Opinions on 18" Enkei razrs on PWP

What are your honest opinions on enkei razrs on a pwp? I have never been a fan of machined black wheels, but they seem to work on this car. Either that or I've been staring at these pics for too long.

Thanks for the replies guys. The car above isnt mine. Was just using it to decide whether or not the razrs work on pwp. Will probably pick the wheels up this weekend. I will see how it looks at stock height before I decide to lower. I used to have a rsx lowered on 18s with stechs. Looked great, but I hated the ride quality. I was hoping to keep the suspension on the comfortable side this time around. If i do lower, it will probably be with coilovers.

Ed i think the pwp in the pics is lowered on eibach pro kit.

Thanks kowloon! Yea I saw your progress thread. Car looks awesome. Definitely does look a lot better with a drop and 40 series tires. I saw harkroads vbp too. Do you know if he was lowered? Doesnt look bad if thats stock height.

Ended up putting on the razrs this weekend. I'm not sure if I'm really feeling the gloss black 2 toned portions of the wheels though. Thinking of getting them powder coated a solid color. Maybe gunmetal. Or painting the black parts a satin silver to make em look more oem. Either that or sell/trade them for the v6 18s. If anyone in Florida with v6 wheels wants to trade, I am down anytime. These have stock tpms sensors too so it will be a straight swap.

On a more positive note, the wheel/tire combo feels great. The car used to be almost too plush. Now the steering feed back is more lively and the grip is substantially improved. Definitely makes the car feel a bit sportier.


Will probably make a profile thread with better pics later.

Yea I like the Razr's more than the V6 18's. How much did you pay for the razrs? If you do a straight trade would you be losing money on it?
