The G-Force will not be released in Sports Bronze. This finish looks great on the P45R, Tarmac 3, etc.. however on the G-Force it's a different look due to the spoke shape. The spokes curve during the concave so the face can't be fully polished with the FRSB finish. We can do the regular painted Bronze finish or the new Matte Bronze finish if there is enough interest

Gun Metallic is by far darker than the Hyper Black finish. Gun Metallic is a dark color that has a nice metallic flake that really shines when sunlight hits the wheel. Hyper Black is more of a black chrome that almost looks polished at times. Here's a side by side comparison of the two

Gun Metallic vs Hyper Black

I just ordered the 18x9 flat black with red lip. I'm stoked! I'm lowered, unfortunately, on s-techs. I plan on switching to swifts soon, but until then, will they fit alright? I plan on rolling the rear fenders, and running a spacer up front. Only thing is, I have no idea what size spacer to run.

the wheels should come with a 3mm spacer. it's hard to say if they will fit unless you tell us what your offset and tire size are.

I have an evo viii 04 RS. It is lowered with tein springs. I am planning on getting wheels and tires. I was wondering if the G-Force 18 X 9 will fit and what tire size I would need.

I recommend a 255/35/18 tire for an Evo 8/9 with these wheels. It fits the wheel well and the car nicely. Some tires run wider than others and may require rear fender rolling if on a lowered car.

18x9 +30 G-Force wheels require a 3mm spacer in front. The spacer is so small that the wheels remain hub centric All purchases from us include these spacers for free

Can you tell me what the instock/on order colors list is? Sounds like black/red lip, gun metallic, hyper black and silver? Do you have a pic of gold that maybe I missed? I have a TB but want a bright color (silver, gold, or even polished-look) wheel. TIA

I believe you just spoke to Zoeb on the phone and setup an order for the G-Force in Gun Metallic. Gun Metallic goes very well on EB and you are going to love the look of this setup.

Here's a preview of what the wheels look like on EB Be sure to post pictures of your ride once you get the wheels though

The 18x9 G-Force wheels are not made in Bronze. If there is enough interest for this color we can make them in the standard Rota Bronze (light bronze) or the new Matte Bronze finish.
