yeah, I wanted to do +12 all around, but they'd have to be specially ordered.

I originally ordered some Gram Light 57Pros, but when they got ready to ship them, coming out the boxes, the rears turned out to be all Chrome instead of gunmetal.

Anyways, I was told its the only set in that offset in the U.S. so I naturally jumped on the deal. They are the Face 2, so the faces are sunken/caved in :D

I'm going to run 225/40 up front and 245/40s, Dunlop FM 901s in the rear-they should clear without too much problems

I think most people are going to assume you got 57Pros, not 57SPros. I think they're going to look incredible. I've been impressed by your taste in mods for a long time. Good call, man. :)

i think Ni Yon Zenki was referring to the 57C Pros or whatever was on Imamuras FD before the new 57S Pro

how much did those set you back?

Nice man, I looked into those for a bit, then saw on Rays japan site that they had released the new T57-RC's. I ordered a set of those in 17x9 +22 all around for mine about 2 months ago, still waiting for them.... wish i had gone +12 for the rear now though :(

i hate the spokes thats all
its like a wanna be te37
the lip is cool but the overall face design imo is poor.

imo i think you should have waited and ordered some badass Agle Minerva or VSKF or something like that..or Equip. retarded lip (espeically AGLE MINERVA) and just a wait time
i think it wont be so cool on s14..the shape doesnt match

but dood thats just me. im sure will end out ok.
18s in front? :(
the rear size is good, nice size and offset though, 10 +20 looks great on s14!! for realzz

Well if you are going that wide of a wheel you just might as well run a wider tire. I mean you can run a 225 on a 7.5 with no bulge really. If its for looks only then no biggie I guess but it wont help traction to much. Maybe good for drifting?? I dont focus on that stuff to much.

yea, i really like the 57S. but when the 57SPro came out, it got even better. a fuckin lip! haha. bahh, if i had the money id settle for 57S...but for now wheels arent gonna be coming in for a while. sigh...anyway, good choice tho man, im right with you. get some pics up when you slap those puppies on
