I believe Kornfeld and a few others run them
Do a search in 5x100
Pretty difficult to find used, have seen them as low as $500, have seen them quite a bit higher too, of course, depending on condish...

Thanks.  Zeal Function V6's and the wheels were 18x9 Varrstoens (wrapped in 235/45/18) that were +44 with a 17mm spacer on all 4 corners (since I had to change the bolt pattern to accomodate the wheels).

Probably my first and last set of brightly painted wheels.  lol.  I'll stick to gold colored wheels for now.

I'm  looking for a wheel set-up for the summer and i kinda like the ''stanced'' look but want to keep so kind of function for spirited driving when i feel the need :-)

I love rota grid, what about 17x9 but dont where to start with the offset thing... would like some ''concavtivity'' like yours....

Hahaha.  I like the car in Nimbus, but I think the only bright color I'd be going with is gold since it goes well with the Nimbus grey.

Right now I'm running 17x8 Privat Remembers wrapped in 205/45/17.  I have the car lowered to where the fender matches the tire tread height and I can drive spirited without have to worry about scraping anything.

Re: THE OFFICIAL SILVER(Arctic/Desert Silver and Gray) Thread

I just put new tires and wheels on mine this weekend. I got the tire and wheel package for $800.
Cell phone pics deal with it. I haven't owned a camera in over 5 years.
