Default My turn for wheel opinions.

Ok well as some of you know I'm buying Leigh's (urvtecs2slo) EK. It's VSM in color and I plan on painting both the lips, sideskirts and moldings silver along with tinting the windows black.

Here are my choices:

Black 5zigen FN01RC's. What more can I can I say. They're black and are sick wheels, but more and more are popping up.


Silver Enkei RPF-1's. I've loved this wheels since the day I saw them about 5+ years ago, but I'm just unsure.


Bronze or silver Gramlight 57S. I REALLY love these wheels and have since I saw them, but I'm not sure if they'd look good in bronze of silver.


Keep in mind I want something a little different or else I'd just go ahead and go with the FN01R-C's.

Thanks in advance.

And FWIW I can get the Gramlights for the same price of the RPF-1's (both without tires) or the FN's with tires.

Gab sports rims would look good. Gunmetal with a polished lip. I can even sell you a set. I do like all the rims you have to choose from though.

I'm a huge fan of the RPF1 and they definetly aren't a lot of sets in the area. I'm crossing my fingers that you're going with a 16" wheel/tire setup.

I'll be back with some additions for ya.

How much for the Gab's and what size? I'm more than willing to buy *REAL* wheels, but I can't drop over 1K for a set. I'm sure that's what your price is too. But hell shoot me a PM with info for the hell of it.

15's sorry Corey, but I like the way 205/50/15's ride especially since soon I'll be having a 2 hour roundtrip commute everyday.
