What's wrong with Ezzy Enkei's? Apart from the staggered set up, they look like they'd be good racing wheels. Those look similar to Advan's drift wheels except the spokes are split.

Thought I'd posted on this thread ages ago, but obviously not - wish I'd got the 20"s now, as the rears seem a bit small in 18"

I have the Mystro 18X9.5. Yours look great, it might be just an optical effect of the style.

Here is mine with 18x8 polished Eagle wheels and a 245/45/18 Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar EMT (runflat) tires. I got the wheels for $400 and the tires for $450 (I got lucky on ebay). All are brand new.
The tires sidewall are little taller than stock but it did fill the wheel well and it absorb alot of bumps. It is hard to pass a runflat tire at $112.50 each.
I will switch to 245/40/18 after the tires wears out and might lower the car.

I'm amazed at how many people have BIG HEAVY wheels, don't any of you guys go to the track? this seems mostly like a big pimpin thread, not too many light weight wheels, just the volks and the ssr's

^^depends.. most people buy rims for the look... (including me)..

i dont really want to mess with my new car warranty and risk my 37000$CNd investment when i could do it with a 4000$ Cnd 240SXand slap on some light 16s and coilovers and head to the track.. and have little worry.. (maybe even a SR20)

or an FC RX-7..

although this car is impressive in the STOCk vs STOCK handling department.. i bought it for its comfort and looks.. hence my plans for RIMS and BIG SOUND..

some people have deeper pockets can afford the bigger lighter rims (not me)..
