These are RP03's btw

wow, you really think these Enkie's are a better rim than the factory nismo's?

hell they dont even look that good, granted thats my opinion.


(are you selling the nismo rims by any chance?)

Yeah I think I may have changed my mind. I liked them at first but the more I look at them the more I change my mind lol.

Yeah I am definitely going to sell the stock wheels if/when I get new ones. It will probably be soon because I will need new tires soon anyway. Let me know if you are interested

FWIW: The Nismo wheels are forged and from a top end manufacturer (Rays who also makes Volks) if you want to replace your factory wheels for looks that is fine, but I would not want to downgrade wheels just for the looks. With that said there are several quality wheels that you can get. TSW Nurburings, Forgestar F14's, Used Volks, Weds Sport SA55's, used SSR's, ect. Another option would be to powder coat your factory Nismo wheels to change up the overall look as well.

Buy the Nismo's for around 850, have them shipped to me and powdercoated black for 300 and you've got a great lightweight forged set of wheels for under 1200. If you are getting new tires also, I can hook you up, since I have a wholesale account and you are local.

I acutally bought these to coat and resell, but decided to use them for myself.

Just picture these in black (just coated them today!), they have a 2" lip in back and 1" in front

Any thing else will be just as heavy as the stock nismo rims.

I might have done this if I didn't hate the look of those wheels

I decided to go with these. Wedssport SA55M in matte grey. 19x9.5 +15 front and 19X10.5 + 15 rear. They look sick IMO. 20lbs front and 21lbs rear according to the seller.

If anyone is interested in stock Nismo wheels I have a thread in the marketplace.
