Default New Wheels for TypeR 599

Well recently I've been looking at my jdm 16's, it dawned on me that they looked too bland and common. Well my friend was selling his 18" RH C2 and I don't know any other R's with these, so I bought them.

here are some pics
18X7.5 all around







Let me know what you guys think!

They're heavy, but they look nice!

I assume these are for street use, in which case

PM me if you are looking to sell the 16's

If you want recommended tire pressures, ask George.

Give the guy a break. As long as he is not tracking the rims I see no harm. Bling for street use is okay in my book, just not on the track. All you guys dogged me when I had my 17 inch Le's and told me to get smaller rims. Do what you want man.

Ew. Wheels look too "German" for a Hype R, IMO.

And 18"? Gadamn. Hope you bought some torque to move those bitches.

No one is getting my 16's

I gained 5wtq from tuning. it helps. these weigh as much as my 16's, and less than my old 15's with azenis. all measured by how much atp I used to pick them up.

IMHO The rims are a little too big. I can deal with 17's but 18's are too big. IMO Of course it is your car so if you like them then hell "Rock On"

Sell the 18s and buy some track time.

I guarantee you'll enjoy the track time far more than the 18s.
