I have been looking at the Rota P1 Time Attacks .. 18x8 +30

here is the link: http://www.wheeldude.com/catalog/pro...products_id=93

They are flat black with a red pinstripe.

or the P45Rs in Time Attack.. Either flat black 18x9.5 +30 or gloss black 18x9 +30

I think for the $$ that Rota's are decent wheels..

Just tell me which ones you like the best.. I want an 18" wheel though.. if you don't like either or think I should get a different color.. also let me know.. and suggest a wheel or different color please.

I really want a nice looking set of wheels.. I just cruise mainly.. I don't track my car or autocross or anything.

Thanks for all of your input!

how wide a rim you want to run? i mean if u just want looks. 18X8.5 and you save alil money. I also have a RR evo I'd get them by 9.5 and run some nice fat grippy tires. but thats me. [DO they make them in 17in version. i thought i saw it on here, 17x 9.5 +25 offset (P45r)?] thats what i' m looking for. either one is good though.
BTW Black with a red lip? cant go wrong. in the end its up to you I'd get the P1's thoughif they're just for looks

you got a current pic of you car as it is??? Any carbon to speak of...are the windows tinted dark. Personally I like the "yamaha" version...thats what I would run on my RR...b/c the gloss finish would match real well if you have some dark windows...not a big fan of the matte unless maybe you have a JDM IX rear...but thats just me

If you have some big marbles you could go with a bronze or dark gold?? I think that would be sick...gunmetal would be safe too...good luck

I will say go with either TE37 time attacks or CE28n time attacks. And if you can get it, SEIBON Edition TE37 for the win!

You should have made a poll. I like the gloss though.

I don't have any pictures as of now... but here is my exterior mod list...

20% tinted windows
JDM head lights, tails, and rear bumper
front carbon fiber lip
black vinyl for the mitsu emblem on the front
shaved trunk with the OEM MR badge


I want to get a wheel that will look good and close that huge wheel gap.. I don't really want to low my car because I love how the Bilstein Suspension rides, but I might end up getting the Swift Springs lowering it 1.38 in the front and .9 in the rear.

You already spent the money on some quality products, why skimp on something as important as your wheels. Look at the nightmares that were reported with ROTA's. Do a search and you will see broken wheels! Just my .02 it is your money and your life.
