yeah looked into these. I have a gen3 gtb wagon so they are too wide and will scrub (badly) & the offset doesnt help.

Thanks tho

Cheap knock offs! If im not mistaken, its $999 for 1. Therefore they are more expensive than the genuine Enkeis! ($475 from JapParts) :?
Correct me if im wrong! :?:

$990 for set of 4.

And as for cheap knockoffs, boo hoo. I'd rather Rota than f**king horrible 20" dolche chrome shit people put on their car which cost a lot more. And if comparing to OEM wheels, at the end of the day, unless you are tracking your car and worried about kg saving of having genuine Enkei's, these will look better IMHO being wider and shallower offset, while saving many $$ for other modifications.

Id 100% agree with that. But I'd rather have the real thing than a copy and they really arent that much more.

I paid 30% more than the above Rota price including McGard nuts couriered to the closest depot.
