8 to be exact. ![http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/raSEcaR011.jpg](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/raSEcaR011.jpg) ![http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/raSEcaR012.jpg](http://i7.photobucket.com/albums/y293/jwashburn78/raSEcaR012.jpg) Falken Hanabi 15x7 **11 lbs** Got them from Hybrid, they will be more than happy to meet these prices… [http://www.edgeracing.com/wheels/falken\_wheel/](http://www.edgeracing.com/wheels/falken_wheel/) The new count for wheels dedicated to race rubber is now 24. I should apologize for not starting 2 polls (one for style, one for color) and letting you decide my wheels for me. I am kinda arrogant and for some reason think that I can make my own decisions. Foolishly I ended up buying the lightest 15x7 wheel at the best price and bought both colors available. Forgive me. 😛 ---

Good deal. One set for rains, one set for dry. Now you are ready for next season. :tup: What will the rain tire of choice be? ---

I’ll never be ready, it is just one more thing to check of a very very long list. I think fo rains I will still use 14x6s. I am not sure exactly what yet. The optimal tire is using Hoosier Dirt stockers. ---

> [@Minglor](#): > > I want the gold ones 🙂 Yeah, they looked too dark in Falken’s advertising pictures so I only got the one set. After seeing them in person I wish I got both sets the same. Oh well, it will make it easy to distinguish the sets and manage tire useage. ---

is the paint bad on the gold ones because they look like they needed more paint around the spokes? ---

> [@jkucz28](#): > > is the paint bad on the gold ones because they look like they needed more paint around the spokes? It’s not bad, it’s a combination of lighting, a somewhat translucent paint, and contrasting textures of metal. The smooth metal shows the color better and the rougher sections allow the base metal to show. Finish is the least of my concern. > [@Zong](#): > > The real question is what car these are going on…? What ever Nissan is ready to hit the track. Hopefully it will be the year of the SE-R in '07. ---
