Need help choosing

Looking to square up 19s all around on the G87. I am stuck on a few options from Kansei (grey or silver) and Superspeed (satin bronze). Both offer a military discount which is great and can land me a set of 4 19x9.5 for under $1500.

If anyone is good at photoshop and has time to overlay these wheels on a g87 picture, that would be amazing.

For the sake of hearing opinions, which of these wheels would you pick for a red g87? I’m digging the look of the Kansei as it’s not something you see often, but at the same time, they have some JDM to them and not sure how that would look on the G87. The Superspeed look more euro and could work nicely. Any other suggestions for sub $1500?

Without commenting on the size of the rims, and solely based on pattern, P1 for the win.

Wheel #3, especially if it has a nice concave.
Unless you want similar to what most everyone else will be on.

About to pull the trigger on the Superspeed RF05RR in Satin Bronze. I am going to keep the stock 19/20 setup as the difference at the end of the day is only $160 and if I wanted to run 19's square, I would need to buy tires immediately. If i keep the stock sizes, I can run the OEM tires till the winter, then order a set of UHP All seasons to get through the cold here in NJ.

Looking at 19x9.5 et10 for the front and 20x9.5 et10 in the rear. Any downside to going to a 9.5 wide in the back versus the 10.5 oem size?

For $1400 shipped to my door, I am pretty happy with what Superspeed offers. I ran their wheels on my TTRS a few months ago, quick shipping and great prices.

Why not 20x10.5 ET12 and you can keep the OE tire/wheel specs? Otherwise your tires will be a bit squeezed and you’ll lose some performance.
Is it much more money for the 10.5?

It’s a nominal amount, but it gets the total over $1500. I told the wife that I’m keeping it below $1500 and I want to honor my word.

I see that 9.5 is the min wheel width that a 285 should be on. Daily driving and the fun weekend drives, am I really going to notice the difference? Never ran narrower, always wider.

Bet you’d never notice the difference!
Was just curious why the choice. Should be ok.
Any chance you can show the willtheyfit schematics to your wife and get a final stamp to go a tad over 1500?
Get her back next time she wants something lol

Ok, last round of me asking for opinions. I was pretty sure I wanted to pull the trigger on the Superspeed RF05RR in Satin Bronze. However, after seeing Jackie Ding's G87 with the Titan 7 six spokes, I started to reconsider, and they look WAY easier to clean versus the split Y spoke style. Superspeed has their version of a six spoke, in black and bronze. I see lots of G8x owners running the TE37 (No way I can afford those) and it looks pretty sweet.

What are your thoughts of a six spoke (black or bronze) on the G87?

Not a japanese car, it’s a no from me dawg.
But, tastes differ. They should indeed be easier to clean.

That's where I am feeling conflicted. I grew up on JDM cars (early 90s kid) and I love the JDM wheel style from Kansei and Superspeed. Some parts of the G87 has some R34 GTR to it, mostly the headlight and front bumper angle and the left/right corners of the rear bumper.

Feeling torn between keeping true to euro fashion and going with a split Y or a mesh style, but also wanting something different and never tried running a 5 or 6 spoke. Closest was a 10 spoke on my TTRS.

Maybe I should open my search for 5x120 wheels and just run 12/18mm adapters. So many choices...ugh. Good problems to have I guess. Just really tired of black mesh style wheels, and tired of spending an hour cleaning them.

I finally pulled the trigger. Was $400 above my budget, but at least got these for less than $2k. Very excited and I think the gunmetal color will pair nicely with Toronto red.
