Default The Non-Volk/Work/Advan/BBS/"insert expensive brand here" picture thread

Everyone knows Volk, Work, Advan and "insert expensive wheel brand" are great wheels. But not everyone has $3k laying around for wheels like that. So post pictures of other wheel makes.

depreciation? you would think that people would get nice wheels since Zs are getting a lot cheaper and have left over money but nope.

as long as it looks good, don't matter what brand. RAYS for life

I don't understand why someone think the Z is worth so much when it really isn't. And that if it's not anything other then 3grand wheels it's cheap and generic. Oh well.

I'll try to get this started with my cheap generic wheels...

^^Your cheap generic wheels look great. And I bet they roll pretty well also.

the most important thing you need to do is research wheels for the Z B4 you buy them
I failed to do that with my first set, I had Ruff wheels before, they looked OK but were heavy as hell and the offset could have been better, Now Im running Work S1's and the quality is a night and day difference,you get what you pay for when it comes down to it.

Looks pretty good. But yeah, I've seen Z's go for around 12k now. In my eyes, I just feel like a Z doesn't deserve generic or knock off rims. Maybe I'm just one of those brand name kind of guys...

well alot of it has brand name written on it. i got my volks cuz they were a hell of a deal. if it wasnt for that id be rolling on enkie rpf's. not crazy expensive but also not a generic piece of unknown quality. if you search hard enough, you will find something that suits both cost and quality
