Damn there are some really rad wheels in that lineup.
$546/wheel isn't too too bad... although buying extra rears would add up fast.

Those are kinda gangster!
And not expensive!

I read they are slightly bent, but would make good track wheels.
I'll keep an eye on'm!

Those truck wheels are actually pretty rad! Some of those Weds are pretty gangster too.
:D

Someone just posted up a set of Racing Dynamics on bimmerforums... they're the RGR's... not the RGP's like mine. 17x8, 17x9, ET38 all around.

Image
Tempting... but I don't have $800 to spend right now on wheels that aren't exactly what I'm lookin' for.

With the new set I nabbed on eBay, that gives me 4 fronts, and 5 rears. If I can by chance find a lone 17x9.5 ET20, that would give me three full pair of rears, and I would be awesomely set.

The saga continues.

Dan Chadwick has a set of those on his RX7 as "street wheels" Got them dirt cheap on close out a few years back.
