I'm looking forward to STX in 09. Just received my new wheels today. WedsSport TC005 17x9's, 15 lbs. A friends old RE01R's will suffice for the first few events. I'm excited about 2009!! Tire Rack just lowered the price on these wheels to $169 IIRC. I think there is only 1 set left so hurry up guys.

 

$169? Seriously?

What's the offset?

 

Offset = 42mm Tire Rack Part # TC5165LG

Miles is correct, 4 left in South Bend.

Chris H......resisting temptation myself....

 

So your gonna be in STX this year? Cool stuff, I'll be making my way into STU with all those STi's

 

damn thats a nice looking wheel for 169!!

 

Wow, I thought I got a killer deal when I paid $239 a couple months ago.

 

I bought 'em. That was too good to pass up.

I had been intending to buy the Kosei K1-TS, but out of nowhere they raised the price on the 17x9s by $100 a wheel. These are apparently lighter and even cheaper than the Koseis were before the price hike. Win.

 

^ Congrats Nick. Awesome purchase. If I can't find a used set of these in a year, I'll probably go with 17x9 Enkei's RPF1's which are 15.6lbs iirc...

Edit: They're 15.9lbs per Edgeracing.

 

white text tires are out

white text rims are in

 

Ha, indeed. To tell you the truth, they could be bright green and I would have bought them. I drive an RX8, so obviously I'm not terribly concerned with how my car looks. :p

 

I dunno, the brake dust should cover up the letters on the wheels pretty quick. If I get some F1 inspired Potenza stencils for the tires I can get a totally out of style wheel and tire package



In reality, I had a set of 16x7 of these on a Civic a number of years ago and I really liked them. When I saw that they were on closeout and fit the STX rules really well I couldn't pass them up.
