Talking new wheels 19"

i'm not a big fan of 19" wheels on and Evo but I might do these this spring for my street driving.


19 X 8.5 42et 19.5lbs Forged

They look awesome in person, pictures do not do justice!

I'm sure they're forged.

MSRP = $969ea
Street price might be closer TO $800ea

Can't argue with 19.5lbs on 19s when the stock Enkeis are over 20lbs. However, $970 (or even $800) per wheel is an unbelievable amount to pay for rims that aren't used for racing. Do people really pay that much? I assume that would come to well over 4k for tires, mounting, shipping, etc. Yowza.

19s are a bit to big for me but those are pretty cool. Dont forget to put some tires on those babys before you drive it

Clean off your sills! That's a lot of track trash rubber you got stuck on them!


Oh, nice wheels, what tires are you going with?
