FC's demand 5 spoke or mesh rims.

But, for the same look for less you can get wheels from Black Racing, very reputable wheel company.

I think RG's only look good on Hondas. Civics/Integras

that's true huh? there arent many 7's with those rims on... they're sick and don't really cost thaaat much... i see Evo's and STI's rocken them quite often... also on Integra's, EG's, EK's, and S2K's even... not really much on Supra's, 240's, and RX7's though... i wonder why?

maybe it's because of the FR layout... FR owner's seem to be after the staggered wheel set-up...
CORRECT

ask and you shall recieve

Black Racing (owned by Enkei) have some wheels that look the same and cost half as much, but they're still well-made racing wheels.

SSR Comp / Type-C's are also similar design.

^^^I don't think Enkei owns Black Racing. Arrow wheels makes them and are big in the motorcycle world. 5Zigen USA imports them to North America. I had them on my Suby!
Now I have Volk ce28's on my FD. Really wanted the RG's but they are discountined. The RG 2's well...not as nice

RG's look dope as long as you get the right offsets.

I see that now... I heard that Enkei had bought SSR so I guess I got them mixed up with 5Zigen in my head (since I didn't check my facts...).

Don't think of the Black Racing as a knock off they are a solid rim. As for SSR's they are really as good as you can get.
