Recommendations for mesh wheels?
I want to get a set of mesh wheels for my FC. I want something in a 17x8 preferrably, 32-35mm offset. I cant seem to find anything that I can afford.. Now, Im not opposed to spending money on a quality wheel, but I just cant afford a $600+ a piece BBS wheel. Here is a picture of about exactly what I am looking for ( I believe it is a BMW 3-series wheel). Anyone have any suggestions?

After seeing the Enkei RPM2s on ilike2eatricer's car ( https://www.rx7club.com/showthread.p...5&pagenumber=1 ), I absolutely love em and 17x8 costs $285.99.

And I didnt even look for the cheapest one yet, this was the first thing that popped up in google.

CCWs are nice no doubt, but I dont think they make any FC friendly offsets. I could probably give them a call and have a set custom made, but once again, that would be alot more money than Im looking to spend. Id like to stay around $1000 for a set.

Does anyone know anything more about these?

They are Gewalt wheels, which I think may be a division of work? Im not sure, but all I can find is a few pictues here and there, or a website in Japanse. I havent been able to find anything about pricing, or sizes.

I'll 3rd the CCW wheel suggestion. I think they're $450 a wheel, and great quality. I'm not sure if they make them for FC's though.
I'm saving for a set now, I'm looking to get 17x9 front and 17x10 rear.

They're not cheap, but they *are* BBS quality and relatively lightweight.
And they look something like this.....
Here they are on the Beast from the East:
But, as stated earlier, they are a bit more than you are looking at spending. I got them from Wheel Source shod with Proxes and locking lug nuts (plus new lug nuts) for around $2700 shipped.
