:naughty:....

Anyways...Im making this thread to get some brainstorming/ideas going for new wheels for my car....

they need to be 18" or 17"s....nothing bigger
i want them to be really high quality
cost is relatively not an issue
they need to clear a big brake upgrade(spoon or new tl type s brembos)
don't really care for excessively wide wheels with huge lips

there are tons of wheels i love but my only problem is that most of them don't come in 18" or would look silly if they did...I love the way my current ones look but i only have a couple MM of clearance

one idea i've been pondering is using the Work Emotion CR Kai in gunmetal...i've seen them on a dark Accord sedan and they look good...but they aren't very unique for the cost...

another option is i could get the SSR GT3's which would look identical to my current wheels...and their spokes are thinner(cause they are forged)...i would really like these...but you know how after building the car so much...i think i would want it to look a lil different on the exterior...so i don't know if im willing to spend $400 per wheel to get the same look i got now...

i also wouldn't mind these SSR Comps...they are nice...but i run into the same dilemma as i do withthe work emotions....they are too simple...and id rather have the jdm blinging work wheels than i would SSR's...

another direction i was thinking of going was with the time attack style volks...i really like them...but they are such a fad...maybe if i still like it in a year or so i would think about it...but it seems all the knockoff brands are copying it...so i dunno

Can't go wrong with a quality wheel I would also throw in Jline in the mix. You can get them in 2pc or 3pc also, Visit the web site to see the line up.

Those wheels are played out and ugly, my friend had them on her EP3 for ever and now people are getting them I would never pay 3k for these wheels lol. It did not look bad at all on her car but it's to loud for me.

Here's her car.

I actually don't see a lot of time attack wheels. I see a lot of a black / polished lip BS. I dislike them very much, but time attack.. I would totally rock.
