Default nicest wheels for being on a budget (inside)

Im on a budget and didnt want to get rims that looked so cheap like most of them in this price range i bought my 19inch stern wheels with a great offset for 1200 with tires and shipping what a hell of a deal plus i really like this wheel. I think anyone on a budget should strongly consider this wheel. shout outs to lee for a hell of a deal.

they are 19 by 9.5 , offsets are +20 front and +25 rear fits perfect. They also come in hyper silver, and chrome rims also have a big lip. you can find them at nate wheels

people on this forum just love their volks and for a good reason they are good wheels for sure so people seem to like to exaggerate a little when you have something that is inferior to their stuff. I could afford something a more than these wheels but i have 3 different cars and a house and im single and 24 years old so you can see im not rolling in the money have to much **** but its a nice rim for a really good deal.

so like people like to say on this forum on a z each 10lbs = to 1hp
so compared to the people that have 19inch volks i lost 1.1 horsepower hopefully that wont make me lose to many races since im giving up 12lbs difference when it comes to all 4 wheels. volks are nice as hell: yes
sterns are a good price with a good looking wheel:yes
oh ok tech didnt know that info you just told me but come on man your wheels are more than my tires, wheels, shipping, and installation big price difference man but i do have that big lip that makes z's look sexy ha.

^^^ i actually like Racing Hart wheels alot better then volks... and if i was worried about weight like atleast half of the volk/work owners do. I would go for the AME Circlar Spec R wheels. my 2 cents

I am figuring $800 for tires which leaves $400 for wheels or $100 each. Also you did not take the photo correct? Whats the deal?

The wheels are $928 from Nates. I am afraid to ask what tires did you get for $272.
