Varstoen Wheels

Hey guys I'm looking to buy new rims for my 04 sedan. Are varstoen wheels good? I'm a college student so I can't buy BBS/Volk/Vossens. I use my car as a daily driver. Also, would you recommend 19 inch wheels?

Yes 19s No varrstoens And it's good you're asking before buying. Think about this

You're gonna spend about 15-1700 for new varrs shipped and then new tires mounted and balanced on them.
There are used volks going for that much with tires all around.
No joke-sometimes in like new condition for no more than 2k

It seems like you already know which is better quality wise so why not look around for a used set? I know Every set I ever bought has been used to lightly used.

But if for some reason you definitely want them new and new only, Enkei is always a solid choice and a much better candidate for our cars.

Plus imo they look 100x better and well, they aren't replicas lol

Also, Rays Gramlights are a good choice I'm almost positive a 5x114.3 set on Nasioc is going cheap. 19" too

Here's one on eBay if you're local to this seller
Keep looking around man
Tons of great deals

Look at this on eBay:

Hmm.. I was actually looking into enkei's but it seems like every single person on this planet got enkei's... Rpf or something ? I know I'm going to have to spend a good amount of money. Do you recommend I first buy coilovers or rims?

Enkei has a lot more than rpf1 man-that's just their most popular wheel
You should definitely be able to find a set you like and for cheap

For an easy fix,
Wheels and a set of eibach pro kit lowering springs
It'll keep you happy and give you the look you want

That's a great deal but I can't do black rims. My car is silver. I'll check out Ebay for sure though.

Yo thanks for the eibach tip.. I never knew about them and their fairly inexpensive. Since they're springs, how much is the drop?

I forget honestly
For the coupes it's pretty damn good believe it or not
For sedans you'll have to double check and find some pics on Google

+1000 on the Enkei's!!!

For some reason I don't see many people around SoCal with rpf1's unless they're 16" 17" inch wheels. Here's a look at my setup do you recognize the wheels just don't copy the look I don't want to see any gz looking like mines lol
