Default CCW Replica XXR 531?

So I came across these at a local shop. The guy can get me any size I want but in order to do so, I need help on figuring out the offset.
I found these online. a nice 18/19 combo would be nice. Would anyone happen to know which would fit? 18x9.5/19x10 would be nice with a nice lip.

I personally think they look like crap in person, I can tell them from real CCWs from 100 feet away but according to that website the only ones that come in our offset are 18x8.5 not 9.5.

Damn, I would really like some of those in 17x9 and 17x10. How much would one have to adjust with a 20mm offset?

You wouldn't have to do anything. That's not a crazy offset at all.

add up the total cost,2nd hand ccw s with good tires run in the 2000-2500 range,if your only going to save 350-500 bucks its best to hold out for a good deal,and would be well worth the extra cash

The reason I ask is because He told me $500 a set. so no bigger size would fit aside from the 18x8.5

You can be in a set of XXRs for well under $1000, if you like the wheel thats a huge saving IMO. That would enable you to put all new tires on all 4 for what youd have in just the CCWs alone.

My issue is the rears actually look good with a lip but the fronts never look as good for some reason.

Just my $0.02 worth.....

Look closely at NLMotoring's website. Notice anything unusual? Nowhere do they mention a business address, and I don't recall seeing a phone number either. Do you really want to do business with a place that's that secretive? In other words, have an issue with something you bought from them, and you'll NEVER be able to track them down...at least not easily...

I just LOVE the look of the ESM-002's.....In fact, the early CCWs (mid-late 1990s) were based on that "crosslace" center design, and I had a set of them (16x9.5) on my Z-28 at one time. For some reason I got stupid, wanted to try another look, and sold them. My mistake.....

those bolts might just be "bling" and not real 3pc wheel bolts. Why? Because I have Konig wheels on my DD civic that looks like Work S-3 and those bolts are just plastic and they break away some times...



and the real CCWs.


get the real one. you could find a set for fair price!

For $150-175 each, did you expect REAL 3 pc. wheels??

I agree. I have seen these CCW replicas start popping up in my area (Northern California). You can tell from a mile away that they are fake and they overall look cheap. Don't support these companies that copy others wheel designs. With the cost of used high end wheels, just wait around for a deal on the real thing. They do pop up from time to time, on many occasions they come with tires and are ready to mount.

That wheel in black would be closest to Ccw replicas.
