Debate on wheels
Ok everyone, i have two options i am currently having trouble with. I really like that stretch and big wheel width look etc. Here comes the problem, the wheel i have are these specs: 19 inch 8.5 +25 front and 9.5 +22 rear as i mentioned before. It has a nice finish, so the only thing that is bad about them are the rears, they arent as wide as i liked them to be. I know i could run a smaller tires (right now running 275s) but i want more grip.
There are another set of wheels i am looking at, doesnt have such nice finish as the wheel i have now but the specs are pretty good. they are running a lot of stretch.
so im having trouble deciding which way to go:
nice finish/run little smaller tire or bit bigger setup?
comments/inputs

sorry for not posting the other wheels. the fronts are the same so 8.5 with 22 offset and rear would be 10.5 or 11 with 22 offset
compared to my 9.5 +22 offset right now (rear)

You need a 9.5 or wider front wheel for the look you want. Looks for different wheels.

There are no quality turbo kits for 4000. A car will run without a turbo kit.
Quality wheels can cost 2500-3500 + tires. Quality wheels can make a difference how your car drives everyday.

only Volk or Work are quality. now I understand. (rolls eyes)
And so you want to pay $2500 for a set of Work Emotion CR Kais? let me know and I can hook you up at that great pricing. considering I can get a set for $1200 bucks new.
anyway, you can get a used set of the higher end volk/work with tires for 2200-2500 in great condition as well. so there. and in the past I have had offers from vendors for 2-2300 for a brand new set of volks on special/clearance. I doubt it's different for Work S1s.

I got my CR KAI in 18 for 1400 shipped brand new. (I am in Canada)
So you really don't have to pay 4k for a set of good rims.
