Enkei Rims

Postby Maserati » February 19th, 2008, 7:12 pm

Are these enkei rims common or not?
Any reviews on enkei products, I know they are well respected manufacturer in the autosport community.

enkei are not that common, cuz not everyone could afford them......that particular style has been discontinued i think.......but when it was sold i saw only about 3 cars with them.
generally i'd think that they are good products.....i considered buying a set recently.........
if some manufacturers use enkei as OEM, like on the evo 8, then it should be more than enough quality for the average fella. :fadein:

Enkei Shoguns are in fact discontinued as cacasplat said. Enkei's are generally good rims.Shoguns may be a little hard to come by,but if'n you can a set,get orn!

Funnily enough I saw the Arashi's on a hatchback Civic coupla days ago. Rims nice but the guy had them painted in a gunmetal colour that I really wasn't feeling :?
