Default Spend My Money

Hey Guys,

I'm in a huge dilemma over wheels and tires...

I am willing to spend $1,500 when all is said and done.

Pick out the rims and tires that you guys like the best, and post them here please!

Thanks Again,

JOHN

A nice set of wheels usually cost more than $1500 or just around there alone without tires.

I would look into Enkei RPF1's (18x9.5 and 18x10.5) check the vendors on this site.

$1500 for wheels and tires , you need to buy something used to get something worth a dam.

Its not worth cheaping out on tires either, just wait until you can afford wheels you really want/like with some good tires.

Considering rpf1s are within the pricepoint you've established...

I wouldn't waste my money on the Chinese garbage suggested
Sofar.

The gts' are priced incredibly well too.

Man you don't have any color schemes or designs that you like in mind. Kind of weird to just go out and get what everyone else is saying.
I am in the market for wheels right now and I'm looking to spend about the same amount.
My #1 pick right now is the varstoenn 3.1's.....the 10 spoke 19" black ones...
You may be able to pick up a used set of forgestars for in your price range too which I love.
A friend of mine has the enkeis talked about above...they are very nice as well.
I think you will find that you are going to be recommended the same handful of wheels for in this price range but there are millions around....
Have you done any searching for yourself..? might find something you like haha

I have a carbon silver z. I have an idea of the ones I want. Why would I post those... Just so I can get more opinions? I am trying to get options... Not have people talk to me about what I would like.

And my nismo... Why don't you spend all that extra time you have posting useless comments doing something else... *******

get a quote from 'get your wheels' on the avant garde m310s
price isnt bad at all. not sure on the quality of the wheels and what not but its in your price range. might put you just over 1500 with custom color and with tires - depending on brand tires you get - but you could still fall under budget if you go with just the wheel standard colors and budget tires.
