My car is carbon blue, so i'm definitly going with gunmetal. My options are to buy either used 18" gtn's or new g-games 17" or 18". Has anyone seen the difference between the 1 piece and 2 piece g-games? I mean, is it worth it? I'm on a trd drop, so I'm leaning towards 18s to get rid of some of the gap.

i like the ggames because they look more like the stock ones. i love the stock wheels, if only they were 17 or 18.... but yeah

The G Games have a less cluttered look to them. I'd get 17s if you're going for performance.

That is the hardest choice of your life....both of them are soooo tight. I love the g-games but also love the look of the GTN's. I have the knock offs in the Sokudo's and is saving up for the g-games. Go with 18's for sure.

If you get g-games, get the two piece 18's. The ones Discount Tire sells are the one piece, which don't look ver special IMO. GT-N's are very light, and would be a great choice.

Thing I'm going to go with the g-games, 18x7.5 225/40. I mean, has anyone actually SEEN the two and one piece up close, the two piece are like $400 more.... I could care less if the wheel was made out of 10 pieces but there better be some look or performance justification for the markup.

I seen it on Castrogts car. The g-games are badass for real. I am not sure if he has the one piece or 2 piece. Honestly I couldnt even tell. He has his pics in readers ride if you wanna check them out. But you cant go wrong with either one. I am sure there will be a lot more people with the g-games now since you have the GB going.

lol I just copied GB4C's interest thread to the groupbuy section to hopefully get it rolling. Those prices are pretty good, I'm trying to find out more about the 18's and tire options.

I have seen these these on a few RSX's and I must say that they look pretty lame. With g-games, its all about the polished lip, so I would say forget it unless you're going for the 2-piece wheel. And Chico is right, almost nodody has the 18" or 19" 2-piece wheels, and they are anything but played out. Just look at them on this Z. These are 2-piece 19's with the gold centers

I thought that even the 1 piece had a polished lip on them correct me if I am wrong its just a lot smaller lip on the 1 piece design due to the offset!!
Oh by the way I say G Games!!!!

Both choices suck, but If I had to choose, I'd pick the g-games.

1 piece is a machined lip, 2 piece is polished all the way through.

The G-Games and GT-N are both very nice, but I must say the first time I saw both of them in real life, the G-Games made me look a second time.

Just got the G-Games yesterday from VividRacing (who orders them thru Discount Tires) for $1525.

I'll post up pix of them by next week once I put them on my car and then hopefully it will help you decide if you want them or not.
