CE28s are sick. And not quite as overused as the TE37.

Yeah, screw 18's, go 20 or go home haha

Are those Gram Lights on that EK4?

those advans are beautiful! Too bad way out of my price range. CE28s ARE pretty, though. Similar to the what I'm running (15" Bronze Konig Heliums) just a hell of a lot more expensive. Child, didn't realize you're in Tejas as well. What part?

I'm gonna let cash flow decide for me after the holidays. This is just something I've been thinking about for awhile and I wanted you guys to help turn some wheels (get it, wheels) in my head.

I'm in H-town, but my head is in ogikubo-Tokyo Japan lol

I don't care about being cheap, and i don't want to have to trust the integrity of the wheel itself and then have to trust the work of it being widened. Plus modding a cheap wheel seems retarded to me. Like the wheel isn't worth the money to modify it
And I did forget that they were for the track. You're always looking for unique which is why I threw it out there, but safety definitely trumps looks.

What about just some RPF1's?
They have a horrible inner barrel design. There's a pretty large hump inside the wheel right where the caliper goes that make the bbk not fit.

Don't get some god damn over played rims.. My 2 cents worth of rice. And Pf01's are ugly IMO.
Overplayed has absolutely nothing to do with fitment. Like in my case, quite a few popular wheels are the only wheels that will fit, because they are designed with a purpose beyond mounting tires to and rolling. Im pretty much stuck with chasing a track oriented wheel due to my wheel sizing i want and the brakes.

well you can go 16s? bvut i know you want 15s
even if i went with 16's i'd still be close to the same situation because I would use larger brakes (minimum of 12" rotors with 4pot) still would want a 8" wide wheel and the unpopular 4x100 bolt pattern with a proper inner barrel needing to clear big brakes.

Just think about it, how often have you ever seen what i'm asking about? Most people have a skinnier wheel, smaller brakes, and larger diameter wheels. Not complicated, not impressive, and not as cool looking IMO.

Yeah, I didn't know you were choosing rims based on your brake set up.. Kind of sucks being limited to certain rims.
