IM starting to really like theses wheels but i think that they may be a bit heavier than the CSL's...

Silver looks good, I wonder how a dark grey center and polished lip would look...

IM guessing most people would loath Gold wheels on an Interlagos blue Coupe..

They look MUCH better in silver!

FYI: I had my M Coupe that low once, not nearly enough room for 245s in the front without rubbing. Raise it another 12mm in Pshop, k

Yeah that's slammed right down to the bumpstops. No way would that actually be driveable. Sure looks nice though.

Have Interlagos Blue as well. I'm guessing they would all bash it with gold saying it looks like the Subie STI scheme.

Anyone photoshopped the Blue yet? Come to think about it what about Interlagos on Interlagos? Or black?

For what it's worth, here is the progression of change in my M Coupe's ride height since going to RGRs and RA-1s.
Stock ride height:

-Ugly as sin :sad0147:

Slammed with coilovers:

-Looks good, but every sizable bump rubs

Raised up 10mm vs. slammed:

-Looks even better, and now only rubs on hard bumps on the rear tires

Raised another 4mm front and 5mm rear:

-Doesn't look any higher, but you have to SLAM on a dip to get any rub from the rears. Wheel center-to-fender is 345mm front and 352mm rear

real one's look really good! i don't like how the knock-off's have their whole spokes off-set inward as the spokes connect from the hub to the barrel (the convexedness of the hub) .. seems like it's just trying to make some huge lips to achieve those impressive "cell-phone-on-the-lip" or "dollar-bill-on-the-lip" demonstration

I disagree. Black is overplayed, and looks good on most wheels and colors on cars. Gold is sick however, not all wheel designs (ie this one) cant pull it off.
Car needs a drop asap.

I too not feeling the gold...but I don't like gold anything.

Anyway, we really appreciate you guys showing us your handywork. Gives us lots of ideas. At the very least, when I'm ready for wheels, you'll be the first to know (way before my wife does )

Personally I like the Gold, but white on gold wheels is more of a JDM taste than a Euro style.

Anybody else notice the fog lights on Justin's M?

I prefer the black on white as well.... or gunmetal.
