Anybody know a good website or company I can call. I'm looking to buy some rim. I have four choices, but I need to pick one. 1) Work Meister S1 3PC Wheels, 2) Work VS-XX Wheels, 3) Work Varianza T1S, 4) VOLK GT-M. I been saving my money for the rims. I work mad over time for these. I think I have quite enough now. I want something aggressive. I live on the east coast (philly, PA) we do get snow here. The street is not really good here, but I'm willing to take the chance to buy something aggressive 19X9.5 FR/ 19X11 RR. Have know idea what my offset is yet. Not alot of ppls around here do aggressive stance. I have another car to drive around in so I'm willing to slam the G(2005 g35 coupe IP). I order stance work coilover GR+PLUS. Please really need help here. First timer on buying rims. Some pointer will be greatful. I really like the work meister S1 3PC Wheels in silver alloy. Name:  79577dff.jpg

How much would you sell your 19" OEM rims for?

None

My question pertains to the fitment of the Tenzo Type M's. I have a 2006 6MT sedan and am generally wanting to do something like 19x8.5 in front and either 19x9.5-10 in the back. I know that the tenzos only come in 10 in the rear but I don't know if they'll fit. On websites like tirerack the biggest width I can seem to find that "fits" is 8in but I know it can go much further. The Tenzos are +45 offset in the front and +22 in the rear.

I don't mind rolling my fenders but I'd rather not have to deal with camber if I can help it.
You can fit a 10" wheels in the rear but with that offset you're going to need a pull and to run a decent amount of camber. You're going to have to go for 8.5" +45 all around with spacers in the rear since Tenzo doesn't offer any other sizes/offsets. You should look into some other brand of wheels, you'll find a similar design as the Type M's with the correct sizes.
Go for 8.5" +35 and 10" +45 for a flush yet conservative fitment.

Check the vendor classifieds, there are many good vendors that are selling all of those wheels.
Go for 9.5" +0 and 11 +10 for aggressive offsets but nothing too aggressive where you'd need a pull and excessive camber.

HELP PLEASE!! BUYING Iforged WHEELS!!!!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

K i know this has probably been posted 1000 times, (sorry admins) im buying iforged wheels, i have a 2003 g35 sedan, i wanna run a 20x8.5 +35 in the front and the rear i wanna run a 20x10. but this is the problem im not sure what off set to go with? Last year i ran 20x8.5- +35 offset, all around, they fit flush. So do i go with a +42-45? i have the luxury series TIEN lowering springs 1.4 R 0.7 F. I dont want to pay 1400$ a wheel and find out they wont fit in the rear, considering they drill and make the offset on purchase request. I talked to someone at iforged, they said theres no returns on the wheels inless theres a factory defect. I dont want to roll the fenders a huge amount but im able to roll them if needed. Pictures would help alot, and advise from someone thats done this on the sedan before. I also have the lower camber adjustment bar. Input would be great!! thanks for the replays ahead of time.

That's gonna look kinda dumb unless you go a little lower.

Do you know what size tire you'd like to run?

You're looking at about +40

I'm on H-techs now (until thursday) I suggest you go lower, but S-techs or eibach sports.

You can't complain about roads, I'm from Canada.

You're going to wanna try and contain your sidewalls, I suggest 245/40 and 265/35. If you go with the h-techs you won't rub, but I suggest you roll your fenders anyways.

I got a quick question about the tpms sensor inbetween my wheel and tire. is it necessary to have these replaced if they break? Because discount tire said my 275 30 20 falken wasnt big enough to fit the sensor and told me all four were broken and they're charging me $500 to replace them . Do I really need these sensors?

Did they say the sensors were already broken or did they break the sensors? If they broke them then they are suppose to replace them for free.
