nice man,,, where did you get them? Im guessing lightweight??

Cosworth · 04-03-2003, 06:07 PM

Thanks,

Got them through Nino's Auto Accessories.

15.5 lbs each.

KIMUTAKU · 04-03-2003, 06:23 PM

are these the newest enkei rims??? i've seen them in jap option magazine...very nice..

how much are they???

subarud · 04-03-2003, 06:23 PM

Nice I bet you got a little bit of grip with those so-3's!

What kind suspension setup are you running?

Do you autox your 69 wrx?

~Evan

Cosworth · 04-03-2003, 06:34 PM

Autox? Avidly.

Suspension: Koni's & Ground Controls, front camber/caster plates, custom alignment (~ -2.0 deg camber f&R), Sways F&R and various chassis braces.

First event here is this saturday. I'll be moving into race tire class as this year is my first running R-compunds (Kumho's). Fun!

Jon.

driggity · 04-03-2003, 06:48 PM

Wow. Those look much better than I thought they would when I just saw pictures of them by them selves. I didn't realize they were that lightweight either.

downeyer · 04-04-2003, 07:48 AM

ahh man...you're killing me

Let's see the whole car... So far, they look awesome

supertikkigod · 04-04-2003, 08:22 AM

mmmmmm lip...

1quikrex · 04-04-2003, 11:29 AM

Are you sure you need hub rings? I thought Nino said they worked without them?

Dr. Zevil · 04-04-2003, 11:33 AM

Almost got me a set of those. They look nicer than I thought. Do you think they can handle everyday abuse though??

There was initially conflicting info from different sources whether they would be hubcentric or not, but in the end, they were not. Even so, the wheels come with the proper metal rings for exact scooby fitment.

I dont see why not... if they are pseudo forged in a manner similar to the SSR's, then they should be some amount stronger than a plain cast wheel. I personally am using these for street duty. I'll be taking more pics later when i can mount the wheels (haven't had a chance yet) and i'll take some detailed pics of the wheels showing thier construction.

Dr. Zevil · 04-04-2003, 12:17 PM

Nice, I hope they hold up for you! I don't know anything that says different, just curious.

WRXURV8 · 04-04-2003, 12:39 PM

Sorry to be OT, but are those mud flaps OEM?

Edvig · 04-04-2003, 12:53 PM

Ok...that's it. I need those rims.

Nice look combining the rims...it's very Hundah.

SuperSpud · 04-04-2003, 01:23 PM

hey cosworth=== check your pm box.. I sent you a message...

Cosworth · 04-04-2003, 02:00 PM

WRXURV8: YEs, they are the oem impreza flaps. The fit perfectly in the rear, but the fronts need to be dremeled out a bit to account for the larger WRX sedan side skirts.

Edvig: Thanks, but my look won't be complete until i put some winter steelies up front and throw away those hideous gold wheels.

Superspud: i saw your message, but i accidentally deleted all my messages before i could respond. I was going to get back to you with your questions, but unfortunately i made a boo-boo.

If you resend your PM, i'll happily reply.

fengshui-fu · 04-04-2003, 02:47 PM

Thumbs up for what are possibly the UGLIEST wheels ever to ride on a car including winter steelies. Just kidding, looks good but just one question. What bolt is that?
