I'm actually way north in Keswick near lake simcoe =p. I have always loved the te37's but actual volks are way out if my price range. Thought they would be a nice alternative. Friend had them in 17 on his integra never had a problem

Here's my baby! May plasti dip the polished lip or spokes or both? Didn't realize I had that much chrome on the ride until now (figurative).

8.5x20" with a 40mm offset all around. 225/35/20 tires with a slight stretch in case I decide to drop it.

I am running the same offset but .5 narrower rim and they sit flush with no drop of course and a slight tire stretch (no expert here though).
Try this site out as it helped me pick out my tires and it gives you great feedback once you load first your factory tire/rim specs then the ones you are looking at now.

Get some new material or better yet man up, buy after market rims and be entitled to a real opinion other than "that looks hood". You wouldn't know hood if it pimp smacked you, took your lunch money and left your car on blocks.

I know you mean well on2 but try being more constructive. "If you don't leave something better than how you found it then you should leave it alone"

Looks like someone made Dad angry!! Better get use to those on the interwebz Dad =)

Could you please post some more shots. It's a little difficult to base an opinion on that one shot. Thx. Once lowered, it appears from the pic that it'll look pretty nice.

What crawled in my Cheerios right! No worries, I know he means well....

I have only one side shot and it's not a great one. I bought these wheels only because of how bad the factory ones looked. I will probably plasti dip them as they are a little on the flashy side. Here's a not so good side pic (constructive criticism welcome), will need a drop and considering air bags, any suggestions everyone?

Those are 20s? Amazing how small wheels look with no drop and a lip. I honestly thought those were 18s before reading your previous comments. I am not sure I would go with plasti dip on the wheels. Not a huge fan of the rim style, but a drop would do wonders for the car.

Thx for the pic. Definitely will look better once lowered. I wouldn't even dip it if I were you.

Hey everyone, it looks like I'm going to pull the trigger and get a set of rims. I've been doing my research for a while now and trying to stay away from replicas and stuff. I've pretty much narrowed it down to an Enkei rim and a rim I saw from one of the members on here. Infex or something. I need your opinions on these please.

I was pretty set on getting a set of 20's but I given where I live and the crappy roads, I think the smarter thing for me to do is stick with 19's. Here are the two rims. Thinking 19 x 8.5 front and 9.5 in the back with +35 offset all around.

I'm looking at the Enkei Raijin's or Curva Concepts C7. I found a pic of the Curva's on an accord and there's the pic of them on the white accord courtesy of Infex. The Enkei's I couldn't find on an accord but a decent comparable shot on a veloster.

Let me know what you guys think. There is a small difference between them.

The C7's will pop more because of the darker sides and background of the wheels. They also look more pro and am sure they are the pricier of the two options.

I actually like the look of the C7's more because of that and the slighty longer spokes. I've always liked the black background (Black with machined face finish). The only thing is, the Enkei's are likely higher quality and they're one of Enkei's lightweight wheels. They're actually more expensive than the C7's. C7's coming in around 200 each and the enkei's around 300. Cdn that is. I can always have the black background done as well if I get the Enkei's. Which would also make the spokes seem a bit longer. As far as finish, I like the C7's look. Quality and gut feeling say Enkei's though. Man I hate this. :dunno:

You can photo shop both on your car or just go with your gut.

Here is a dealership offering which I originally almost purchased until I laid eyes on MSM.
Will plasti dip my spokes to get the same look of these wheels.

If I get the curva wheels in 19s..I would go with a higher offset,,especially in the rear..try maks tire and wheel in Illinois. I've had 4 diff sets of 19s on my sport and 2 diff sets of 20s..so I've gotten too see what really works and looks good IMO offset wise..maks quoted me 800 shipped for the curvas.19 inch staggered. 38ET front and 43ET rear..good luck
