whats a good looking 15" wheel for the NX ? im thinking some thing like this http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/wheelrack/wheel_images/Kosei/K1_Racing.KW.dw.gif

They look good to me!:cool:

How about the Rota circuit-8?
Perfect offset for our cars, and weighs only 8lbs! I have a set on order right now, I'll tell you how they look when I get them on.
You can see them at www.rotawheel.com

Hey Nick. Did you mention that you'll be going to BCIT soon or was is someone else? If so, I assume you'd be coming to Vancouver, and I would not recommend that you buy the Circuit 8's. The reason being that you'd get laughed at by most other import drivers for rolling around on fake Mugen rims and I want to save you the embarassment. It sucks and I know it's a lame reason...but think about it. The Kosei's are great rims and I'd recommend those.

Ouch. never saw that coming. the friggin rims just got here, all i have to do is pick them up. shit. yeah, I agree the kosei's look good, but aren't they super expensive? I doubt you're interested anymore, but the price would be the same for you; 900 bucks plus shipping from T.O. to B.C.

I got some white Kosei K-1's 15" rims with Pirelli P700's for under $800 shipped to me. (They are $139 for each wheel from tirerack.com)

I like the look with my maroon NX.

I don't know what the total price would be like for the Canadiens

Volk TE37s :D

And no import guys have laughed at them yet...

nice wheels, that's for sure, the ultimate. but i dont have that kinda cash.....

Well, where I live (Vancouver BC) the Kosei's are available cheaper than the Circuit 8's.

yeah im goign to BCIT soon, i could care less about a bunch of ricers laughing at me, but i could see them geting swiped fast if they were mistaken for mugen rims.
but rims are away off on my things to buy list unless i come acros some awsome deal.

come to think of it, another rim that might look good on our cars is the Konig Traffik. Especially if the car is red and you get the red trim ring. I know they were selling them for like 100 bucks us a rim like 2 months back on discount tire direct. In order to keep the rims from getting stolen, I am buying those 7-sided lug nuts. Keeps theives away and they weigh practically nothing.

i use to have 17" enkei suzuka's on a marroon nx, they looked sweet, email for pics, but im getting a black nx now, so i think i will get some nice 17" Gunmetal rims. i never liked them before but they are growing on me big time!

We'll have to meet up for a little egg meet when you get here!

The problem is not the ricers, it's the highly respected tuners and shop people that will laugh at you. But you're right, who the hell cares! Do what you want :)

I used to race on a set of those koseis K1's...if you want a few pics of an NX with those wheels on it email me>>

Sakerocket@cox.net

and I can send them to you..... they have 205/50/15 race tires on them so they look kinda big.....

Ya, the circuit 8's are a knock-off of the Mugen MF-10 or wutever, but you gotta hand it to rota for producing a high-quality, light weight and fairly affordable rim. BTW, the slipstreams are actually a knockoff of the Regamaster rims, not the spoon.
