    Option Lab wheels!!!

    Any of you guys running these? I may be picking up a set soon since their prices are pretty reasonable, and I could always use a spare set of wheels. :) they're about $800 a set, and the quality seems to be better than Varrstoen amd XXR. I may be doing some fitment testing on my car once I get it back up and running, so contact me if you're interested in buying a set and I may be able to get you a good price!!!

    Just a question on quality: What makes their quality any better than other replicas? Is it more a question of the finished quality, or the structural quality?

    A bit of both actually. There's a couple shops here in SoCal who are big dealers for Varrstoen who have been getting a high rate of returns due to cracking paint and blemished wheels. The finish and coating on these wheels is very nice, and I will be testing them on the track in the coming months as well :)

    Nice! Well, I'm interested in their durability. Subscribed!

    Also, what's the weight per wheel? Right now I'm running TDR Pro Race 1.2 17x9, and they're closer to 19lb per wheel without a tire.

    I believe the weight is around 22-24lbs per wheel, which is 2-3lbs lighter than the work cr kai's I had in the same size.

    Azian, I'm actually running these on my Evo X. The blue evo on the site is my car. As far as durability, it has been track tested on a white Evo X at Buttonwillow. I'll see if I can find the footage of their track day.

    subscribed... I want to remove some stigma for a unknown brand which could be good for a spare set :)
