Thats true, definitely need to get those rear brakes done haha. But it'll look good no matter which ones you get. And if you become like anyone who's into the stance game, you'll probably start trading wheels for other wheels and swap them out every 6 months haha

don't buy vossen when the rest of the wheels look exactly the same and are half the price.

I agree. Also anything but black.

Not trying to bash your choice or anything though, I'm just trying to be constructive. Did you have any other style in mind?

If I had to choose though, I'd go with the stance ones just because they're the only one with a slight lip. Those spokes on the others going all the way to the edge have a good chance of getting scraped

Ya i hear ya man I wouldn't have posted this thread if I didn't want criticism... As far as wheel designs go I've never been a fan of multi spoke wheels.. i really just like the simple 5 or even 6 spoke design...just my style I guess.. different strokes for different folks haha..


And ya i like the Vossens but the others are a little cheaper for sure.. i am kinda leaning more towards the Rohanas and the Stance

ASA = BBS.

those are going to be the best "quality" of all of those wheels, FYI.

otherwise the STR are the best looking. minor details really kill some wheels for me. STR is a knockoff brand, though...

The ASAs are better quality? Elaborate please...

vossen, despite being a "high end" wheel are actually known for having sub-par quality. sad, i know.

ASA is a subdivision of BBS so they're going to have a good quality standard.

the remainder of the wheel companies listed are knockoff companies with questionable quality. either way there are tons of people running around on XXR wheels in the world so you'll likely have no issues with whichever set you go with. but...being me, i like to make educated decisions based on some research even if it means paying a little more to make sure the parts i'm buying are what i really want.

You should know 18x8.5 +45 isn't going to be very concave, if that's what you're looking for.

you'll need at least a 9.5" wide wheel with a +30mm or less offset to get some deep concave.

can i stir things up a little and show you my favorite wheel right now?

enkei RS05RR:

Another vote for anything but black.

Good info Bio! Def food for thought and I need to research these wheels a little more to see what people are saying about them.

Jomamma I they are all 19's I'm not looking for 18's.. i already have a set of 18's lol

Bio ya i was thinking about running 9.5 but wasn't sure if they would fit...also I kinda like that Enkei wheel and it is black

they only come in 18s, though.

What only come in 18s???

... oh the Enkei that you posted?

yes, only in 18s. and to get that R face (the deep concave) you basically need 10" wide wheels with a fairly low offset.

I mean to say 19

Ya I know they won't be like super concave like the Audi and bmw guys can run but I just like the simple 5 spoke design of wheels and I want a little depth unlike running some saleen or corvette wheels.

Bio you think I could get away with running a 9.5 wheel? I know some of them I can get them in like a +20 or +25 offset

Jomamma did you just buy some 18×10??

yeah, sure. why not?

Haha why not then lol if I need fender pulling eh time to pull fenders haha

I dig #3 nice and simple
