Just ordered new tires/wheels!

I dunno how bad the rubbing was.....I didn't drive it. Not to mention the fact the the tires looked like rubber bands. Also, a 215/35/18 on an 8 inch wide rim looks very stretched...that's one of the things that looked odd about the wheels.

I'm thinking the 17's will be just fine if they ever get them in. Apparently the machine that makes the 17's broke a while back and they just recently got it fixed, so they should be in soon. Probably gonna go with Hyper Black instead as well.

They did look sweet though....very nice quality too. I was impressed.

bad luck man. I say you should stick with the silver on silver though....it looks awesome! But, whatever floats yuor boat I guess.

To me, 18's make the 5 look like a covered wagon. The design looks sweet, but it will look much better with 17's IMO... good luck.

Thanks....I'm sure the 17's will look good as well.

I'm just sick of waiting around for these wheels.
 
Might go with these instead.....thoughts?

I'm partial to the Ennios, but I've wanted them or anything like them for a while now, so I'm a little biased.

Either would look good, though. The only thing is, a lot of p5s have the "many spoked" rim look (like me) .The Ennios, although a few members have/had them, are not a common look so I'd feel special with them.

Are the Rev wheels in the same price range? Are they in stock?
 
Those Rev model 2's are nice but I think they only come in a +42 offset. I just ordered a set of 17x7 TZ-10's from wheelmax which come in +45 - I'd much rather be able to run 215/40's then 205/40. What do you think of these? -

Honestly, I like these better than the Motegi MR-4's ....don't like the rivet look plus those Motegis only come in a 40 offset I believe. But yeah, they are ripoffs :D

I like them, but I honestly like the REV II's better....I like the lighter Hyper finish as opposed to the darker.

I still can't decide on wheels. I wish the Ennio's had fit. Since I've decided to step back to the 17's I'd like to find a wheel where the spokes (however many they have) go all the way to the edge of the wheel instead of stopping inside the lip. Makes the wheel appear to be bigger than they really are IMO, but the REV II's don't fall in that category. Might go with the REV XI's instead....I dunno.
 
yes. i dont know how long ill be doing buisness with rev for, so no more sales until further notice.
