Like- not love- '04 wheels so I am thinking about digging in the pockets for some cash to purchase a new set of rims. I think 5-spokers look great on the S, esp. ones that keep a close resembelence of the factory rims for '00 --> '03. Any suggestions on brands? Pics even?

Thanks!

 

We have a wheel called the SHuk WR1 that is a forged 5 spoke wheel with a polished lip that looks nice on the car and they are reasonably priced. They are 242.00 front and 299.00 rear. The wheels are 17X8 ET48 and 17X9 ET62.
Take a look and let me know if I can help.

 

I think they are cast. 19lbs sounds like a lot for Forged wheels.

 

and 300 bucks sounds rather cheap for forged wheels also.

 

IMO I would pick the SSR Proffesors, or the Works Meisters...Also the Volks GTC's are nice

 

The ASAs (Shuk) are forged. Using them for my auto-x wheels. Fairly light (~16-17 lbs) , good offsets and cheap. Clean look. I'd recommend them.

I love the SSR GT3s though. "Semi-Solid Forged" Dunno what that really means (they are pretty heavy ~24/25 lbs) but they look good IMO

Top two - ASA/Shuk

Bottom two: SSR GT3

 

SR Professors

 

Work S1 3 piece or SSR professor

 

I love the SSR Professor in Black Chrome

Liq- Thanks, bro, for posting the pics of the Shuk wheels. I think they look great on that silver S. Appreciate you taking the time to do that. Don't really know what the difference would be between cast or forged that are only a few lbs off from one another. Saving 20lbs in wheel weight cannot make a noticable difference I would think.

Anyhow, what the hell does forged really mean?
