I think it looks very very nice indeed.

You may want to fix that dent on the passenger door at some stage. It is showing on the photo

Those are clean, where did you buy them? I've only really seen them on Tirerack but I know they're out there on other sites... plus Tirerack only likes weak offsets.

Its weird that I can't find these offset when I ordered last year, Titanium black or Bronze, nothing comes up in 18 x 9 +32, they said pre-order it.

They have it in stock now?

Have you put GSD3? Those things are 45 lbs all together!

It is shown here on their website 18 x 9 +32. Was told that the offset fits an Evo. Apparently.

I have the Falken FK 452 on them. No idea how much they weigh though!

Where did you guys buy your Wedsports wheels in the U.S.? I know Tirerack has them, but they don't have the style I want in the size I want. I really like the SA-70. If anyone has any info that would be great. Thanks.

WedsSport SA70 Grey

I've been looking for some SA70 18x8 in grey et 40 and Kyle at Tirerack said most of the SA70's have been discontinued that's why they only have the bronze or chrome look left. He also didn't recommend the et 40 but that should be fine for our car shouldn't it? Tire Rack is no longer carrying the SA70 and they only have a few left. You will have to order them from someone. I got mine ordered thru Evasive Motorsports and will take a couple months to get.

18 x 8 +40 is fine, but you can custom order the size you want, I recall they told me it will be around 2 months.

Yes, just order them direct (which Tire Rack should do), my SA70tt took 10 weeks from order to delivery.

Jaii13, thanks. They look awesome.

Cheers

I know this is an old thread but... Looking into getting a set of these wheels myself. Anyone know where I can get these for a good price?

Also, Jaii13 and Takahashi..any updated pics of your beast wheels?

That is some serious offset for the rear. Considering I am already need to roll guard... an extra 1/2 inch out will need more attention. Good looking and effective when it is done though.

Do you know there is 9" available in the Civic Type R series? They are 9" +35 which I think I am going for when my car is the track car, but now you show me that you can fit a 9.5 in... I have second thoughts.

Here are my photos from last Sandown.
