Default Work CR-Kai or XD9

What do people reckon about the work cr-kai or xd9 (low offset) on a stock soarer (94) with no bodykit?

is it going to be lowered?


Work XD9. This is a photochop on my car. Granted this doesnt have the lip that the XD9's do.

heres one of the CR-Kai's from another thread, but it has a bodykit on it. should give you a rough idea...


The CR-Kai doesnt have the lip of the XD-9, but i think they look better IMO.

not a fan of either design but i guess the XD9 looks the best. i prefer mesh with a big lip.

cr kai in 18", probably 10.5" wide(dont remember if they have that width maybe only 10", and low teen offsets.

oh cant forget being slammed

xd9 look cheap to for some reason...dont ask why

if you want a cheaper version of the cr kai's get some rota's. they look the same and come in low offsets designed for a 350z. would work great on out cars too

Are you thinking about getting rid of your BBS?

If so, what are you going after - looks or performance? Lip or spokes? Trying to fit a wider tire?


Just curious.

Here I actually took this pic for you after class today.

They're 18x8.5 all around, et something +38 I believe on 235/45/18 stock suspension.
