I have, a lot of people have said..."I love those wheels, you can really see the huge brakes behind them"...etc.

I have to agree. I would love to get another set in black for autocrossing and track days with Dunlop Z1's.

Yep, coworkers have 'expressed approval' of the rims. "Thanks, I like em' as well", I said.:wink:

I'm really surprised at how much I like the car and everything about it, including the OEM style 264 wheels.

Same here. I also agree how nice they are to clean. At first I really wanted to get 261's, but the 264's have really grown on me.

Very easy to clean, Chris. You just have to watch for the brake shield plate, because it takes your knuckles off, if you reach thru the spokes to clean the backside of the wheels.

I LOVE the 264's, I don't know why people want the 261's, YUK.

OR put some NASTY after-marked UGLY wheels that aren't designed for the car. If I was to change the wheels I would spend $5k + and really improve the car, and not only for looks. FORGED HIGH QUALITY REAL WHEELS. BRAH.

Buy a wheel brush.........it's the best thing I have bought for cleaning. Yuo can also clean between the brake and the wheel...No more bloody hands :thumbup:


AND....Yes I have gotten many compliments on the 264 wheels. I really wanted to get either 261's on something aftermarket, but I now think that I will keep the OEM wheels.

The 264's have a muscular look. Like when the Camaro IROC-Z wheels first came out YEARS AGO.
