I had a set of 19's sportmax 962 that I bought off of craigslist for 600, they never made it on my car and I sold them a month later for 600. They are cheap wheels but do your research and pick up a well known brand quality will always pay off in the end.

That's the thing. I can't find any in my price range. I'm not banking so it wouldn't be smart financially to throw a lot of $$$ on rims you know?

I only got ride of my sportmaxx because I picked up AME circlar spec R's super cheap. I would say $1500 for a decent set of wheels.

O okay gotcha. Well I'm still trying to look for good deals and I'm just getting unlucky is all. Gotta be patient when shopping for rims. I was patient when buying my G. Bought it for 9k. Fully loaded

Good deals will come I waited almost a year before I found my wheels. Just do your research on wheels that fit the G coupe good. You want lower offsets than stock and without spacers. Honestly if you save a little more your will be happier in the end. I don't like Volks & works since everybody has them, that's why I waited for mine.

I'm stil new to the rims world. Explain offsets to me. The higher offset te more the rims concave out right. And lower offsets concave inwards? I don't like concave out at all. I'm more into just flat or a little concave out(to the point where you can't really tell). What offsets can u recommend

If you're wanting cheap, but still good, check out XXR rims. There is a set on the shop G right now. 20X8.5 F w/ 245/35 20X10.5 R w/ 295/30
I think we paid around $750 shipped for the rims.
