Replica CE28N's ?

hey guys..

I've been focusing on my FD far too long and the poor FC has been neglected...

i'm trying to bring back it back with fresh paint, new lip spoiler and rear wing...

anyway I would like to get some wheels for it

and think Bronze CE28N's would look amazing on a white FC

but I can't justify that kind of money for the car..

does anyone know of a replica in 17 or 18"

thanks

Nice thing about this company is that they post pics of the exact wheel you get for the listed size. 18x10 and some of the lower offset 18x9.5 have a nice concave design.

Strong
Light
Cheap

Pick any two because you aren't going to get all three in a wheel.

Rotas are heavy

Rotas are weak because real CE28Ns are forged.

Forged > High Quality Cast > Southeast Asia cast.

Price is (as well as everything else) is relative. RPF1's are not cheap if you are looking at Exel wheels, however they are bargain if you are looking at JLine.
