Default Talk me out of these!!!

Ok so I'm in the process of selling my "summer" wheels, check em out if you want them. I was looking for a new set of summer wheels and came across the RA25 rim at japanparts.com



SOOO NICE . . . . I love this rim only in silver though but so nice. No idea how much it weighs and to get it shipped to my door is 1700 which isn't that bad because I was thinking about getting a set of Prodrives or advans??? But this weel is so sweet. Another obsticle is Christmas is coming up and money is going to be spent on other people not car stuff. . . so should I hold out and see what 07 brings with other wheel companies . . . or just get these cause they are just so damn HAWT!!!! JDM FTW!

But seriously, go with a set of rotas or something cheap and just enjoy the Christmas spirit (read as beer).

depends what strip club you're going to ............

I say get them and you can get them in gold.

note, these are also available in 5x100 so they aren't "only on the JDM STi's" j/ a heads up if that's what you were shooting for.

Do you still have those rpm's?
Did they fit no problem?
I'm assuming they were 17x8 +45
How was the offset?
I Like em for my 07 sti.
