If you want CSL reps go with Velocity Motoring, Morr or Forgestar.

If you love concavity, take a look at our VMR VB3's in a 19x10 +38 offset. Direct bolt-on fitment, no modifications or aftermarket hardware required for stock suspension.

All the CSL found on eBay are cheap gravity cast wheels so be VERY CAREFUL. Saving a few hundred dollars can turn into a nightmare.

As some suggested check our CSL (CS7) wheels in you are looking for the best quality CSL and attention to details. It is not all about concavity. It is about performance and proper fitment. Running a 10" in the rear matched with a 8.5" will increase your staggered setup and throw off your suspension dynamics. I`ll recommend against doing that. Unless you can match it with a 9.0" front, go with a 9.5" rear instead.

Well from the choices, I think the time attack ring on the silver doesn't look very good on the silver wheel. CSL design is classic and best choice.

Velocity CSL

Miro CSL ....in some nice summer weather

Both the Miro and Velocity wheels are Low Pressure cast, JWL and VIA approved strong wheels. But if you want to take it to the next level at not a lot of cost - lighter and stronger - Flow Form. They are same technology used on F1 cars they are best value out there.

Comes in Matte Black, Titanium, Gunmetal, Piano Black

You can't go wrong with VMRs - it's been #1 for quite some time.
