Keeping in mind that my photo chopping ability sucks, which one of these two styles do you like better and what color do you think i should paint em. NOTE: IF THIS WAS A QUESTION ABOUT WHICH TRACK WHEELS WERE BEST, HANDS DOWN THE ENKEI's WOULD WIN. But it isn't, its about wheels/style for both street and track, all purpose so to speak.

Info:
LEFT SIDE
OEM Turbo II Solid Spokes
Weight: Heavy
Style: Classic, but might look a little bulky for the smaller narrowbodies.
Price: anywhere from 500-1200$ for replicas to OEM's.


RIGHT SIDE
Enkei NT03+M's
Weight: 19lbs front 20lbs rear
Style: racey, my photoshopping ability sucks, maybe someone could do a better job ?
Price: 1500$ or less



Maybe if someone has the time, could they photoshop the enkei's into a black color or maybe black with a red pinstripe?

I did a pole amongst my close peer group and will post up the results later on so as not to bias anyone's opinion here.

I like the look on the right side just because they are different from the left OEM wheels. Maybe black or a graphite?

Turbo IIs, silver

Maybe boring, but with the kit you have I like the left ones.

The Enkei NT03+M's in black or graphite for sure, yes for sure.....

^ sweet. plz vote in the poll so i can easily tabulate things at the end.

Where are you buying the Enkneis from?

Benjamin Choi

neither. at your price point, i'd totally hook it up with the bbs mesh oem sport design wheels. i love the look of the aerokit man.

cool of u to ask for our opinions.

Dale Gribble

not sure yet.
for you US guys tho, i would contact vivid racing, they sell them and probably have em instock.

i ordered enkei's from them for my rx-7 and their pricing was hard to beat and they got them to me fast which was important. waiting for rims from japan sucks

anyhow,

ben: i agree with you 100%, if i can find a set of sport designs i will get them. i'm trying to get as many pics and opinions on the Enkei's tho, because they're so light. Ive had OEM wheels, 9ff wheels (lightest) and some of the heavy bling wheels, and the weight is noticable to me. I'm in no immediate buying rush rite now so if i come across some sport designs, game over. Thanks for your opinion.

Benjamin Choi

def wait then. the enkeis are more appropriate on a mugened out nsx, not a german car.

Dale Gribble

^ yeah...they would be fantastic rims if it wern't for two things:
1) the secondary ring that they have connecting the spokes.
2) the center area has these recesses around the bolt holes, like old mustang rims or Fuches...really..WTH i s that...this is 2008 for god sake.

on that note, if someone has a set of TE37's they want to sell me, i wouldn't be opposed

Here's how the wheels look on a GT3:

deadeye not sure if you know this but these enkeis are knock-offs of the original mugen design. mugen = pricey japanese race shop with mad great motorsport history (supplied engines in F1 back in the honda glory days).

Niether. I prefer the GT3 wheels.
