Need opinion on price...

So im about to buy some new wheels/rotors/pads for my Gcoupe once I come off of deployment and need some advice. Is a $2600 wheel package "which will probly come out to $3000 after taxes" alot for 20" Avarus AV3's? I really like those wheels and feel like they would suit my graphite/black theme well. Also how much would you pay for OEM replacement rotors + pads? I was thinking about just doing cross-drilled w/o slotted. Heard slotted tears brakes up quickly and gets dust everywhere....Lemme know what you think.

Those Avarus wheels look like they're one piece cheapo wheels. so i definitely wouldnt spend $2600 on em, even with tires.

yeh i believe they are, if thats what "staggard" means. Im pretty clueless when it comes to wheels. I just dont want some wheels that everyone else has, and dont really wanna spend more that $3k on a package. Most 3piece rims go for like $700+ a rim. At least the ones ive seen. Do you have any suggestions for a glossyblack wheel with a big polished lip? Axis MOD doesnt look too bad but im sure alot of people have em. I wanna keep it at a 20" wheel too

staggered means you have two different width's front and rear... ex: 20x8.5 front and 20x10 rear. There's not really much you're going to find that many people dont already have without spending over $3500

From the looks of the Avarus AV3's, take a look at the Stern ST-1's, They're somewhat similar but in my opinion, way better looking.

I've seen them in black, silver, hypersilver and all with a polish lip. They're one-piece cast wheels but up to par with axis, sevas, etc. and decently priced. All these wheels should be about $2600 with tires, mail ordered including shipping with no tax.
