looking good Sam!

 

Hey all, I'll make sure to posts some pictures after this weekends SUMOSPEED Springfest show in Virginia Beach. I bought my car 3 years ago with the 18x8.5 Time Attack CE28's on them and am currently running 255x40r/18 Bridgestone Potenza RE71R's. Although the wheels have minor blemishes from previous owners I think i've been able to keep them clean.
I probably crossed the line by putting the Red SL Spoke stickers on mine. I could'nt help them looking plain and everything else on the car has been changed by me other than the wheels, so it was time and I love the way it turned out.

Either way, hope you guys enjoy.

James.

Saved the pic for my work SS

 

 

specs, color, etc?

 

these look to fit perfect. What does the rt stand for usually where the n is? These require spacers or anything?

 

they stand for Rigid Tune. To my knowledge, these are the lightest and strongest CE28s produced to date but were discontinued. Read this article.. it is a good summary of them.

As for that set up^^, I sold it and went to a 17" TE37 set up.. For the CE28RTs above, a 9 mm spacer is needed to clear the calipers up front so the +24 becomes +15 which is pretty aggressive. It did not help that I ran 265/35s. Main issue I had was the constant rubbing up front and did not want to run additional negative camber. The rears also were rubbing at times and that is with fenders rolled flat. So I did not want to screw with them any further and went to the set up below. I am much happier with the 17"s(17x9.5 +28) running a 265/40 measuring out to 275 without any rubbing and have a lot more meat of tire under the fenders due to the higher offset and no spacer.



and yes TE37 FTW

 

 

i've spoken with a number of reliable sources - the CE28N is no longer in production. There's a last run batch and that's it... I happen to be on that batch
