The hp evos look GREAT! I had rpo1s on my last fd and i think the evos look better.Sorry, but spending 2-5 k for wheels for a 10-20 k$$ car seems like overkill.but its your money,spend away.

Don't get HRE's. They're incredibly heavy, and are like $2K PER RIM, at minimum. That's retarded, unless you have money you HAVE to throw away fast...

If you want some BLING wheels, I got a set of 18" Work Rezax I'm gonna be selling. They're freakin amazing man. B L I N G. Here's a pic from a diff car. PM me if you're interested.

Thanks

Here is a link to a red FD with Volk CE28N's. They are actually in hyper black, which is an optional color that costs more and takes longer to get, but it does look damn good. The standard colors for the CE28's are silver and bronze.

Rey, your car looks amazing with the gold GTU's. Gold kicks ***. I have a white FD and i wish i could get a photoshop of Gold GTU's on a white FD. I've considered them for a while.

TE37's are a great rim and I am very partial to Volk. It is a very light and good looking wheel that I am sure you would like.
