cant go wrong either way. I like the legend version 2 myself. I was deciding between the rj wheels and those enkei but ended up going with my ssr type f that were on clearance sale. It all comes down to money and how much this mod is worth it too you vs other mods you can get done.

It would of been funnier if he suggested the Enkies

The Legends are real nice, I had a set (and I miss them). But the price difference and Im sure the Enkeis weigh less are a bigger selling point for me.

ive never touched the curb.

All my cars have had different wheels one time or another, and ive never added or put rash on anything. some people are bad at parking though.

I just picked up a set of used RJ's. I like them. They set the car off, however those enkei's look hotter. I am from the old school and the enkei's give me the bbs look. Go enkei and save the $500 for your tires.

The Legends are more unique, I personally like the graphite finish. The Enkeis are just another standard mesh wheel. Now the question is if that uniqueness is worth $500?

I want to see the legends on an Acura Legend haha.

The Ronjons look better, but the Enkies obviously weigh less.

It's all personal preference to you not us.

Are you looking for a performance wheel? Or one that was designed to look nice with our cars?

They rubbed because they were not built for your car, unlike the RJs. New wheels look good, but anythign smaller than 19" with a lip end up looking tiny.
