New Wheels

One of my favorite wheels are the SSR Type F.

Good cost, VERY light... tons of offsets/widths available.

NICE CALL! Those are sharp!
From what i've seen from some of the "other" replys I'll have to be more specific.
I've been working on cars for a VERY long time. Being of an engineering background I have difficulty relating to measurements for offsets, width and diameters given in "gay", "ricey" or "faggy".
My main concern is performance. I couldn't care less what a playstation generation kid thinks of my car or my wheels.
Although it'll be primarily driven on the street and maybe go to the odd show here and there it will be used for trackdays too so acceleration, braking and handling are key. I certainly don't want anything rubbing.
Although I really appreciate the input on the styling and what may be out of style I would also really be interested in anyones experience with offsets and sizes that will yield the best performing results.

Thanks guys!

If your concern is base on performance, go with forged wheels.

Anything with lesser offset will give your car a wider wheeltrack which will make the car more stable during corner. So +38 offset is not very performance oriented. Try look at what most track guy runs. On GTR, they are usually 17 or 18s with width of 9 to 10.5 with offset between 20 to 12.

SSR Type F is nice but I am more into the Type C RS look!!

Thanks Charles!
Thats exactly the kind of info I'm looking for. So there is no problems with rubbing either wheel well openings or full lock turns?

GTRs have a lot room in the wheel wells and are able to run some pretty low offset wheels without issue.

The enkei rpf1 are the best bang for buck IMO

18x10.5 +15 ftw

WedsSport SA-70 18x10 +18!

Dooooo it.

If you are on a limited budget, Work Emotions are your best bet.

Of course there are the XD9 and CAI, but also the 11R are a great choice as well.
We sell them for about $1640 CAD per set in 18".

question for charles, do they make LMGT4s in a 17x10 and/or bigger sizing?

[C-unit]

not for 17s but in they do make 18x10.5 +15.

There are not much monoblock in 17s that is 10.5. They only one I can think of is SSR type C RS. And the only 17x10 I can think of is TE37, CE28, the Type C, Type F.
