They are only $155 per wheel in 17X7 and weigh 15.5lbs!!!!! I am kind of skeptical. I have written them questioning the strength of the wheel.....I hope they are strong. They look good, they are light, they have a 7" width which is decent, and they are cheap and could make GREAT track wheels. What do you think?

Anthrecite for sure. Black is a little much for me. Just my opinion. Good choices though. :D

They look great. I've heard ER wheels are pretty good, excellent for the price. I vote for anthracite too. What I don't understand is why you would want them as track wheels. Personally, if I had a set of those, they would stay on all the time.

I would have bought those for my RX7 had I not sold it. Those are exactly what I was looking for. Unique, light, 17x7. The ones I ended up with were more expensive and weighed around 19.5 apiece. I say do it.


Another vote for anthrocite

Well, the reason I was saying track wheels is because I wanted some 18's for the street........18" OZ Superleggers. I also thought that the wheels would bend or something. Who knows, I will think about it. I need to see how they look on the car, if they are a little to wild for me, then they would have to be track wheels. OZ's look great. Here are some more pics of the ER wheels.... http://www.auburn.edu/~mcgowmd/er.jpg

Well... OZ SL's are pretty much track wheels if you wanna be technical about it. I say crusie the 17" ERs on the street and save your $1.5k for something fun. With wheels like those or SLs, your car is gonna look mean no matter what size they are. By the way, say goodbye to your "sleeper" look. :D [/i]

Those look good to me and at 15lbs for 17's that is light for the price. You would have to get the black ones. That would look killer with your car being silver like it is.

There are honda guys going with the flik wheels, and they like them. If they ever break ( i doubt it) but theyre kinda cheap so you can just replace them.

My wheels are 100 each, and they hold up quite nicely.

Hey, think that you could come over and draw the Type R and Neuspeed on my car for me when get it back. I can supply the crayons or magic markers, I just need your artistic touch.

Someone chop the black ones on. I think they would look killer on Micheal's car.
