You can pick up a set of less expensive used wheels and tires for that price range. I've even seen 19" volks with tires go for $2300 shipped, of course they had some curb rash.

I got my 20" wheels and tires shipped for $1400. The tires were a little worn and the wheels are pretty cheap (Sterns) but I liked the look and the wheels had a reputation for being decently strong.

Stay away from TSW wheels! There have been a lot of complaints about them!

You might want to check into Sevas too, they are not super pricey and they are pretty good quality

I'm looking for a place to shop for rims too! Since I started coming to this site, I caught the modification disease!

Is there a place to shop in the San Francisco Bay Area so I can see it in person? I'm not quite good yet @ judging online what'll look good on my Baby G. I need to see it in person.

Is a $3000 budget for rims enough? I don't know. Help!

^ 3000K for rims/tires is a good price to work I'm sure the guys in the CA regional forums can help you out with a shop where you can see the rims in person.

Thanks everyone for your help!! Too bad at work ebay is blocked so Perry I will check them out later. I know that I like a 3" lip in the back and 2 in the front. I just ordered a Gialla grille so that is my first mod. Next she will be lowered. My tires are brand new Nittos so I may wait a bit for the rims....maybe not. I will probably get to impatient

trust me, save up and do it right the first time. you can get great wheels for around 2500-3000 with tires. after you got the price, pick a color theme - silver, gold, gunmetal, black, etc. then pick a style of spokes and find your brand options!
