I looking into getting some 19' rims. I really like the 5 spoke deep dish with rivets style. Top of my list at the moment are the Streetstar/Maya DTS because they're forged. I've also been looking at the AXIS Milano's. Which seem to be a copy of that rim but they're cast not forged. Also the SSR Agle Premium (Are these forged?).

So, here are my questions;
Can I get the DTS for about 3K or are they more like 4K with tires?
Can anyone recommend forged rim in that style that's more affordable than the DTS?
Thanks!
Here some links if you have seen the wheels I'm talking about.

at retail, mayas run between 700 - 800 a piece (or at least the STM's do)
I might be able to get a hookup, but no promises, my contact over there's been pretty busy

 

Check with www.importhookup.com

Ask for Vick and I bet they can get a you good price to them with tires.

They current have this:
Free Shipping, Free mount and balance
DTM and STM package deal on 18x7.5 with 225/40/18 kumho=$2560
DTM and STM package deal on 19x7.5 with 235/35/19 Kumho =$3280
(note that different widths are available)

Then DTS might not be far off that price.

Thanks GreddyTT I will contact them.

RaySur350GT, Thanks I'll contact your guy too. BTW I was sitting behind you in the Claim Jumper parking lot waiting to leave on the cruise. Your fat tires and sic rims are partially responsible for giving me the wheel upgrade bug. Thanks!

I was thinking of running Dunlop 9000, good performance, quite ride for my daily driver. Or, so I'm told. Can you guy recommend a tire - I'm thinking 8.5 fronts and 10 or 11 in the back.

Haha,

I'm glad to be of assistance to the craziness you will be heading into. Trying to make sure you get the rims and the wait for them will practically kill you! Once they arrive, you don't know how you will feel! Let's say giddie like a school girl comes to mind....

If u like those... then u should take a look at these...

Wow, those look sweet on that Z. Unfortunately I think they only run as big as 18 and I was really looking for 19's. Are your rims 19 or 20's? I also like the detail of rivets which the RH's don't have. BTW, do you know if the Racing Harts are forged? I thought they were all cast? That would be really light for cast.
Thanks Ricky.

I'm running 18" 245/40 and 275/40 Dunlop SP9000s on my Nismos (8.5" and 9.5"). A great tire, you wont be dissapointed. I wouldn't go over 10" in back.
