I don't know much about them, but with a "you get what you pay for" attitude, 250$ a wheel is a pretty high price for most of the low quality reps. And considering Rotiform cast mono block wheels cost no more than 70 or so bucks more for wheels an inch or 2 bigger, they shouldn't be bad. And in that thread, i don't see any "fake wheels" complaints so i think they must be of pretty decent quality. None of this i know for sure, but just trying to investigate things to help you out

Thanks man I appreciate it.

I did some more digging and unlike XXR or brands along those lines, Klutch doesn't have a bunch of different wheels. Yes, they've only been around since 2012 but XXR isnt much older and they have tons of options. XXR are also a lot cheaper. These klutch wheels, specifically the sl1 are around the same price as enkei are as well. Whereas a full set of XXR or Rota, etc is the same price for a pair of enkei or klutch.

Yeah that's how i usually tend to look at wheels, but sometimes you do have to be careful cause a higher price may just end up being a ripoff.

True. But I've seen klutch wheels consistently around $1K for the 16x8 through klutch republic themself or other online retailers. 16x8 would really set the stance of this car better. Lot less tire which would work out greatly so I don't keep destroying fenders lol

I would rock the shit out of that, looks great.

Link the images directly onto the post though, us S/W people are too lazy to click links.

So got a couple things going on now. Bought a grip royal plumcrazy wheels coupled with bsweitzer99 custom adapter. Should be arriving soon.



Next, put my enkei up for sale. I'm going with 16x8 like other people here suggested I do for a tighter fitment with chewing up my fenders. Still going with a mesh style rim and changing the color.



And also re did more of the interior, stock interior comes beige/tan and now it's satin black.

Apologies if I missed it earlier in the thread, but what are you using to refinish the interior plastics, and what do you think of it? I like the finish you're getting out of it.

I used dupli color vinyl and fabric spray. Simply wash and wet sand with 600 grit sandpaper with warm soapy water. Then clean with prep spray and tack cloth and spray several light coats. It dries to touch in 30 mins and to handle in a few hours. No complaints so far

[Oh Damn, it's Sam]

Right on, thanks. Keep us updated on how that spray performs when we get into the heat of the summer. That's been my only problem with that kind of stuff in the past, that it get sticky when it heats up.

Actually, the pillars were the last pieces I did to finish the black conversion. I did my dash and other panels during the summer and I never had problems with anything being sticky.
