So I was looking for a set of wheels for the track but ended up getting a set of wheels for the street and using the stockers for track duty.
I know they are not the fanciest or the lightest but they look nice (to me) and change the look of the car when I'm not at the track.
They are 20"x8.5" front and 20"x11" rear. The rear needed a small (3mm) spacer to clear the shock, most likely due to the amount of negative camber i'm running.
Anyway, here are some pics.

Nice, kinda tech-artyish....what are they and more importantly....how much?
yeah similar to TechArt, they are victor equipment wheels. welcome to the DUB family.
Nice rims! What
tires
are you running on with these awesome wheels?
Really nice rims! on a side note how does it ride on the street? is it a lot rougher?
Very nice rims Chris, great look. How do they ride?
Chris
They look great! How much?
They don't look so hot to me. But I never liked black rims. Anyways...glad you enjoy them.
wow.. lookin good there....
i think i like ur rims better then techart... urs got LIPS!!
great find!
I can't believe you can fit 11" at the rear with the correct offset and without touching the fender. What's the wheel offset?
Thanks guys!
The package was a great deal, $3200 with
tires
, tax in (14.5% here in QC) so that's about $2850 US.
The
tires
are Kumho KU31's and they are not so bad.

I am not overly concerned about outright performance for the street since I get all that out at the track...and I have like a million track days this year!! I run RA1's at the track on the stock wheels.
11" with a 275 rear tire fits fine in the fender, in fact we can still space it out more! The fronts are a 45ET and the rear is a 51ET I think.
The ride is actually not so bad at all. The sidewall's of the tires are more supple than the PS2's and that adds to the comfort factor. The turn in is not quite as crisp which is the only thing that sucks a bit. Outright grip seems to be more then enough to get into trouble on the street.
All in all, I like 'em and they look much better in person I have to say. I'll try to get a shot of the car rolling later on.
they do have a small lip but the techart wheels are concaved and look sweet....it's a pretty close knock off though. Wanna trade?
