tC_vixen New Jersey, US	As some of you might know I just finished installing my Tein S-Techs. Anyway, after doing so, I thought about it and came to a conclusion that my car needs a new set of wheels for my new sexy drop.. lol Should I get 18's? or should I just stick with 17's? I really DONT want ANY rubbing. I want to be on the safe side. And what offset should I get? What is an offset anyway? Is it the width of the actual tire? or wheel? Which Rims would look best on my tC? Raze R74 18x7.5 R1 Racing 18x7.5 Kobe Viz5 18x7.5 Drag DR8 18x7 Drag DR25 18x7.5 ASA JH8 18x7.5 ASA AR9 w/ 3 Different Spoke Inserts - no insert - red insert - cf insert - chrome insert CLICK TO DONATE & HELP MAKE THIS WONDERFUL SITE OF OURS BETTER!

andino Manhattan Beach California, US Godlike Advisor	What's your price range? Also deff gold rims edit: What offset you need depends on your wheel size and tire combo. Offset is where the rim will sit in the wheel well. Are you in SoCal? Come to our CStC meets! Located in Socal? Need something Installed? Have a question and no one is willing to help?

Vicious Orlando Florida, US El Chupacabra	Looking back on my old rims, I don't think I'll ever get 17"s again. 18"s just look so much better on the tC! And please get some gold wheels for your SW! The Thread Killah

andino Manhattan Beach California, US Godlike Advisor	I like the single blade 5 spoke ones and the 6 spoke ones. I was gonna see if I could get a deal for you but I wasn't sure what style you liked.

andino Manhattan Beach California, US Godlike Advisor	Enkei RPF1 - Gold http://www.wheelsnext.com...EI-RPF1-Gold%20Gloss.html Axis Reverbs - Gold http://www.wheelsnext.com...-REVERB-Gold%20Gloss.html Tenzo DC6 V1 - Bronze http://www.wheelsnext.com...ON%201-Bronze%20Flat.html I can probably get a deal for the Tenzo's but they only come in bronze. My favs are the RPF1s because they're good rims but also light and well priced. It's a bit more than your range but it's well worth saving the extra dough to get quality wheels. RPF1s with Kumho ASX all seasons is 1724 Are you in SoCal? Come to our CStC meets! Located in Socal? Need something Installed? Have a question and no one is willing to help?

tC_vixen New Jersey, US	1724? ::Gulp:: I love all your choices though. The Axis are more reasonable. The bronze, hmmm, dont you think its too dark? I'm trying to picture them on my tc. CLICK TO DONATE & HELP MAKE THIS WONDERFUL SITE OF OURS BETTER!

greddytc05 Hagerstown Maryland, US Vehicle Designer	if you get the tenzo's i will have to track you down and take them...lol. i love those wheels. i'm actually looking at those for my fiance's type-s. they would look good on your car. definatly go with an 18. the 18x7.5 will fit just fine. thats what mine are. when you order the wheels the company will automatically send you the correct offset to fit the car. the only time you have to specify is if you are looking for a custom offset or something to be able to fit in like a set of fender flares or widebody something like that. also a set of gold or dark bronze would be hot. Car is being put on hold until further notice. Work will continue pending on if i get the new toy i want or not. I will keep you all posted. UPDATE ON THE TUNE. It went ok but a few little issues that are causing my performance to be less than expected have shown themselves. Now I have to resolve them when I get the chance and it will be back to PTuning for the finishing touches.

andino Manhattan Beach California, US Godlike Advisor	Well if you can, I'd save the extra dough for better quality wheels. Those RPF1s are greats rims esp for the price. They're also light so they won't effect your handling/acceleration as much. Are you in SoCal? Come to our CStC meets! Located in Socal? Need something Installed?

andino Manhattan Beach California, US Godlike Advisor	Gah PWF's rims are so nice! So are nebster's too lol. I'm sure you could find the RPF1's used somewhere. Are you in SoCal?
