| in my opinion, size choice is >= style choice. what sizes you lookin at?
do you like dish, concave, or flush wheel design? you have some varying designs in your choices.
lastly, whats your car look like? kitted? slammed? stock fenders? willing to do roll/pull? | |

| stock front fenders rolled & pulled rears with about 2 inches of spacing left (50mm) on 16x6.5 38mm stockies i pm'd simba for rough estimates, and it was somewhat close to what i was going front -17x9.5 15-20mm rear - 18x10 5-10mm my fronts will be passing fender for sure, but i will be doing S15 front conversion this fall/winter, so i will have those 20mm fronts i like all designs but only certain ones in each, i have to see it and picture it in my mind | |

| i have the same size rear pull and same size wheels...except 18x10.5 rear. go with the 10.5 in the back
i would eliminate the cr kai (i dont' think they have a 10 or 10.5 for the back, and they are really heavy). and i'm not feelin the greddy, and they are probably even heavier.
the rest of the 3 would be sweet. the 17x9.5 +15 will fit great on stock fenders, and then you can get a 15 or 20mm spacer when you get your front overfenders | |

| All depends on width and offset. But based on style, id go with VS-XX. I see price is not an issue......because CR Kai and VS-XX are on different price ends of the spectum.

| Yeah thats why i said i would have to find used for those, same with 57S, budget is around 1500, 200 less/more.
These are what im lookin at right now, may add on to options if i find used works/volks decent sizing
CR kais 17x9 17mm 18x9.5 12mm
Enkei RPF1 17x9.5 18mm 18x10.5 15mm
my first set of aftermarket wheels, and its giving me a headache =\ | |
