Does anyone know a site selling 18x8 SA-70's in light grey? TireRack has moved them to "Back Order/Special Order" status, and I was told on the phone that I'm looking at a 2-3 month wait time from Weds in Japan. Google has not been of use to me here...

I really want these wheels, but waited too long to pull the trigger, and now I'm paying the price... thanks for any help anyone can give!

i don't really have an answer to your question, but i wanted to say great choice!

i was down to the SA-70 or the TC-005 and i went the TC-005 route. with your CGP, the SA-70 in bronze would be kickass

You know, I've thought about bronze. It's something that has potential to be fantastic, but I am weary of pulling the trigger without seeing it in pictures first. :-/ But you've reminded me about the possibility...

there's a post in the photo gallery forum with a CGP and bronze wheels

MyK24a is a user that has bronze work emotion cr-kai on his cgp. and i think it looks so badass.

I find myself back at the WedsSport TC005... Tirerack still has them in 17x7.5 +48. Looking at doing that with a 235/45/17 tire to maintain stock diamater. The idea of a 15lb rim really appeals to me as well. How are your 17's working out so far Ruffledprey? Any good pics of the setup? Are you on stock suspension? I'm running ASpec.

Thanks!

did they sell out of the 18's before you could get a set?

yeah, stock suspension for now. i want to get some tein basics or maybe even just the a-spec suspension. i'm not looking for much of a drop or to slam it or anything. just want to close up some of the wheel gap

Check out my 06 RBP on the TSX.club site under the SoCAL NWP meet picture thread. I'm sporting 17" Wedsport SA-70's +45 offset wrapped in Falken Azenis 225/45/17.

That they did. I procrastinated and changed my mind on wheels enough that the 18's are gone now.

Ruffledprey, nice ride. Thanks for sharing the pics. I'm still on the fence about doing 17's. And GAntonio, your SA70's are gorgeous on your car.

Procrastination is the mother of all f-ups. I just placed my oder for 17x7.5 TC005's with Kuhmo Ecsta SPT's in 235/47/17, mounted and balanced shipped to my office.

Can't wait to slap 'em on, get an alignment (ASpec suspension will be fully settled by the time the new wheels are on), and snap some pics.

Thanks for all the input, guys.

i really wish they made the tc-005 in the bronze that they make the sa-70 in. i think that would look great on cgp
