Huh interesting. I mean I can always try to low ball it, I don't like low balling but for most part I wanna get most updates on my FRS in $6-8K CAD budget. And thats pretty much all visuals and minor power improvements mods. So the budget is tight.

What is bit fishy is "MADE IN RUSSIA" as Eastern European that made me laugh pretty hard... I don't know how much I can trust Russian quality.

Eh. Might as well get the Enkei EV5's more fitting to my preference. Sucks its in one colour and choosing wheels for a Silver car is a pain in the ass.

Yeah I've always found it strange for a Russian wheel to be so popular among the JDM crowd. But a ton of reputable tuner companies use them, so who am i to judge?

They were/are made in a factory that made aircraft parts, with very good QC. The wheels had to pass QC again by Japanese standards. Forged using a die rather than cut from a block of aluminum.

As far as suggestioins for 5 spoke star shaped wheels: look at OZ Futura, SSR/Desmond Koenig Specials and Stern Face 2.
