Have been looking at wheels, but all of the good looking cheap ones are in 5x120 or not wide enough. After a quick look, found:

Widening standard wheels doesn't look safe.

Looking at eventually upgrading to Brembo front callipers, are there any 18s that will clear them? If so, some of the Lenso Eurostyle (ESC,9,8) would look awesome: http://www.lensowheel.com/Lenso-Sub-Brand-list/?SubCatID=10006

If these came in a 19x9.5 rear Id love a set

These may be a bit expensive.

Any recommendations of some good multispokes?

don't stress too much about that torque number, it is not a representation of engine torque, ask for the derived torque number which will be lower but closer to a correct engine torque

Just checked the dyno sheet again, 790 is the derived torque. Scary.

Been in the 400 club for a few years now. Baby GTX, 5” cat, PW 4” intake, built ZF, carbon driveshaft so I don’t end up with a hole in the floor. Brakes, coilovers, wheels. Getting towards 170k km, still solid.
