Default Need some ideas for awesome black rims

Specs on car below.

Looking to do a black/blue scheme and ive always liked the way black rims look in show. I do street race btw so I dont want anything overbearing. But i dont know anything about wheel specs offsets or anything... so pics and explainations or w/e you can provide would be awesome

Thumbs up

Look in the pics link of my sig, I have Limited Edition Volk LE37's in gloss black. 19X9.5" front, 19X10.5" back with a +22 offset all the way around. Even though they are wide as hell and 1" larger diameter, they still weigh in at 20.8 and 21.X lbs. I run 255/285/35 tires on them. I love them, completely changed the look of the car.

Im not worried about budgest right now, if its something i want ill pick up shifts and work for it, money isnt an issue, its the STRIKE factor i care about, and nothing is striking my interest. I like 6 spoke rims ill put it that way and i have the track model rims and i love the way they look, but i just wanna goto black period or i would keep stock....

I didnt say anything about having to be under 2k. Im just saying I found these rim and tires (nitto 555) package for under 1800 asking if it was a good price and look. They come in 17-20" and im stock 18s right now so im gonna stick with 18.

I really dont like the look of most volk rims for some reason. I may be typical and just stick with the gloss black nismo rims... Its just really hard for me to pick out a rim I like cause im a picky mother f..... REALLY picky

ive seen Z's with that style of rim, it just doesnt look right. those belong on bmw's and other 4 door coupe style cars.
