Thanks. Just placed the order for the wheels today. Now more waiting. Ugh.
I have always liked white wheels on a white car :thumbsup:. Definitely looking forward to seeing how these turn out. I think they are going to look really good :)

Quote from another thread:
The focus Rs is 350mm too, but thanks that does help too.
That said not all 18s will clear, for example Workemotion XD9 have a thicker barrel so it doesn't clear Evo X set up at the barrel.
Mate's walked that path and had to sell them and get SA3Rs and RE30s

Cool stuff didn't know Focus RS ran 350mm too. But on top of the disc, the caliper size will also play its part.
Some brembos seems to be a bit more beefy than others, tho I'm not sure if that is because of disc size or piston size.


^^ careful with work wheels.. I know XD9's are different, but the 2piece CR's look to have a slightly narrower barrel due to the 2 piece. Badass old school wheel. Not my cup of tea, dish on FWD vehicles but it'll still look amazing!
What is a 2 piece?? I'm not keeping up.. the Type R front rotor?

2 piece wheels where the barrel and the face are individual pieces then put together unlike monoblock wheels. These are the two Emotion 2 piece wheels from Work.

The civic si comes out next month and still no price. Im starting to believe they wont give a price for the ctr at NYIAS -_-
Probably not, but I'm just looking forward to seeing it in person for the first time! Going Friday morning, even took the day off to go.
