These aren't the Motegi Racing DV5, but they are the Motegi DV5s

Little pricey, I did them in 18's

ah yes... the website cobalt-addiction said "The stock LSJ spark plug gap setting is .045", and that works fine for the lower boost settings. As the boost increase, smaller plug gaps are required to prevent spark blow-out."

and

"Following are our dyno-proven LSJ spark plug gap recommendations:
2.90" to 2.80" supercharger pulley - .040" gap"

so i figured i'd gap mine at .040?? O_o

yeah this doesnt help me much with wheels but thanks all the same

well wheelsnext has those wheels at a good price, and that gap will lose you fuel economy, and being that they are 2 STEPS COLDER, not 1 step which they are referring too cchanges the ballgame. anyways i was just being helpful.
