So I recently watched the movie 'The Wraith' and I decided i want Mesh Wheels like the Enkei Klassics seen here:

I'd want the black with the chrome or silver lip. I've found a few third party brands such as the axis klassics and in my color combo:

HOWEVER! None will fit our cars. Help me out please! as a reminder our rim size is 5x114.3 +35 and I'm looking for 17x8 or, 17x8.5.
 
well I want 17x8 or 8.5 not going skinnier or wider than that.

When it comes to re-drilling, what is involved and could the shop make +15 wheels into +35? Any idea on a cost?

I simply meant re-drilling the lug pattern. Not sure on the cost honestly, just shop around locally, Shouldn't be too expensive.
 
CCW lm 20's :thumb: or you could go with the replicas XXR 531's. which I personally love. They are not really mesh wheels but look good imho.
 
Actually +40 works just fine and should be a lot easier to find.
Not in a 8-8.5 on a 1g if you want to run a decent amount of tire...

What's the price range before I post links to BBS wheels of all sorts? Are we talking Volk monies or XXR monies?
 
haha well after some deliberation, I think I've decided on the xxr reaxion 531. Not exactly what I originally wanted but I've decided they are meant for sport and look more aggressive and the meshies are meant for the VIP look and not what I'm after.
 
Time...wasted. ;)

Those only come in 16s, homie.
 
the xxrs dont, there is a 17-19 variation. Its not time wasted... I'm very indecisive haha. Probably will change my mind 100 times before i buy. Will those privat meshies be alright for street/strip?

The ones you like are only 15-16"...I saw that in your link :p

Privat is an Enkie line. Id Ass-U-Me they's be fine. I don't see how they could be worse than Rotas or XXRs. :)

Edit: That Ebay auction for the knock-off RS wheels is pretty sweet. No idea on quality/mfr.
 
I am also a fan of rims like that, I have 91 Grand Prix rims on my 2g. There cheap 16x8 and are made by Enkei for G.M. You can look at my pics and see them. I'm polishing the lips on them right now. I'll post a pic up soon.

I know there only 16's, but there easy to find.
