Default Enkei ES tarmacs

Found a shop in Japan that will ship them to me, but for $400...thats almost what I would pay for all four rims. Anyone know of a place that imports these wheels? I like them cause they are simple and light weight. Already called enkei usa and they cant get them.

Well...

yes that's about 10 times what it would cost to get them shipped in the US, but I guess for the exclusivity and your own fondness for the wheel, it might be worth it. Heck, a single 16" SW388 goes for 400 bucks, so if your wheels are a lower cost than that, the hit might not seem so hard.

Who knows--an importer might mark the wheels up condiderably anyway. You'd still have to pay for shipping on top of their markup.

I'm just trying to put a positive spin on it.

Interested in 15x7 or whatever the size i need in 15's for a 92-95 civic. Are you implying you know where to get these puppies? Also Frank, what spring rates are you running (eibach's right) and do you use the same spring rates for daily driving and track driving?.
