in titanium.. offset is a bit soft.. 16 x 7 with 33 offset.. mmm...

will have to save up megabucks, bringing them in from the US.

i had a look at goodwin racing, their rpf1's look nice but offsets aren't low enough :cry:

Nice choice in wheels, they look even more porn in 17x10...mega concave!

How much from the states? You can get them here in stock in most colours for 1.5-1.6k.

they are $220USD each.. i'm waiting for our currency to inflate.. it will be roughly $1.3k shipped to Aus, if the aussie dollar is around 90c marks

otherwise i might take up your advice and just get them here in oz..

if you like concave, then these were the model before the Hot editions came in:

looks more tuffer

If you had access to a car like this, would you take it back right away? Neither would I.

Those hanging plants look very much like a succulent called "Burro's Tail" (Donkey's Tail). Sedum morganianum.

This a thread about cars or a thread about plants?? :lol:

Nice choice with the (puts on JDM voice) Noirs there... but I don't think they're as mouth wateringly cool in low width/high offset
Have you considered RP01/2/3?
they come up cheap on the JP auctions once in a while
Look nice in sensible offsets, and a dash of dish

Nice car otherwise, I was looking forward to seeing this one in person too...! :mrgreen:

Thanks for that andy,

the meisters are up in top spot along with the ce28's as my ducks nuts rims.

Only getting the 5zigens because I can't afford the meisters at this stage..

Otherwise, if i wait until the end of the year, i would treat myself to the meisters.

Can you send me a pm on where you saw it , and how much they were going for?

Thanks 8) :P
