new pics, need wheel ideas.

So my rh evo's kind of bit the dust, so I'm back on steelies. I'd like some ideas on what I should go with for my next wheel choice. Looking to stay 14 or 15 inch with a low offset (between 10 and 25). Lightweight is a MUST. Thinking maybe volk te37's in bronze or some spoons. Anyway...on to the pics.

@5speedwonder: you never sold your car? honestly it's really one of my favs! i would go with dark wheels... könig minuz or Enkei RPF1 in gunmetal would be killer if you want something more colorful... i would go with a bright lime green!

nope, never sold it. Had a lot of interest, but a lot of flakes so I'm going to keep it. Got some turbo stuffs on the way, ended up selling the blower to a friend, it was a bit oversized for the fit anyway. I was definitely thinking about the enkei rpf1, gunmetal or matte black finish.

Thanks for the props by the way, I've put quite a bit of work into the car.

good luck finding sw388's in 15inch, 4x100, and 10 et... i remember one of the socal guys had low offset slips so at least you know there's a knock off wheel in the spec you're looking for.

iirc, kosei k1's also have a pretty low offset wheel in 15x7 spec.

if i were going with spoons i'd use spacers, I know they generally come 35 or 40 i think. I've been looking at work s1's or s3's.

Was gonna say the same thing, I'm pretty sure Spoon wheels don't come in cool offsets.
