Tell me about it. :banghead: A lot of people like the second ones too... I myself am thinking of the top ones or the bottom ones.

Yeah I'd have to say the last ones look the best.

I would say look into gram lights, but they are a little pricey. I really like the 57pro model though: http://www.mynismo.com/images_products/5848.jpg

I like the first one, but you might need to get some formula 1 hubs to mount them...

I hate enkies.

personal preference as far as not liking them. They typically weigh too much, and all the mitsu tuners I know run them.

Yeah, hub nut mounting eliminates them from us using them stock. Altho I'm sure they offer them in 5 by 100...

Ahhh okay. They all fit the Neon SRT-4 by the way. 35+ offset. 5x 100.

I removed the gunmetal ones... I think they are too dark.

So its down to 3.

They came off a 1st gen Neon. That picture just represents them. Turns out they won't fit. I called up a site that sells them and they said it wouldn't clear the caliper. +42 offset sucks. I could get spacers and crap. But $800 is already a pretty penny. So I said screw it. Ordered the Evo 5's instead.

Damn that sucks, those are nice wheels and light as hell. So I take it we need a 38 offset on our cars?

The SRT-4 can fit a 35mm-40mm without spacers. But then there might be spoke designs that won't clear the caliper on a 40mm... Then again there could be a rim with a 42 offset that would clear it find because of the spoke pattern. I believe my Evo 5's are 35mm.
