Sometimes you just gotta let a "ho" be a "ho"!

Damn what is that your 12 set? I like em, not as much as some of your previous ones.

Haha, I guess I tossed the Euro-style idea out the window when I opted for Volks instead of keeping the HREs. After running so many sets, volk forged monoblocks truly are unparalleled. The rest of the car will still adhere to the euro-style I am going for.

Btw, the RJs are temporary until my Volks come in (next week).
These volks will be of utmost rarity with respect to all the wheels I've owned.

So does that mean you'll keep em for two weeks instead of one?

Those are RJs?
I think most of RJs wheels are pretty nice but those look like Pontiac rims to me.

Sorry, I meant the rims in the first post looked like Pontiac Rims.
I was/am surprised if those are actually RJs as I feel RJs generally look pretty good.

Oh yeah the rims in the first pic are indeed. I'm not a huge fan of them either; they looked nice on some older Acuras though.

I have a feeling they are either LE37's or TE's by the color of the wheel.

Can't wait to see what you have this time!!

Seriously, you guys are good.

Blast from the past, LE37T in gunmetal, going to get them refinished formula silver or mercury silver, with super polished lip, since Rays 'polished' lips are dull as heck.

The reason why I said they were rare is not only because they are LE37Ts, (you can actually find many sets of them, usually the 9.5 10.5 +22 ET), but because they are:

19x9.5 +35
19x10.5 +35,

which was a limited run and they can be had only with a bulk order by Rays Eng.

Not only that, but the styling are the equivalent of those of the 19x9.5 +22 19x10.5 +22, with respect to concavity and lip in the rear, as can be seen below:

An honest answer? Not long. I have a set of wheels (need to be built) I have wanted to own but never had the resources and funds; I will have them soon though. When the time is right I will sell these.

Once you buy one set, you can always resell and buy the next set without too much issue or more incurred cost. It helps to have a reputation of taking care of your stuff and being a good seller and having good taste in wheels.

I love the new set and can't wait to see them on.

This is a teaser thread? Didn't notice. All I was looking at was Valerie & Melanie Rios.

Honestly, can't wait to see the wheels.
