AMBIT wheels

i got one sets from them ,and they look so good on my car. (Mine and my friends opinion)

Fitment is good shipping was good, communication was good. Actually very good looking wheels and quality looks good too.

Here is one picture. If someone look for a cheap DD but look stylish, these wheels seem to be a very good deals.




the wheels were completely wrapped and had a plastic protection like a ring around the wheel edges.

Did you rolled your fenders? I can't believe that it only weights 22 lbs. For $460 I will get one.

These are replicas of WedSport TC 105 N wheels--though unlike the WedSports, these actually come in a size/offset combination that is advantageous for the Evo X (and they aren't ~$600 per wheel).

I like how they have an "OEM+" look to them...wish they were available when I was buying summer wheels! Congrats, they're lookin' good

Curious to see Rob's opinion on them after driving on them for a month. Definitely like the look and price on these wheels.

thanks guys

It feels the same as another wheels on street
I do not race them so i have no clue how they would hold up on serious racing circumstances.

I can tell you , i got lots of compliments on them. People like the way they look. I think the perfect size and off set also helps a lot about the overal looks of the wheel on the Evo X.

I have no issues with them.

Yes it's 22 per wheel. Definitely shouldn't be considered a good thing...but for the price, meh.

yes, not bad at all.
The stock Evo X GSR wheel is 21 LBS. So i gained 1 more inch in wide which allows me to run a 275's all around
http://www.evoxforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=45214

Only gained in wheel weight 1 lbs per wheel. But the cost vs the stock wheel is dramatic. these are cheaper then a tire you put on them
So for DD so far is a perfect wheel. They look awesome and i do not worry about scratching them at all.

I'm curious about these also. I believe there's a Volk ZE clone also.

these wheels are cast and are cheap. Fine for DD, but you will bend them if you track them. I've heard a few reports of people bending these on track after owning them for 1 week.
