were even lighter than these and same design but I dont want to wait 3 months as I need to get my alignment done but I want to get new wheels on first.

FYI I have a set of Racing Hart CP035R's with new rear tyres on that are lighter than these if any one is interested. They look very similar to these!

I guess I should get my ar$e together and put a FS thread up

Oh and if your lowered , you will most likely have to roll your arches
otherwise they will rub.

With the enkei's that is.
