Here pretty soon I'm going to need to pick up a new set of wheels. What do you guys think would look good? I've been leaning towards a mesh design of some sort, but they're kind of busy looking and I'm not positive about it. I also like the SSR Integrals, but can't find any of those anymore. Any suggestions or ideas? Feel free to chop this pic, it's the best I have from the side.

 

you get your engine rebuilt already? your paint color + color of your rims is sick, whatever you do keep the darkish wheel color...

 

What is your budget? Do you like mesh? wheels with lips? 5 spoke? Color? Light weight?

I've always been a big fan of the Enkei RPF1's. Very light weight and the price is pretty damn good for a quality light weight wheel.








Not sure if the RPF1s will match your S8 99 spec theme though.



How bout some CCW's? Very expensive but badass.







How bout some Works?




Gram Lights?







I think these are SSRs





Spirit-R BBS wheels?





Not sure if these are Work or Volk meshies... I think they're Work Rezaks?




BBS meshies









OK... I hope that helps


THere are two big threads you can look at for ideas:

I'd go with the Spirit R BBS wheels...that would look really good.

 

I'd like either a silver color or gunmetal, trying to shy away from completely black, but I do like the CCW's. Those Volk/Work mesh wheels with the lip are nice, but like I said, there's a lot going on there. Here are a few I've thought about, but I was just looking for a fresh perspective to see what you guys thought.

 

I like silver wheels on blue...I think those two colors compliment each other very nicely. Black/blue just doesn't look right to me, even with a polished lip

 

those wheels are not volk or work meshies they are Enkei Aegis. as for what would look good I prefer the mesh. Work wheels ,CCW, BBS lm etc. stepped lips are nice but some don't like it. some five spoke wheels are nice but I tend to lean towards mesh.

 

enkei rpf1 baby!

 

Your car looks really good, btw, Merlin.

 

Thanks! She's gutted at the moment. Getting a new engine.

 

How about something like this...

 

Missed your post the first time. No, not going with a rebuild.... I've tried to keep it hush hush so that people on here won't throw stones at me, lol. It's currently sitting in Greg's garage with the heart ripped out of it. As far as rims go, I like the silver Aegis', but those gunmetal Volks I posted under the CCW's are really nice too, I like the dark look since all of my accents are black.

 

CCW's also come in other colors. I also like silver on blue like what Sprockett said.

 

RPF1 FTW...

 

not sure of your price but look at Jline, advans, forgeline. they have some good looking wheels as well. nice color by the way.

 

ive always loved the mesh look, here are advans on my car: (nice 4"lip with +46offset)

 

I think the RPF-1's look the best. If i had an FD thats what i would run.

 

+1
those wheels are
