The wheels are not released yet and are coming in at the end of July. I got them from Ravspec and they require a 500 deposit but they are more than your 1350 budget though.

yeah nacho, they're the actual nismo wheels...

great sizes too, 19x9.5 and 19x10.5.

front offset kinda weak for the G though, like +40 iirc; rears sit fine at +22.

Haha,prolly not worth stealing since they are not nearly as prestigious as volks. Nothing lucky, just more stupid spending on the car... Too bad concave wheels are not popular otherwise you'd have better luck in the marketplace. Good luck finding your rims!

Don't get me wrong, I like lipped wheels. But here in nothern Nevada, I can clean my car, and 10 minutes later the wind blows dirt all over em. Got tired of constantly cleaning em.

BTW, my current concave wheels collects a ton of dirt on the inside, but i guess even if it is dirty it's not as big of an eye sore as lipped wheels.

But at least it's somewhat hidden, you know. I actually still think I can get the Tenzos without this credit card. And the machined face looks sexy

Just found a new wheel that's super concave, and only $850 a set. Miro Type 111, 19x8.5/9.5, ET20 all around. Here's a link to the Craigslist ad with em, concave as fvck

Looks good and the price is just right with tires, I believe B2autodesigns also carries Miro wheels. Shoot Charles a PM and see how his prices compare and if he price matches. I bought tons of stuff including my Axis wheels from him and it was always a pleasant experience. By the way, looks like there is a better offset for the 8.5. They are slightly on the heavy side but I don't think you care too much about that.

Yeah those Miro 111s are pretty sweet looking, I love the webbing effect they have that mimmicks what BBS and other high end makers do for weight savings. Miro's seems a little more aggressive though. A tad heavier than my wider forgestars, but more unique look at a more bargain price. Only thing that would concern me would be wheel strength, but otherwise I'd say go for it.
