Yah they aren't cheap. A grand for each rim, but when you have a car that has 800 plus hp on low boost settings and that I plan on doing standing mile events, it is justifiable--barely. Yah at first I couldn't understand why rims were so much money, but the japan companies rigioursly test there products so that they exceed OEM standards. The rears, I have to increase because of the new widebody. I didn't feel safe with getting them back rays cut and widened or rebarrelled. Not with 608+ ft/lb of torque... And the only similar looking rims are Works Meister SP1 and SP3s, and SSR Professors. I decided to go mismatched so I'm buying a Work rim from the gnosis line. Save some money, but still get the new dimensions and offset that I need. The benefit of mismatched is that I can keep wall if the old set and just use then as front rims. I'll have f: 19x9.5 and 19x10; r: 19x11. I hope to be placing that rim order soon--it takes 3 months to get them, so I want to get the ball rolling.
