How about 18" Enkei RS6 with Kuhmo Ecsta tires for $1036??

Hey all, what do you think about this package? 18x7.5 with Kuhmo Ecsta Supra 712 225/40-18 tires....


RS6 Silver

One piece aluminum
Inventory Status: Less Than 4 Offset: 38mm
Size: 18X7.0"
Weights 23.3 Pounds
Require tuner style lug nuts
Bolt Pattern(s): 5 on 100mm / 5 on 114.3(4.5 in) $1,036.00
Wheel Tire Package

This will be mounted and balanced, and shipping to my home is just $50... good deal? I kinda think so!

The same package with a 17 wheel and tire is about $750. $300 cheaper, I am tempted to just do that.

i liked the RS5 better, so i went with them... but they are decently light rims. i went with 17"s too, but because i didnt want to crack a rim around here. MASS has been havign crazy road work lately... i love the 17"s.

I like the wheels but not crazy about the lip on them. I kina wish I would have gone for 18" myself. Either way it soooo much better.
38mm offset is a good way to go. I would even go 35mm if you can. My rear wheels are inset just a tad with 40mm offset.

I have a set of 18" RS6's on my car. Everyone says that they look like 19's. I would recommend them, b/c like you, I got a great price too. One thing that is a must when you get them is that get the all steel valvestem. This is a must, and I mean must for these rims. For some reason the rim will cause the rubber part of the valve stem where it meets the rim to tear or separate therefore causing your tire to deflate slowly. I have had the steel valve stems on for a good 3 or 4 months now, and I have had no problems at all. Just thought you needed to know about the valve stem if you planned on getting the rims. Have fun and good luck.
