To each his own and it's your money and car but....

Those are knock offs of a wheel called Desmond Ragamaster. The real deals will be more expensive for sure, but remember the three rules of buying wheels: Light, Strong, Cheap, Pick two.

Your wheel setup is my ideal wheel setup, man. Absolutely beautiful. What specs are they? Where can you find Regamasters? Last I heard they aren't in production anymore...

Oops, sorry I didn't mention it, but that's not my car. Mine sits on 17x10 +48 CCW classics with 255/40's all around. Ragamasters are attainable, but they're getting tough to find these days.

I think that car was owned by a user by the name of Farkel. .

Oh nice! I'm assuming you had to roll to fit 17x10 +48 up front?

Honestly I think those wheels look great even if they are knock offs. At 23 pounds they are probably the cheap and strong type, but not lightweight. Nothing wrong with that necessarily except some performance penalty. I have 24lb wheels on my FD and it doesn't bother me because it lets me run wide tires.

Unfortunately they don't have any offsets that are FD friendly. Highest offset +35 will still probably rub all but the most narrow 255 tire without a fender roll & pull, and camber.

They suggest a +12 offset for the FD in their chart which I would love to see someone attempt on stock fenders.

You really don't have to have a 10" wide rim for 255. And 17x9 +48 with 255/40's will fit without rolling
