Looking to buy:
19" wheels.

Ideally, mildly/semi aggressive at most. Even more ideally with tires included. (No harm in asking lol )

Must be: Work, Volk, SSR etc. you get the drift. No vossen, Avant garde, or any type of reps, fakes, knockoffs, "bro I swear they're just as good as the real thing brobro". No exceptions here.

Based on the fact the G may be a DD I'm gonna ask to keep the price limit around $2000.

I'm in no rush and I'm willing to wait for something that I feel will be a good deal.
Also any body looking to go back to stock and would want OEM Rays with cash on top that can also be done as well if need be.

Sooo with that said... Let me know.
Thanks guys

I wasn't a fan either, but I got used to them and I like them now:

The 19s are back on my car while these are being refinished and they seem tiny. LOL. For a DD 19s with some 245/35 F and 275/35 R ride very comfortably, even with a minor drop (eg, 1").

Look on Craig's List in your area for good deals and also eBay. Good deals are to be had for your price range. Also look for wheels that might need a refinish that you can get for a good deal. I found the wheels above on eBay w/tires for so cheap. They were listed local pickup only (and weren't selling for that reason), but I had a buddy from my other forum pick them up and ship them to me. As long as the wheels are true with no major damage, a refinish makes them like new. Good luck and have fun.

I would offer my Work VS-XX's, but you're all the way up in NJ. The wheels are in decent condition, the clear coat is all faded and stained on the lips; I can get you some pics of the "damage" if you you're interested. It will polish out if you strip the clear and then polish. I've already started on the rears. Idk the sizes, they were on the car when I bought it, but I can take them off and look. Im running 255/35/19 in front and 285/35/19 on rear. They sit pretty flush, go look at my other posts if you want.

"Wheel Deals" my best advice

Best place to find wheel deals is on our Marketplace under private classified! They generally sell for half of retail and often come with tires. Even with rash/scratches you can have a wheel repair shop make them look like new or better. Make sure you know what you're buying, no excessive offsets or widths...Gary

You can also check WheelFip.com WheelFlip is the place here in SoCal I've had several sets of wheels refinished to as Gary mentioned "better" than new. They also have a classified section and some of the sellers may be in your area. Also check other G and Z forums, but as Gary mentioned, our Marketplace is one of the strongest. You could also check other forums that have our bolt pattern. This site lists all the cars/years with our same bolt pattern. Lots of cars that are heavily modded on the list that I'm sure would run sizes/offsets similar to what you are looking for.

What would you say to a set of Volk Racing SF "Winning" series wheels? 9.5" front / 10.5 rear - I'd have to check the offsets later if your interested.

These are top shelf wheels - and - due to a little wear and tear (I still DD them though, there's nothing mechanically wrong with them) you'd get them for a bit less than you might otherwise.

I'm hot to trot for what Henry's got on his ride (those 5-spoke numbers) and looking for a way to get out of these expensive suckers into those expensive suckers LOL
