    Well my friends, I am in quite the predicament. I cannot decide which route I would like to take for my 2nd set of wheels...

    1. 04 OEM BBS

    2. Enkei RPF-1. Lighweight, strong, oldschool JDM look.

    3. 5Zigen FN01R-C. Lightweight, strong.

    not a huge fan of the 5-zigens i would go with the rpf-1's, and if you can afford it you should look at volk ce28's ;):D

    My preference the entire time has been the enkeis, but I thought I would ask :)

    5-Zigen FN01R-C are pretty nice looking, pretty light too. they look a bit like the gram lights, but ALOT cheaper. but if you're trying to keep it JDM looking, yeah the enkeis... although-what's wrong with the bbs?

    of course if i didn't care about the bank account...

    if you are going to continue with the track day stuff or do an occasional autoX you may' eventualy want to use some wider tires, like 255s or 275s... So although the stockers are the best bang for buck, the 53 ET won't fit more than a 245 with camber bolts. You will want a 48 or 45 et so that would could fit bigger rubber later.

    I made this mistake, but that means now I get to have two sets of track/autox tires :)
