solid Matt! so no more RPM2's... bummer but I guess it's time for a change. Any ideas yet of what you are going to run for shoes?

I mounted up the RPM2s and it just doesn't go with the color anymore, so sadly they will be sold off. Was thinking Tenzo R DC-5 in either charcoal with a silver lip, or straight flat charcoal: I don't like the blue letters on the solid charcoal ones, so I might just end up getting a set of Work CR kai's and call it a day. I've still got a few weeks to decide. I think I've been hanging around the STi/EVO guys too much, I love the look of the CRs in an 18x9/9.5...

matt look into some of the new models rota has come out with. your car could definitely pull some of em off (torque, g-force, tarmac, boost)

Thanks Brent. I've seen the Rotas, actually had the Torques in the running for awhile, but they don't come with the 45mm offset that I want...or at least I couldn't find a place to buy them in that offset. Plus, they only start to look good (nice concave center) at the 9.5" wide level, which is unhappy on my DSM.
It's just hard to base everything off of a stock photo online...I would love to see some wheels in person in the exact size I will be running. I'd like to know the charcoal colors would work, wheel contour, etc. I don't want to make a $1500 gamble on something that I'm unhappy with.

i'd have to really think to come up with a 45mm that has minimal if any concave to it. here's a good example. 17" but this is how they will look give or take maybe 5-10% at best. www.xceedspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=114285&highlight=workif you search evom theres a gazillion evos with cr kais and until you get to a minimum of a 30mm and 8.5" wide they look like that. still hot wheels though. my vote, some sort of gloss or matte black te-37 style (real or knockoff)

Yea, I've been staring at pics of so many wheels, but haven't gotten very many replies as to what offset/rim width they are running. I guess it doesn't have to have a 45mm offset, I just don't want to have to roll the fenders, put on spacers, have rubbing issues, etc. i'd have to really think to come up with a 45mm that has minimal if any concave to it. here's a good example. 17" but this is how they will look give or take maybe 5-10% at best. www.xceedspeed.com/forums/showthread.php?t=114285&highlight=workif you search evom theres a gazillion evos with cr kais and until you get to a minimum of a 30mm and 8.5" wide they look like that. still hot wheels though. my vote, some sort of gloss or matte black te-37 style (real or knockoff)
