Anyone know what wheel this is?

Interested in this wheel, so I'm hoping someone knows what it is.

BTW, anyone know which wheel size to get if I'm going 18s. Is it 18x7 or 18x7.5. These are the possisble tire sizes I will be looking at.

215/45-18 = +0.49% ....... you see 50mph, actually doing 50.25mph
225/40-18 = -1.59% ........ you see 50mph, actually doing 49.20mph

How about the offset? Anyone know what that has to be at with 18x7 and 18x7.5 wheel sizes.

Here's the wheel in question, what is it? TIA

You have got some great taste. Advan Kreuzer Series V, JDM wheel. Probably cost ya $500-700 per wheel. I'd say go with the 45 series tire, a little bit more sidewall to protect the wheel, a little better ride, probably won't be noticing any worse performance.

I think you have to go with the 18x7.5. From what I see on Yok's Japanese website, there are no 5x114.3 18x7 wheels. Also 18x7.5 come in 45 and 50 offsets FYI. I don't know which one you should use, I'm not clear on offset myself.

Found a guy on this thread asking about the same wheel, for his Accord 6MT 19x8.5 45 offset in silver. Got quoted $2600. Ouch

Thanks for all the help. Just when I think I've found my wheels, they cost an arm and a leg and a frontal lobe. That price is just too steep for me. But dayaaam those are nice rims.

The Roja's are nice but I think they've got thicker spokes and they're curved.
