Got a thing for Rays hunh?

The 57Pro is over done, and the FN01Cs are WAY overdone. Get the CE28s. Or the CE28Ns. Or the CE28LM. They are all fantastic.

None... All the spokes are to skinny. You will need big brakes to make them look good.

None of the above....

I voted for the 57Pros purely on aesthetics...but you can be more original than that.

How about some of the following:

-deep Dish RS8 Watanabes (yes, available brand new in almost any size/offset)

-Weds SA90 Forged

-Work Equip

-Work meister 3-pc

Or how about something original and old-skool, like what Rico did (he has old Manarays). Sein Racing perhaps?

those alloys suck.

for 240sx bigger much presense of metal is a good thing. you dont want to see your brake calipers in a 240.

like i said, make sure alloy looks heavy and covers most of the rotor, while its lighter.

If you can afford them, get the volks. The CE28N is incredibly light, its one of the lighter wheels available. I don't see how you're looking at FNs and CE28s at the same time though...there's a $300+ price difference per wheel.

Finally decided on what wheel to get and it was not on the poll. I was talked in to getting some Racing Hart CP-FTuneR.
