i just think that the ce28n is the perfect wheel for the car. I mean it's one of the lightest wheels you can get... it's forged (so you know it's strong) and they are one of few wheels that come in perfect s2000 offsets. Also you know they are a good choice when alot of the top tuners are running them on their cars!!

besides who cares if everyone has them... all you have to do is makes sure you are happy (it's your money)

just my .2

I also have a spa and can't decide between te and the ce. although i'am leaning more towards the ce in bronze and size 17" have not seen this combination much. and i like how bronze looks on yellow. the good thing is if you get a set and dont like them... you can always sell them on these forums!

yeah its a tough choice, bronze looks good on some spa's. I pretty much want to 100% like what i buy because i dont feel like going through the hassel of selling rims.

too many on the site have ce's.

no one with an s2000 in my area has ce's on their s2000, and the only time i ever saw ce's in person on the s2000 is when we all went to HIN or has a mod day.

The decision is still 95% for the ce's, but who knows. I wish the sf winnings came in 17's w/ s2000 offsets

Maybe on the "site" everyone seems to have them, but I would have to agree with Guedo in that I have NOT seen an S with them on in my area.......I know there are but I think that those with them post up so it seems like they are more common then they actually are.

There are a lot more S's without CE's then WITH them...

I agree with the fact it's a perfect upgrade for the car with near perfect offsets and you can't complain with the weight reduction that the 17's give you per wheel.
7-9lbs per wheel. The application is proven and is headache free even with 2" drops.....

It's ironic that the consenses seems to think the CE's are more common because I personally think the TE's are more common in that you see them on more than just S2000's. I actually was looking at both also and have seen A LOT of TE'S on A LOT of different cars. I don't recall seeing many pictures of other cars with CE's. I know there out there but just don't recall seeing them.

Their both beautiful wheels.....and with Volks you can't go wrong.......even if the S next to you has the same wheels.

It means "hotness".... Don't know if you have any CF on your car but the rims will compliment those too.

I'm thinking Black w/polished lip with spa yellow brakes.
