Default Your opinion on best looking wheels for $1,500?

I'm looking at a black Z and the rims it has are horrid so id wanna get new ones ASAP, what are your guys opinions on some of the best looking wheels for a black Z? 2008 base model. Oh and i might add i'm not looking to spend much more than $1500

Yeah replicas of the S1s, they do look pretty good!
There are many pics of 350Zs with the meisters on and there's one with the ES6s as well, check bmurray350z's car

Does your budget of $1,500 include tires?

You're not going to have much of an option otherwise

I'm laughing at all these suggestions that are definitely not in the $1500 range. RPF1 would be a solid choice. Great, functional all business wheel for the money. Not a weak replica either.

I agree 100% with this guy.

great performance, looks, price and not some heavy assed replica..... And when you end up curbing one you wont have the sudden desire to rip your hair out and run over your own face.

No just a budget of $1500 for the wheels.

Oops, didn't read about your budget. Used Enkeis then.

Start with what style you like unless you are performance focused.
For best balance/looks,I like 19's.Then,you'll need tires.Add another grand.You also have to ask yourself,do I want to be driving a Z with
the same wheels that everyone has?The comments given show a bias towards the same stuff.If it were me,I'd choose something different.

Seems like most people these days just look through the Volk and Work catalogue for a wheel they really like then buy the appropriate knock off.
