if you haven't already made your purchase, look into rota wheels.. they are only a bit more expensive(maybe 150-200 more a set) and you get more selection in widths and offsets.. here's an example: http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/pro...products_id=88




edit: oops.. never mind i just saw two posts above..

the last one looks cleaner and has a better offset for an aggressive stance. but you already picked out your wheel so have fun with it.

Before you get deep into wheel decision remember one thing.

1. Tirerack and Discounttire have gay *** wheel fitments based on their "computer generated" systems.

Therefore you should set some baselines for wheel fitment and find something that corresponds in the styles you prefer.

18x8.5 +35 is ideal front and rear

18x8.0 +30 is also good = MB

Do not go thinner than 8" wide. SOOOO MOMO NO GOOOO...............

Super GAY SUPER SUNK.....

Enkei makes the SC05 and RS05 which are similar to what you've chosen.

Ray's Gram Lights also has similar wheels

Work Emotion XD-9's are also an option.

There's some reputable Japanese brands for you to check out.
