HRE SIZE ISSUE...PLEASE ADVISE
I'm ready to get some wheels. Leaning toward the HRE 540R polished, but I'm having issues deciding on the size. I was going to get 19's, but I know the Kumos only come in an 18 as their largest size. I'm concerned with traction because I'm planning to mod the car pretty heavily (not that it needs to be modified to have traction issues
). Any experiences or recommendations? Also, what other finish would look nice on a Blu/Wht? :thumb:

I would say get the HRE 547's in 18" that way you can run a good tire on them if you plan on modding the car. Over all will be a better ride and still look Killer!!
Also, make sure you get the High Polish finish (Extra $400 or so) or else get them chromed other wise you will be polishing your ass off.

Any of you guys with lots of power thinking of going to an 18inch wheel, or is everyone going with the larger wheels.
Thin Man: I'm asking $9,200 for the Gixxer. Just the exhaust on this thing is worth $2,500. I'll post some pics when I get home from work today.

I actually think those forgeline's are nice, but I don't know how that combo (black and polished) will look on a Blu/Wht.

It;s actually more of a steel grey, not black. They just show bad in the pictures
I'm willing to come down to $4100 too. I'm kicking around the idea of putting SRT rims on the GTS :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

SRT Rims look awesome on the GTS. Saw a few GTS vipers this weekend with those wheels.
