I have Lenso DC5, which is essentially the same as S2 light with dual PCD hub and different colour. I reckon they are very good value for money...its very hard to find any lightweight (6-7KG) 17\" for $200.

Consider this, Enkei RPF1 (6.5KG) is $420, Buddy Club P1 (7.4KG) is $370 and forged rims like VolkRacing CN28 will cost you a fortune...so you cant go wrong with Lenso.

Gold wheels always look good on a red car.

Not black (the tyre and rim will just be an indiscriminate black mass).
White is a bit bright and a pain to keep clean (can you imagine cleaning those spokes).
Go the gold as long as it is not a too dark.

i am looking at getting these too now! they have quoted me 1699 delivered to brisbane with falken RT615's on them. seems a bit cheap. with fitting them is it simply bolting them on or would i need a wheel alignment too?

Yeah I've been interested in these rims. Nice and cheap, however I might end up getting mine painted. None of the colours suit titanium very well

I was under the impression that the DC5 was a similar design but a heavier wheel. What offset are the DC5's ?

What's wrong with black :)

I'm actually really happy I got black, they are already filthy with brake dust but you can't tell.

Yes it is. The centre hub is slightly thicker to accommodate dual PCD, other than thats its basically the same...weight wise its .2 or .3 KG heavier.

Offset is +42
