I can understand HRE is a bit to glitzy but Kinesis owns all. The best service, fastest turn around time, best quality, best finishes ie anodizing, and fitment, any offset, any lip style.....they are nice wheels plain and simple. You cant get that with most jap wheels and if you do custom order something prepare to wait like 4-5 months. Plus they are real race wheels used in many racing series liek ferrari cup unlike HRE's and CCW's. If I had the $$ I would put these on a sexy car like a FD or something with the proper offset...after consulting my offset specialist first
Kenisis are ok on RX-7s but Fikse and CCW are usually the better choice. HRE's are glammor wheels for german cars.
BTW wheel fitment is easy:
33mm x .0394 = 1.3002
offset times mm/in ratio
*remember to add one inch to listed wheel width since most are only bead to bead.
backspace = offset + (width / 2)
frontspace = (width / 2) - offset
FD specific (stock)
backspace limit 6.625"
frontspace limit 3.0"

HRE, I-FORGED, KINESSIS --->
I am undertermined about Fiske because I haven't seen that many in person. But from pictures they look like the rest of the shit listed above.
EDIT: One more thing wheel FITMENT is EVERYTHING.

Terry in my opinion has the best taste in wheels from his comments on choices and what he runs on the Darwinmobile....the wheelman has spoken.

Kevin is an extremist who's from the Mick Jagger school of wheels .." I see a panasport and I want to ....paint it bllaaack, I see some cobra R's and I want to paint them blaaacckk" etc etc...not that there's anything wrong with that.
