Fair point there, well made. Only reason i'd not go for them is the seemingly oversized center portion. I don't think i'd mind it, but if i'm ever paying money for rims, i want them such that i would not be able to point a single downside [for instance Work Equip02 14" with mad lip =P ].
Otherwise i completely agree with you and it's actually quite refreshing to see a six-spoke coned rim that's not TE37. Big Grin

I will not disagree with you on that. In many ways i´m a sucker for looks, and the Rota´s beat the Volk´s there IMHO. But thats a matter of taste, and that cannot be discussed.
I do more trackdays than drifting in my hachi, and my experience has shown me that 15"´s are better than 14"´s there.....so i´m guessing 16"´s will do the trick for me, or at least i can lay to rest, knowing that i gave them a chance.

If you're buying TE37s just for their looks, then you don't deserve them Cool Smile
Just buy the new DRAG work replica's, should be available in 14" with lippage.

Hi Peter.

I will have the Bronche colored Grids,
So you must have ordered white or gunmetal, as that is the only one they got in stock, right now, that is.

The small project that i´m making is just Turbo charging the Blacktop engine , that i already put in the car(adn drove for around 3000km),
There is just not the power needed to make it really fun,
But that will come with the parts, that i already got in the garage,
I just need to be able to say no, to the Impreza that´s always in need of power,
I have now desided, that when i finish the Impreza that i´m working on now,then it´s the Hachi´s turn.

New gze pistons,
Blok bored to oversize
W58 gearbox,
And all the bits needed, to make the hp

That i have now,

I'm not arguing, but can you explain WHY/WHAT you meant? meaning your 16" rims and tires are lighter, or did you mean something else? I'll assume you are using a wheel tire package of about 590mm(23.2")

Oh... I agree nice wheels! not BLING.....

You can |Sad .... OR you can ask for help!!!

Same here.....no as you say, they are awaiting stock on the bronze. Those are the ones that I have on "pre-order".

It was just that others said that there will not be more grip, with the 16" wheel,
But i´m sure, that i will be faster on a track with 16" wheels, compered to 14",
Even if both tire whith is ex. 195, and ít does not matter with the wheel weight(to a point),
But that will not be an issue here
