        HOW MUCH???????????????????????????????????


        I wanted to go with CCW on my autox car because John was GREAT to deal with on my last autox car. But he really doesn't want to do a 4 lug setup (but will if I insist). And I 'think' I can get a good deal on Forgeline through a old buddy of mine................

            Can't say for sure, but from my understanding, when comparing similar sized wheels, they are pretty light......

              The wheels are pretty light. I will have the car back this Wednesday, so I will finally put up some pics. As for the fitment, they fit with no problems but i did have to roll the fenders. The rear fenders had to be re-painted as well. They look awesome!
              As for the cost, they are as listed on the forgeline website, I did get them slightly cheaper from a Forgeline dealer in Washington.

                  Did they quit making the nice thick 5 spoke wheels?

                  I always wanted a set of those... Similar to the SSR Gt2.

                      A bit big for my tastes, but otherwise looks great. I LOVE the color of your car.

                        Damn those are sick! I love them. They work great with the RD Kit too. Any E30 with a full color paint job should wear 17"s IMO

                          Thanks! The colour is the factory Calypso Red and the wheels are 18x8 in the front and 18x9 in the rear. I also shaved the rear antenna and put a hidden one. I didn't want to get the M3 antenna either. The new antenna is hidden under the rear shelf and behind the tint along the rear window. You can see the antenna delete in the first pic. The FM reception works great, and now I don't have to look at that ugly factory antenna whip any more!
