Combo RE30 POST! 17x9 and 18x9's IN STOCK READY TO SHIP! Over 200 pieces! 8 colors!
OK guys, I had to close my other 2 threads because they were kinda getting out of control LOL. Also, since we're restricted on how many threads we can post at one time, I had to consolodate my 17x9 and 18x9 posts. Anyhow, here's the nitty gritty:
AND
All in one giagantic post!
To break it down, here's what we have:
18x9 +35 and 17x9 +35
DIAMOND BLACK
FLAT BLACK
D. BLUE
GUNMETAL
BRONZE
TITANIUM SILVER
MERCURY SILVER
GOLD
More pics for your viewing pleasure:
And "mounted" pics:
Matte Black
Gold
Diamond Black
Bronze
D. Blue
MERCURY SILVER
GUNMETAL
TITANIUM SILVER
Weights:
Here are are numbers we got on our scale:
This is an 18x9 RE30:
and this is an 18x9 CE28N (which we also have in stock BTW if anyone is interested)
Thats a .15lb difference between the CE and the RE, with the CE winning out. So, the CE wins the weight battle. However, with the RE being 30% stronger, the .15lb difference is rather negligible. And remember, these are 18x9's. Try that with an 18x9 CAST wheel. That would be BOAT ANCHOR STATUS. RE30 FTW!
This is an 17x9 RE30:
Ok guys, check it out. I just put these puppies on the scale and I was EXTREMELY surprised to find that they are LIGHTER than the 17x9 CE28N. The official word from Rays was that in order to compensate for the additonal 30% increase in strength, the wheel would weigh a bit more than the CE. But, from these results...I GUESS NOT HAHA. So now you get the best of both worlds....lightest + strongest wheel ever to come out of the Rays foundry. Check it out for yourselves:
And for comparison, the 17x9 CE28 weight:
And to those saying "but the CE has the center cap in it" ...
ok..so it's a 0.10 lb difference (so it's not much but hey, for those looking to push the weight to the extreme) I mean, I get guys asking me for weights for lug nuts...C'MON PEOPLE! LOL.
So that's basically it. We still have A GANG of these joints in stock and ready to ship. LET THE PM's BEGIN!
PM ME FOR PRICING!!
Thanks guys,

Actually....
Yes, I have 4 sets of 17x9 CE28N's that I have yet to post. Colors are FLAT BLACK, DIAMOND BLACK, and the ever-popular TITANIUM GUNMETAL.
Watch out for my post....
It's coming soon!
Actually, D.Blue is all sold out.
I still have others if you want to come by and check them out in person.
The wheels are pricey, yes. But, wheels are more of an investment than anything else. The strength and workmanship that accompany a forged wheel such as the RE30, pays off when you see others purchase a cheap, weak, cast copy. Then you read threads where the same people end up having to replace a wheel when they bend one hitting a pothole or running over an acorn or something.
LOL. Still got em! Hopefully the IRS will cash you out before we run out!
Everyone else requesting pricing has PM!
