A pic of my new rims: Volk Racing LE28N...

Today I got 2 out of 4 of my LE28N's for my RSX-S, the other two are still on backorder for another 3-4 months They are gunmetal with polished lip in 18X7.5" with Toyo T1-S 225/40-18's and I also got the Rays lug nuts in anodized black. Total weight with tires is 37lbs. I must admit they are frickin' amazing to see them in person and well worth the wait.

Those are OK...But I like these better:


jk

Those are beautiful....you're da man!

I had to wait a month and a half for my rims and it was worth it. At least you don't have to drive around on hubcaps like I did.

I can't wait to see them on the car!

those are hot, i really like them.

i really do hope you're not going to ride around with 2 pimp *** wheels and the other 2 of some other kind... that's just wrong. plsu think about it lol, when or if you sell them you'll be like "the left two have "x" miles on them and the right two have "y" miles on them, you'll sound goofy. but hell i know you're not even thinking about selling them, evAR

Did you read what they were for? RSX Type S...225/40 is almost perfect to match stock diameter.

37lbs with tires, is that good for 18's? I know what wheel weights are good, but I'm not sure what tire weights are good. My wife has a rsx type-s and she wants 18's, but it's going to be a while. I get rims first because my car needs it more.

37 lbs is incredible for 18's. My 17's are 36 with tires and they're on the very light side of 17" rims. There's nothing like forged...
