Soooo, at first (as some of you know) I was thinking Enkei RPF1's, because Rays TE37's are expensive. Id like to have forged over cast, but Enkei's are light and not to bad price wise. Then I found a wheel that is cheaper then TE37's, but is forged, and pretty..soo, heavily leaning towards Work Emotion CR Kiwami's. Just trying to decide, 9.5 wides on each corner? or 9.5 up front, 10.5 in the rear...leaning towards 9.5 on each corner atm I'm thinking.

Nice wheel choice. I think the square set up sounds the best.

Look up tire prices in the widths you want. You might find yourself limited in selection . also you may want to not do staggered wheels as it may induce understeer.

I have, lol, been looking at wheels prices and sizes for like a week now ;) And yeah, that's why I'm leaning away from it. Stock set up is staggered, and the Z does have a tendency to understeer. Sure it'd help.

the Kiwami's are the more dished version of the CR Kai right?

If you go staggered I reckon it might look better with Kai's up front and Kiwami's on the back. It'd look more racecar and less stancedbro

They might be more dished, but what they really are, are the Kai's replacement if anything. Kai's are no longer produced, the Kiwami's are like improved Kai's, redesigned to be lighter, but more durable ;Averaging 2 pounds lighter then Kai's (depending the size (apparently)).

ah fair enough.

I got a quote on CR Kai's from Work Wheels Australia about a month ago, maybe they were leftover stock from before. looking at their website it looks like the Kiwami's are available flat or concave anyway.

Probably, and can't tell if in my sizes they even offered in anything other then concaved, lol
