just took some more pics today, in the sunshine. I need to get em into pshop & shrink 'em down.

I wasn't sure i'd like them & since they were for the track I wasn't worried, but damn they look good. these give the car a whole different look not flashy like my HREs, but more serious. What little driving I've done I definately can tell that my acceleration is a good bit quicker than with the 19s.

I could never get a weight from anyone and I didn't weight them B4 tires were mounted. Idon't have a good way to weight them other than a bathroom scale. for some reason 18lbs sticks in my mind but who knows....

Bathroom scale would be fine, just weigh yourself and then again holding one of the wheels. We can probably find the weight of the RA1's pretty easily.

Awesome setup. Looking to do something similar as a track setup except with 265's on all corners. Whats the average street price of CE28's in that size? Are they available in 17's?

Still can't get a decent photo. camera sucks did a little editing in ACDSEE.

I paid a bit over 2100 for the set. Yes they are available in 17"

Awesome wheels, great color. Must be nice to be able to get Volks just for tack wheels.

What's the offset for the front? Reason I ask is, I have same size Gram Lights coming and they damn well better fit over my BBK.

front offset is 28

thanks chicken, that shows the wheels & bbk off a bit better ACDSEE just doesn't quite cut it for editing don't have Pshop at the office (not that i'm any good at it)

the weights per the bathroom scale are 40 for the front tire & wheel & 45 for the rear. the tires are shaved so who knows how much weight was whacked off for that process.
Gave em a good heat cycle last night and removed them 'till track time.

thanks all for your compliments

They are available in 17". Depends on how wide you want to go.
