OK! So that's what ET means... 22 or better, better meaning as close to 0 as possible?

Found it...

"ET: is the short form of the German word 'Einpresstiefe' which literally translates as 'insertion depth'"

I been telling you that......... duh.. But yea.. 15 or 20 would be perfect.....

Btw looking at that website you dont have many options..

I only see the Rpf1 (silver) with 19x9 with 18 offset ( would be fronts) 19x10 with offset 22 (rear)

Rp03, Gtc 01...... also....

Oh, I know what you meant. I just wanted to know what the word ET itself meant.. I knew it was referring to the offset. Seems like on most websites there isn't an indication what the offset (ET) of the wheels are.

search these forums about offset on the Z. +22 all around is a pretty good offset. Go +18 rear and +20 front for an really aggressive look and it will be the sh*t..youll end up needing to do a fender roll if so though with anything below 20, in my opinion.

correct me if Im wrong guys.

but yea, those 40 lb, cheap *** ebay "chromys" need to gtfo!

Those look real sick. I need to find something like that for my Redline...

There are so many to choose from, though.

The 18x9.5 +20 Torque's look great on a Redline Z.

Here is one of our customers car with the Torque's in Hyper Black (forum member taurran).





If you have any questions about these wheels be sure to send me a PM! They are in stock and we have some really affordable setups.

I think there is a redline in the redline pics thread with those wheels.

**** never mind. I think the one posted above is the redline I was thinking of.

I've been looking in the marketplace on these forums. There's some fairly good deals there. Gravis I by 5zigen wouldn't look too bad, and I like how some of the Tenzos look, but I've heard they aren't the best quality.
