Default Please help me in choosing a wheel package.

I've been looking at wheels for the past 3 days I have a couple of questions and need some advice.


I have the base model with no stability control so I dont need to worry about upsetting any system correct?

Could you guys point me to a link or exact details as to what would be a good set up with my preferences.


I want a light wheel and want to keep it as light as the stock wheels.
I would like either 18s or 19s.
I want an aggresive look.
I would like to spend less than 2k for the whole package.
I like 5 spoke wheels with big lips could you please show me some suggestions. I really like the axis shine but thats out of my range.



I would like to keep the car stock height if possible and don't want to do any fender rolling and don't want any rubbing.


My Z is my daily car so I would also like to take that into consideration.

I would also like to my tire pressure sensor. What is the easiest way of doing this since I was thinking about getting the wheels online and mounting them myself.

Only thing I can think of is buying wheels and tires separately and taking them to a shop so they can install the sensors and wheels.


Thank you guys. Sorry for asking for so much.

By the whole package, you mean wheels and tires right?

Maintain an overall tire height close to the OEM tire height and you will be fine.

I'm not sure if you've found wheels already but I have many options available that will fall under $2k shipped for wheel/tires.

Rota P45R wheels fit what you are looking for
-lighter and wider than stock 18's
-aggressive look with concaved spokes
-Wheel/Tire packages available for under 2K
-5 spoke wheel with a decent lip

We can mount TPMS sensors on the wheels when doing all mounting/balancing

PM me if you have any questions!
