I hate when I see people spend 800-1000$ on OEM or OEM knock off rims..
There are SOOOOOO many options out there to choose from that not everyone has plus IMO they look 10Xs better.
The girlfriend has.... Well as of yesterday (RIP car
) C5Zo6 rims on it.. But hell I only has around 150$ in the rims and tires so you can't really beat that.

[QUOTE=lemons12;12061285]Just got my new RPM rims mounted up and MAN AM I HAPPY!!!
i went with 18X9.5 in the back with 275s and 18X8.5 up front with 245s.
i dont have weights yet but i will get them ASAP.. im pretty sure they are heavier than stock though..
will also get exact measurements on the lips tonight..
sorry for the cell phone pics, will get quality pics in the next week or so hopefully..
if someone bitches about too many pics......
also, pics do NOT do these rims justice! they look 10X's better than any picture can make them look.. i was shocked when i first saw them on the car and i have seen many many pics of them mounted on various cars, including a silver ws6 lowered..
if you want me to take pics of anything or any requests/questions just let me know..

Are you sure about the measurements? Of all the sites I go to to look at these, they list them as 18x8 and 18x9. If they are 8.5 and 9.5, that is awesome. Have you measured them? I am chomping at the bit to order some, but I will go with 18x9 all the way around. That way I can rotate tires front to back. I would like the 19's but they are alot more money.

Are they difficult to keep clean? What do you use to clean them, Water and a microfiber towel? I will be getting those rims soon for my car and sure would like to know what i'm in for.

Thanks man, looks a little different now... Race Stars with 325s in the back. 
I am pretty sure those were correct measurements, I got them straight from the site. I never verified however.
Thinking about it though if they were a 9.5 I think they would have recommended a 295 tire, they recommended a 275 tire. Either way you could fit a 295 on there.
If you are wanting to rotate just go with a 275 on all 4 corners.
Thanks man, I kind of miss them honestly.

The only additional upkeep is it being a deep dish rim, any deep dish rim when it gets wet gets the lip disgusting. Other than that just a normal cleaning is all it takes. I took mine off about once a month to clean the insides to keep the streaks on the lips to a minimum if they got wet.
Yes, just a simple wash when you are washing the car takes care of them just fine.
