    Bronze/bronze-grey look great on a black NA. Matches nicely with the tan interior.

    Thank you sir. Btw do you have a build thread anymore? I see something that says 2,020 lbs 1996 1.8. Would like to see all the work you've been up to lately.

    I do on a local forum, but I'm just going to start a build thread here one of these days so you don't have to go through pages upon pages of people just talking. Everything interesting will be in the first post lol.

    There's the D-Force LT5 that's a 15x7 right at 13 lbs. Available in 25 and 30mm offsets. Available at Vorshlag.




    But if you're up for a challenge, this 15x10 Weld with a 6.25 backspacing weighs in at 12.15 lbs and barely peeks out from the stock fenders when set at zero camber.

    ^ I had those for my NC and they're actually closer to 15 lbs. I don't know why the internets say otherwise.

    Probably because you had the 93+ models. ;) The "reinforced version."

    I've had both sets. My 92s came in at 13.8lbs. My 94s came in at 15.2lbs.

    I've seen the d-force in person and driven on them (e30) great looking wheels and quality on the cheap.
