I just bought some Enkei Kojin 17x8 +35 in matte black and some 235 40 17 tires. Supposed to have them Thursday.

I'll let you guys know how they fit. I'm thinking 5mm spacer up front to clear Brembos, but who knows. My car's on Pedders so it won't look like the cars in this thread. It may end up looking full retard.

Those wheels are sexy as hell cause of the concavity but I don't think the 8" have much of a concave look to them

The reps aren't too bad. It's just I screwed up and put a 235 35 18 on an 18x9 +35 rim on pedders. Miles of gap. I think if I put my 245 40 18 NT05s on them they'd look a lot better. Meh. I'm selling them to a guy who's gonna put them on an 8th gen Civic Si.

Hopefully they have some. At least noticeably. If they don't look good, I'm gonna go with the Enkei PF01SS in black with the chrome lip size 17x9 +35. Should've done that in the first place for only $300.00 more. Just noticed them a tad too late.

You want to go wider than 9.5? You can get 18x9.5 +15, +30 and +35 right now in 5x114.3. You can get 17x9 +35 in 5x114.3 right now also.

Honestly what I think it is is that our platform has a lot more peoe who actually have power they need to put down as opposed to the typical stance crowd.

You gotta find those things fast dude. I'm debating on doing those XXR 535s instead of 530's cause of the 5 spoke and I want to see how a sexy concave 5 spoke looks being wide and stanced.

Cozy Styles. They sell on eBay and Amazon.

Enkei Wheels, AEM Cold Air Intakes items in Cozy Styles store on eBay!

I pm'd them and confirmed they were in stock. They said the rims are in stock and should take only a few days to arrive. We'll see.

$820.00 shipped. Probably not the best deal but.... meh.

820 shipped isn't bad for 4 wheels. Even going the cheap XXR route it's still 650-700 shipped for a 17x9.75 or 18x9.-9.75 so really not that much more for a more expensive wheel and probably better built.
