Smile got my new wheels in today...

SO I finally SOLD my Volk LE37 and picked these up.... was gon go with M Sports with a 3 inch Lip. that SportmaX makes them, but my friend said that they had this new style so I decided to go with them .. they're coming out @ the end of Feb. but a friend of mine got his hands on 2 sets.. one for the FD and other for his 240. 4 lugs.

I love the lip on this thing..
hopefully i'll hav them on by tomorrow
but eventually i'm gon get the spokes power coated Black.

and they weigh 26 lbs.

18x8.5 front

18x9.5 rear

35 ofset i believe.

I say leave the wheels as-is, they look pretty nice. Black spokes are so played out . Are you running some decent power to compensate for that added weight? I noticed that when switching between my Fikses (which are lighter than your new wheels) and my stockers there was a noticeable difference in acceleration due to the weight and gearings. Also, what tires are you thinking about getting?
