The only ones I've seen are:

Sport Max 006:

and

Tenzo DC5

I like the DC6's and the 006's, not so much the DC5's. I'll probably use these for auto-x. Has anyone seen any others that aren't butt-ugly?

DC6 will probably look the best on the specs, but I like the DC5 better. For a second I thought you were doing the vboard mod with the pinstripe on black stock rims :lol:

I, too, like the DC5's. But again my opinion is probably biased because I own a set of split 5 spokes. :lol:

I'm not diggin' the 006's. I think the entire lip being red is too tacky.

Also, from the looks of the Tenzos, the center cap won't fit. This may help you decide which one to go with. My Rotas are the same way. A little black paint will make quick work of concealing them better.

lip on a fwd high offset application looks ugly to me. i dunno, i love them on rwd applications, but for some reason looks wrong fwd.

and as far as the red black combo, you can powdercoat any rim to get that affect.

I think I'm gonna go with the dc6's.

Mel: What do you mean by the caps won't 'fit' ?

Exactly that. The caps won't fit. The rear dust cap sticks out a bit and the CV axle sticks out up front.

Lip looks great on jettas and golf :lol: but its not something you usually see on japanese FWD cars.
The red lip is going to a little off on a silver car though. It would work if the car is black or red. But I'm not sure about silver.

BLACK CARS FTW!!!!!

understatement, black cars pwn all, end of story.

also lips are for offset compensation, well originally. now everyone wants to look fancy and put their razr on the lip and take a pic.

if you want rims that are worthwhile, get some forged lightweight THAT ACTUALLY DO SOMETHING other than sit and look pretty...

im still on my quest to find out if motegi traklites will fit my car. 14.7 lbs for 17x7 isnt that bad =P

22lb stockers = ftl
