    Default What do you guys thing about Enkei?

    I'm lookin for some new shoes ... I really like the black/anthracite w/ polished lip look and I found these for pretty cheap:



    What do you guys think? I can get em in 18x8, but I'm not sure if that'll rub in front w/ a 1.5" drop.

    On the right offset, no rubbing. You gonna run 225/40/18 tire in front? If so no issues.

    yeah yeah yeah ... I'm just lookin at my options .. I could always go w/ fliks or something but I want a wheel that's at least 8" wide. I'm not sure they have many to choose from

    edit: nevermind. they have a few. a bit on the heavy side though.

    Japanese wheels on German car?

    15 in BBS mesh with crazy offset. That shit looks good on VWs.

    japanese stuff is cheap ... and my wallet's a little on the slim side for the time being. If I could afford some Brocks or Tracers, I wouldn't hesitate. Those things are hawt.
