Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
is a 8 inch wide rim really necessary on a street car tho? and they are like 12.4 lbs, which isnt bad for for being that wide. you have to buy 8 valvestems at $4.25 a piece.
sorry bro, i jumped the gun. (just watched the last episode of Jersey Shore so im feelin a lil Gangsta) I realize now what you were getting at. Thanks I have a set already. When i first read your response it came off like, "ehh I can get them played Rpf1s for $160, but im gettin me some baller *** 6UL wheelz." Totally took it the wrong way. I was at IA 07 i think when i first got my car running (with the fake Works) and a member on here pulled up next to me and said "Damn your car looks good, just need some real wheels now." That kinda got to me, so I sold the Konigs to my Dad and bought the Enkeis, brand new from Tire Rack. Think I paid $1250 for the bundle. Not a bad price, and I was proud I had bought them all by my self and not just put em on a Credit Card or whatever. I finally had "Real" wheels. Now everyone is like "RPF1s are so played out", but I like em, and I cant think of any other wheel I'd rather have. END RANT

Re: The Official EF Discussion Thread
You think 12.4 lbs. is heavy??? I'll be ordering my 949's any day now. Just need to get off my *** and do it. You really can't beat $700 for those wheels and v.stems. People have been beating on those wheels for a couple years now and they are solid.
With that said, I'll have FORGED Motegi track-lites for sale soon

I'd love to get some Avon tires 245/40/15's for the front, but I'd have to buy some 15x9 949 wheels too
