Anyone done it?
Who's rim did you go with?
Would you recommend?


I'm looking at changing to black on my black car.

I've contacted neez. Bbs only does a track set. HRE isn't my favorite company

Thank you.

Do NOT get the carbon fiber ones. A guy bought these for his GT3 from HRE. The carbon fiber has a tendency to move (expand and contrast), and his tires keep losing air. I heard he went back to the original wheels - too bad though - even though the CF ones are cool as hell, their prices are extreme.

Odd, CF has a coefficient of thermal expansion that is < 1/25 that of aluminum. Incredibly stable. Must have been other issues.

thanks I will check your website out.



I did find a rim I like by NEEZ but they were fairly crazy priced for an experiment I might not like.
