05RedGTWagon Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Here are the two summer wheels I'm considering. Enkei TS9 - 18x8 OZ Superturismo LM - 18x7.5 I'm leaning towards the OZs for look and 7.5" width, but the TS9 are cheaper, and easier to clean. Which would you pick? http://legacygt.com/forums/picture.php?albumid=2236&pictureid=10366 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eliott Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I like the bottom ones. Get some good wheel cleaner and it won't be as much of a pain. You should make a poll between the options btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJr Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 Bottom! Get some good cleaner and one of these: [ame=http://www.amazon.com/Speedmaster-Speed-Master-Wheel-Brush/dp/B00E9E76F0]Amazon.com: Speed Master Wheel Brush: Automotive[/ame] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted April 21, 2015 Share Posted April 21, 2015 the bottom ones look like 18" version the 2011 WRX wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05RedGTWagon Posted April 21, 2015 Author Share Posted April 21, 2015 Thanks everyone! I'm sold on the Superturismo's. Now, here's the catch. The 7.5" width is a special order and takes 6 weeks to get from Italy. Should I just go with the 8"? The both offsets are 48mm, so the 7.5" will extend 13mm further out and the 8" will extend 20mm further. As I'm typing this, 7mm seems pretty insignificant.

GTEASER Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 Superturismo's are the right choice. What size tire you want to run? 225? GTEASER's 2012 Legacy GT - Sold GTEASER's 2009 XTeaser - Sold GTEASER's 1992 Legacy SS - Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted April 22, 2015 Share Posted April 22, 2015 why would you want 7.5 to begin with is beyond me... ENKEI has different line up of wheels, their lower lineup of street series is just whatevers in terms of quality You can get much better product for similar price, but ENKEI's Race series is a total different story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know about enkei's models. I'm definitely going with the O.Z.s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drift Motion Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 width doesnt have as much effect in terms on fitment as offset offset plays a much bigger roll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
05RedGTWagon Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 width doesnt have as much effect in terms on fitment as offset offset plays a much bigger roll You are correct. In this case, both wheels have the same offset of 48mm. I'm going to go with the 8" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
