    The Grids and P45R are supposed to be better at fitting under BBKs since they have more offset clearence farther away from the hub.

    332s yes. When I was checking the Enkei's with the template it was so close to the wheel weights stuck on the inside of the barrel that it could possibly rub. I'm sure it was fine. The barrel design didn't help either. The 17" FN01RCs had more clearance but I sold those wheels. I think I may go with a set of 18s for the 265 Hankook tires I have here and then maybe next year a set of 17s with some slicks for the track. I need to do a full restoration underneath plus a full 5-speed swap before I hit the track. My 3rd gear grinding 6-speed right now is unbraced plus I much prefer the 5-speed. I already got a Quaife front diff now if only I can splurge for the SCE center diff too.

    I change my mind too much it's terrible. I was looking at some Rota Torques 18x9.5 +35 offset. I want an aggressive concave spoke design. What I'm really diggin' right now is the Wedssport SA-55M. Until I saw the gloss black/blue combo on a few cars I liked it but the blue is too much/ricey looking. I can't decide if I like the matte black or gunmetal color better on a white stealth. They're pricey wheels too ~$2k so they'd have to be my full-time wheels if I was going to justify that much. I want to keep the GT-Cs though plus have a 17" wheel with slicks. Decisions... and money.








    Maybe I'll wait until someone on EvoM posts up a set for sale.

    That evo is tuff. And the torque, grids, and p45rs are affordable But every other set of wheels posted aren't lol. Advans and te37s are like 1k a wheel .

    I'm thinking I should keep the 17" wheels for future use. $1k in slicks I'll have to think about if I don't see more than a few track visits a year. That seems kind of silly.

    I'm still definitely getting a set of 18s.

    Anyone else? I sold a few parts so I'm contemplating getting some wheels but it isn't at the top of my list right now given I have pretty decent tread on my 19" tires still. I may do Ray's head lift fix and get the DR-950 rebuilt.
