Another help me pick a wheel thread! I need to get new wheels within the next two weeks since I got a ticket for my rear tires being bald... so I'm going to just get the wheels and tires together.

Will be going on my Copper 6 which has DARK tints, and will be Nightshading the tails. Also, the BR lip with the valence thing painted black...

I was looking at the Kyowa KR-210 with +45 Offset (look like the PIAA FR-S):
Gunmetal:

Black:

Or the black ALT X-Factor with +42 Offset (Look more like the VOLK SF-Challenge):
[attachment=29933:alt_xfactor.jpg]


What do you think?!?

If there are any other similar wheels (5 or 6 solid spoke) I'm open to suggestions...
THANKS!

Thanks.. yea, thats the one I was looking at first till I ran across the ALTs. The inner lip might make it look smaller, but the pictures I have seen so far (like on an Evo) look niice.

I just wish I could find a picture of the ALT in black on a car. I know MrTea had them, but I can't see the pic in one of his old threads...

Wow that's weird, I've been looking at the Kyowas for about a week now and i'm like an inch away from buying a set. Where did you find the offset? The only site I found that sells them didn't provide the offset.

1) ALT's

Those alt's look sic! They are somewhat similar to my TenzoR GT-05s but I don't have that extra inner checkered flange thing.

The offset I got from this page:
Kyowa KR210

At the top of the page, the item is : KR210.18.7.5.5x114.3.45.73.1.blkwpl
So I figure: 18 x 7.5 5x114.3 ET+45 Hub: 73.1
Black w/ Polished Lip

And the cheapest I have found online for the Kyowa's are $149 each from www.victoriatire.com

The ALT's are $139 each from the same site.

I haven't found any local wheel place (Miami, FL) that sell Kyowa or ALT, mostly from California but thats not a surprise.

The ALT's are sick. I think I finally know what rims I'm getting. Imma look around and see if I can find a connection that has them in stock, if I find anything I'll let you know zoom. But man, imma have to jump on these, I hope you don't mind lol..

Good find.

btw: I'm look at the site you showed for the ALT's but in doesn't say the offset.
