Just found out that Mitsubishi Lancers can have OZ wheels as an option!

They are the classic twin-spoke design, the those Enkei's, but not as flash.

Volks replacing Momos (page three of this thread). Now have Garrettb16's quandry ie get rid of the gold? Gunmetal, silver or yellow - any thoughts?
Bridgestone re001's are as good as everyone says they are. Amongst all the plusses cant get over how quiet they are!

Peter, Yes they are the Chapparals from R Speed; Currently $122 Us each plus $380 Us for postage.(around $1000aus)They were $149 when i bought mine a couple of years ago!!!!!

They are an excellent wheel, great finish but a little heavier then the ROTA RB's 7.2 kg versus 6.3 , I think.I have not noticed any problems with the extra weight.

The Rota's are about $730US9 (830 aus) inc freight and nuts from 18 Racing, and are lighter. Finish is good.

couldn't go wrong with either in my opinion,

Very nice car. Although I dont think that gold wheels go really well with yellow paint. ( Gold seems to be made for green, red, black cars ). Black spokes or silver would be better IMO. :)
