thanks, yes I am using spacers

H&R DRS (drs - stud replacement) 20mm in the front
H&R DRM (drm - bolt on basically) 25mm in the rear

:iagree: partially on the wheels I love the look but keeping to the semi-OEM look I have I am thinking about going to the gunmetal Nismo wheels, not 100% but they are either the 12 or 13+ Nismo wheels. They are a little wider so I will be a little more flush even :yum:

IMO the price for the OEM sport and Nismo wheels are an awesome deal, it would be hard to find another forged wheel for similar prices.

Agreed, I'm currently looking at the gunmetal nismo wheels too, too bad our dollar sucks so bad....:shakes head:

and don't I know it well………:shakes head:

the dollar has not been doing well for quite some time now. this past summer when I was getting a lot of these conversion parts they were coming from the states and ya it hurt and converting currencies :icon17:

Nismo wheels definitely will look great! I don't mind getting a set and paint them same as 40th wheel colour

LMBmikeZ 04-27-2016 05:07 AM

So I am about to pull the trigger on a set of wheels this year......... but I am still torn between a set of gunmetal nismo wheels or a aftermarket set of either Work wheels or Strasse forged already have quotes from work just waiting to finish taking with strasse this week.....


I will also update later tonight with pics of my splitter project too, it is a work in progress but coming along nicely :tup:

here is the 6 spoke design I am considering (they will be either work or strasse forged)

I would be customizing them though but this gives the design idea.....

I vote Nismo wheels, hard to beat that weight/style combo...but I'm biased :tup:

LMBmikeZ 05-05-2016 09:17 PM

decisions.... decisions :icon17:

picking wheels is hard but I have been thinking that if I am going to spend the money on changing them I might as well go custom and get something I really want and will stick with long term.


( Click to show/hide )
I am seriously leaning towards one of these over Nismo's......

Work Zeast ST-1

Avant Garde F461

Strasse Forged (unreleased but same wheel)
