A close up head on of the wheels would be nice.

That's all I have. Was hoping someone would recognize them from a distance.

They look very similar to these SSR Type-Cs which are 17x7.5




The photo's are from Oldcracker's beautiful R56

Turns out they're Enkei rs5, but those look very similar! Do you happen to know any details about his suspension/tire size?

I'm running H&R street coilovers and the tire size is 225/45/17, it is way too tall... the tire place sent me the wrong size and I didn't wanna go thru the hazzle of returning it and waiting for new ones

lol I'm debating between 215/40 and 215/45 when they wear out
