Hi guys, new to the forums. I noticed most everyone here spend a lot to mod their cars. I am all for it, however, my "heavy modding" days are over when I drove my last Honda/Acura type of car. I am into the "stock" look, but the OEM 19" sport pkg. rims cost under $2000 w/tires on the "market". (IF I can find them)

However, I figure if I'm going to spend so much on STOCK wheels/tires, I might as well spend a bit more to purchase some sexy rims. Here are my preferences:

1-MUST be 19 inches. anything less and it doesn't look nice (to me that is)

2-Doesn't compromise or weigh down the car and its performance. (aka, cheap HEAVY A** CHROMED 50lbs rims on ebay)

3-Would PREFER to have a nice sexy lip on the rear rims. I do not have to fit a cell phone on the lip to prove how fat the lip is, but I like to have wider wheels in the rear over the front.

4- I like the polished look, otherwise, a clean silver rim is fine (no gun metal, gold, etc)

5- I do not mind "non-brand" name wheel, as long as they do not fall apart! I do not NEED Volks, HRE's, etc. But they would be nice


Anyone with suggestions or opinions, let me know. And if my "budget" is impossible, then I will probably stick to the stocks OR muscle up some more $. I can afford $4k rims/tires, but the whole stolen vehicle idea stops me.

By the way, my Acura Integra Gsr just got stolen 2 days ago so right now, I am still deciding between a 350Z and a G35. So I do not HAVE this car yet. OK, post on!

 

You can get most AXIS wheels (i.e. Supermesh, Milano, Hiro) for $2,000 with tires.

Pick up an issue of Sport Compact Car magazine, and you will see plenty of advertisements from wheel/tire shops.

 

Going from stock 18" - assuming everything else stays the same, you will have to move up to forged 19" in order to avoid decreasing performance. Eve nif you get a set of 19" that weights identical to the stock 18", you will take a performance hit as the weight of the tire/rim is now pushed out further.

Forged 19" for around $2000 with tires would be hard to find - unless you opt for either the OEM Rays Engineering 19" or get dirt cheap tires with aftermarket forged rims. (don't recommend that at all)

 

hmm...i would look into...

ADR - Cypher, M-Sport, Sterling,
Axis - Mod 7, GTR, Phin, VIP, Hiro, Milano, Supermesh, Finish
Buddy Club - P1 Racing II Plus
Carre - SP3
Enkei - RPF1 or RP03
HP Design - Evo, HPR5
JAZ - Ver-One, Trinity, Reverb, Neo-Gen, Hoshi
Kaotik - Z-5
Konig - Trouble, Next
Moda - R8 or R10
Privat - Profil, Zwanzig
Racing Hart Evolution - F10'S or GT5's
Racing Sparco - NS6, D-Spec Stage 2
ROH - Drift R
Ruff Racing - 236, 277, 278, 279
RVM - Magnum
Stern - ST-1, ST-2, ST-4, ST-7
Tenzo R - GT5
TSW - Catalunya, Kyalami, Thruxton, Mondello, Montage, Volcano, Bremma
Zenetti - Five

that's all i can think of right now lol...most of these can be staggered also...and I can't stand by the quality of some of these wheels considering I haven't owned any of them, except the fact that they all seem pretty decent and most can be had for under $2500 or even under $2000 with tires. Good Luck.

 

I can sell you my rims for $2000 with Falken tires. I only had it on my car for 1 month. I just bought the 6MT Coupe 05.

 

got any pics of the rims on the car????
