rims are subjective man.. if you like them.. then kewl....

anyway Nitto NT450's suck.. what can i say.. when i bought mine.. i was a full time college student..and had to pay tuition and off campus housing, food, and support some other habits.. so i didnt have much choice in terms of tires (low on $$$)... i bought them and regretted it.. they suck.. they slip in wet, their not much better in dry.. you dont even have to be trying to peel out... give it some moisture.. or some sand.. and they'll be slipping like crazy too...

i guess $325 for rims isnt bad.. but do urself a favor if u do decide to get them.. and get better tires...

like i said. .what looks good is subjective.. but if you want my opinion.. your talking about the Enkei RS Evolutions (RSE) right? i think they look aight..

if i was to buy an Enkei rim.. i'd get the Zoku.. but again thats just my opinion...

well i dumped my Nittos for Dunlop SP9000's and i like them a lot... their grippy in dry, good in wet (i dont really drive crazy in rain tho.. i like life... and i like my car)...

im either gonna get another set of SP9K's or the S-03's next..

As far as looks go, the 01's win by a landslide. However, the 97's are the lightest GSR wheel ever produced. Contrary to popular belief that the 94/95 are the lightest.
