No. Doesn't work (no pun intended). There are better choices for an FD.

I believe Rishie is a dealer for those rims as well so if you are interested in one of their models, he could probably get you hooked up.

But they are more than Work wheels, so at that cost, wouldn't you go with Fiske or Kensis?

Your wheels are bad *** in your sig, wonder what it would look like on an FD.

I prefer the stepped lip they have, but that price range is up there. What is your budget for wheels and tires?

They aren't that much more expensive, but they are a custom wheel. So you can specify offsets and colors to you liking.

As far as Fiske or Kensis, IMO they have a more retro look to them. Not something I would want for that kind of money.

i would love to spend 500 on a set of wheels

i dont drive the car enough to care about a good wheel vs. a bad wheel. there just isnt alot offered in the size i need. i already have the tires so i just need wheels to fit them.
