04 Silver Coupe - Looking for the ideal set (not on the walmart budget)
04 Silver Coupe - Looking for the ideal set (not on the walmart budget)
So I'm looking for wheels, and there's a lot out there to consider besides looks... however, sometimes the information is hard to find. So I'm looking for advice.
I'm looking for something that is:
- Similar in color to the stock 7 spokes 18's (Machine silver, matte silver, or otherwise looks good with the standard dark silver (DG?) coupe).
- Lightweight, I don't want some 35 pounders. I want them to be no more than equal in weight to the stock 18's, preferably closer to the weight of the 19" rays
- 19" or 20"
- staggered obviously, and step lip or concave
A couple that have caught my eye for reference:
Vossen CV2
Tenzo Type M
RAYS Volk Racing GT30 (Can I even find these any more? These are one of my favorites)
RAYS Volk Racing RE30
WORK Gnosis GS4
WORK VS-XX
WORK Varianza T1S
Can you guys point me toward my dream wheels? Just a heads up, I'm not a fan of the 5-spoke look, so not interested in anything like that. Money is an object, and I'd like to spend as little as possible. But I know better than to just skimp on quality. Still, I'd definitely like to keep this under $4000 (If I'm really lucky, under $3k!) Im also a Nor'easter, so these will probably see a bit of weather, if that's in any way relevant.
I appreciate the help guys.

So true. When you see them, you'll know lol.
With that being said, everyone and their grandmas have run T1S's on G/Z's, so you know they look good. TE37's are a pretty classic choice too. I've always been partial to BBS LM's as well. Wedssport's are nice lightweight wheels. Mmmm, so many choices.
