Hey all,

Finally got just under 2k saved up and figured its time to buy some rims! (just before I have to put winters on nonetheless haha)

really like a pair of Einkie's that i saw on tirerack but I was curious if anyone's had experience with them

I know the stockies are made by them, but save for the OEM has anyone rolled a pair of einkies? If I'm spending the money, I want to get something nice.

BTW I HAVE NOT ruled out getting some rays or works off of the BM so that is more than definitely an option

 

O.o?

Einkie?

you mean Enkei?

i know someone with a SSM has RPF1... but with 2k, i'd go buy a set of used mint condition wheels.

 

Enkei rims are legit. For $2k you can easily get a set of wheels and tires with change to spare if you're going with Enkeis. New Works or Rays will probably run you $2k without tires easy.

 

I used to have Enkei RPF1s on my CSX. pretty solid and lightweight rims, but a bit too plain for me. I do like the new PF01 rims, though.

if you have the money, volk, gram lights or works are definitely the way to go (IMO) but its all subjective opinion.

 

^yeah thanks for the input!

I've decided to wait for a good set of rays off the BM

I really like a set from tire rack but I can't stomach 1600 for them when I could get some sort of rays for around a grand

 

I have Enkei RX7 18"s on my 01--look great, well built
got them off the BM here with tires, both only a few months old..for ~750 with lug nuts!!
major score~
that was a few years ago--now running new front tires after 30kmiles

 

sweet man! do you have pics? I never seem to get to the right threads that I need to when I search for pics of your cars haha

 

i had a set of Enkei RSV on my old Lancer and i loved the look of them. hers a few pics of it...

 

sweet lancer!

why'd you get rid of it?

 

thanks bro. got rid of it get married pffffft lol went with a cheaper car, a 91 JDM MR2 Turbo that i modded then went a completely different direction and did up an 88 Monte Carlo SS lowrider.




sold everything except my bike, bought and sold a few cars now i have the TL and my R6. needless to say iwth my arsenal of cars, i like modding. watch for the TL build for sure...

 

man wish you kept the MR2 that thing is fire!

 

sorry for the totally off topic lol. but ya i miss all of them. one day soon ill have something else to do shit to. im not gonna do a whole lot to the TL, just the basics, drop, wheels, tint, debadge, stereo, probably not much more than that.

the enkei wheels ive always really liked but there are alot of better wheels out there for the same price, just used which doesnt matter. i think i might look for something in the higher end area when i go the wheels route. IMO cheap wheels are just that on the TL, they look cheap.
