    New shoes!

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    As some of you may or may not remember, I was looking to get a new set of wheels a while back. Well, it was quite an adventure (don't ask ) but I was finally able to procure a set of these:





    18" Enkei RPM2 (Bortex) in HyperSilver. The best part is that they weight only 19lbs. per rim!

    Big props to Carson (littlewhite) for hooking these up !

    Wow, you have great taste when it comes to wheels :-)


    FYI: They are a PITA to clean, but IMO, well worth the effort. Got some wax or sealant on them ASAP, this will make cleaning them much easier in the future.

    Lol, right back at ya ! Yea, I've washed them once already and it def took longer than my old wheels. I'll definitely get them waxed once this dreadful weather clears up.

    Just found out from Enkei USA today that these Bortex RPM2 wheels are no longer in production.
