First up, my wife's favorites:
MSW Type 16, Black with red stripe, 18x8: ![]() or MSW Type 11, 18x8 +35: ![]() And then there's my favorites: R-1 Racing Hype, 18x7.5 +40. Narrower, not sure about the offset though, but I LOVE this wheel: ![]() or Excel Ennio, 18x8, +35: *Edit* Just found these in gunmetal, this would be what we'd get, NOT silver.** ![]() Now, my favorite BY FAR is that R-1 Racing Hype wheel. The only drawbacks I have on it are the 7.5" width and the chrome lip. But.....the biggest concern here is the +40 offset on the 7.5" width. I'm almost thinking a spacer is going to be mandatory to keep it from being sucked too far into the fenders. My wife's favorite is the MSW Type 11.........which is clean, but I just don't like the wide black sections on the spoke bases. anywho, this is what we're looking at right now. Going to try to order something by the end of the week. This post has been edited by Fastbird: Mar 4, 2008 - 1:00 AM -------------------- |

Ok, since no one is playing, here's what we ordered. I found them, she loved them, I dig them.....just gotta see them on the car now.
![]() The only thing I'm going to have to do is paint the wheel hub black so that rust doesn't show through the unused holes......that or cap those holes somehow. Nice looking wheel though from the pics I've found. It's an 18x8 with a +37 offset which is really nice, but the best part is that for an 18" wheel, they weigh in at a paltry 21 lbs. That's barely more than my drag wheels for my trans am weigh that are 15x8 and spun aluminum. This post has been edited by Fastbird: Mar 7, 2008 - 11:48 PM -------------------- |
