RAYS CTR FK8 Spec Wheel Options

Here’s what that looks like if anyone is interested. Now my next question is: for anyone running the 57CR, what lug nuts did you go with? Tolerances are super tight and the 949Racing nuts don’t fit

Probably safest with Rays or some other major brand tapered lug nuts. I wouldn't run the stock lug nuts on your 57CR for too long. They're the improper lug type for those wheels.

Thanks for the recommendation, I should have Rays or Kics on soon, won’t drive it unless necessary until then. The lugs I have on are not stock, they’re tapered acorn nuts so it’s all good.

Ahh I see. Thanks for the clarification.

I'm a novice when it comes to wheels.

Could someone explain why 18x9.5 +38 is recommended over 18x8 +45? Both are available for the 57Transcend and are confirmed as compatible with the FK8.

Just fitment and tire choice preferences. 9.5 +38 is going to give a more flush look and allows for running wider tires. 8 +45 is going to be more sunken in and I believe is narrower than the OEM wheel, but you could still run a 245 on it.

I don't know about that wheel specifically, but you probably get a more concave face on the 9.5 wheel which most people find more attractive.

Am I the only person that wishes for 18x8.5 or 19x8.5 +60 wheel options?

Could try to find FK2 wheels I guess?

Yeah, that's pretty much my only option. Sucks that there aren't any lighter weight choices available.

Those wheels are Rays Volk CE28's in what looks like Diamond Dark Gunmetal finish.
