New rims, finally

I've finally taken the plunge and got 17'' Enkei RS7's in anthracite. I was considering the bolder look of bronze, but I chickened out, plus I didn't think it'd look as good.

They come Friday, and will hopefully be on Saturday! I'm probably one of the few here that don't care much for stock EX rims, and I'll be glad to get them off.

I was actually debating between the OR52's and RS7's. The OR52's have do a have that better, more defined lip, but I liked the small center and thinner spokes of the RS7's; it makes the rim look larger/more open to me.

Surprisingly, I haven't come across anybody with the gunmetal/polished lip rims, and I spend 2 hours on the freeway a day, lol. I must not be looking hard enough!

Yeah, in fact I was looking at your rims earlier, before I ordered. They look good, I liked both styles equally, it was a tough decision.

I got them at whalentires.com for $964 with 215/45 Falken Z-512's. I may have bought the last set though, as their stock status seems to have changed, heh.
