No itā€™s not just you, Iā€™m a wheel whore lol

But I can say that these RAYS will keep me happy for a while. Luckily I came out positive after changing through these sets, but it has to do with timing as well. I found the rays on FB marketplace for $1200 wheels only. These are closer to $2600 brand new, and thatā€™s if you find a good dealer who might not have this color. I would only trade up from this point forward, when I land my next job and I get to go from garage to secure parking garage, Iā€™ll try to find some TE37ā€™s

Dude hell ya, I might just keep these as track wheels as well. They look and feel like much more expensive JDM wheels. And are SO LIGHT

replacing the studs isnt a big deal. you spent more time researching what fits then it would have been to simply purchase longer studs and keep what you had.

maybe im not understanding but the studs are like >$2 each
Just FYI, front extended studs on the Si (and FK7, apparently?) are a moderate PITA because the studs don't clear the knuckle with the hub installed on the car. So you have to remove the hub from the vehicle, link

Rear studs are easy, though šŸ‘
