by **triston** » Mon Aug 20, 2012 8:28 pm

Hi All,

just thought I'd pop up some photos of my car with the two different types of STI Enkei wheels, so have a look and comment on which you prefer if you like, unfortunately onset was taken with real camera and the others with ab iphone.

Personally I like the 2008 ones, those the photos don't look too great

I much prefer the 08s ever since Rota did a replica of the older style and now you see them everywhere.

I personally like the 06/07 ones

the center looks awesome and the shadow chrome *bling-bling*

6 of one, half a dozen of the other.

Hamish has a good point re the Rota Gravels..... but regardless I prefers the 2006/07s if I had to choose (i like the inner details of the 2006/07s, as the 2008s appear a bit too simple)

08 in Charcoal.

06/07 for me, i've always been a fan

I have the 06/07 and i have always liked the 08.

Buuuuuuuttt in the pics you have the 06/07 look better but in real life i think the 08's look classier and the 06/07 sportier!!!

So no real help unfortunately . Are the 06/07 silver or shadow chrome?? Cant tell as i like silver rims, not black etc etc

06/07 gunmetal for sure

I bought an 18 x 7.5 '06 for a spare, the sticker from AusPost read 15Kg...
Is the '08 similar in weight?

06/07 for sure

Postage was probably calculated as per weight or volume, whichever is greater. In this case volume, due to the size of the package.

I like the 06/07. More aggressive and look better with the STI nuts.

The 08s look bland.
