Recommend some wheels

[On2]

I have been lookin around for a new set of wheels and have narrowed down a list but I just thought I would ask you all in case you know of a nice wheel that I do not know and may have overlooked. Criteria below. Thanks.

Price
Less than $3600 set
Less than $900 per wheel

Size
18 X 9.5~10 front
18 X 11~12 rear
0~25 offset front
0~25 offset rear
5x114.3 bolt pattern

Style
No knockoffs
No lip, no dish
Medium to light in weight, no heavy wheels
Concave face preferred
Would consider matte black or polished look
No crazy colors (green, pink, yellow, etc.)

Availability
Special order is fine. I can wait.

Here are some wheels I like just to give an idea.
Volk Racing TE37
GP Sports Gullflame
SSR Type-C

TE's are always a win though.. (same car)

TE37's are a timeless wheel. Can't go wrong there, IMO.

Strong, lightweight, and a high quality build. Can't say enough good about it. That and there are so many varieties of finishes.

[SHIFT_2DRIFT]

oh ok sorry.
Ya what they said ^

[v-empire]

the advan rs' are my most favorite wheels.

[KRINEDOG]

go with Dave I had a set of Advan RS for my Subaru Forester way back when they are mad sexy.

Dang you're right. I was thinking I could always get them widened but that is a little too much widening for me to feel safe.

[FlatWoodsMonster]

ya i was going to get them 10" wide until i found that out

[On2]

As expensive as some of these wheels are, you'd think they would allow you to custom order sizing options.

Like when I ordered my Super ADVAN Ver.2 they allowed me to pick any offset I wanted and some pretty good widths.

Work are bitches like that. lol no special sizes for you.

[J Squared]

Does not fit the criteria.

Buy them used and refinish them. Used TE's go for under 3k all day.

Thanks for the suggestion. Those are the perfect size and offset for me however the ugliest color.

what? takata green looks good on anything.

[On2]

Yeah, if you're the Hulk or a Ninja Turtle.

Wow, look what I found on the 2nd page of the Wheel/Tires for sale forum over there.

Too bad the front is 17" though.

[Cameron.]

no, if your fucking awesome.

yea those have been for sale for a while, no one has the cabbage though.

[On2]

I'm leaning towards SSR Type-C RS.

18x9.5 +22
18x10.5 +15

Now I have to decide between Gold and Gunmetal.

[Cameron.]

meh too plain....

[AFSil80]

meh too plain....

In other words, PERFECT. :taunt:

[Cameron.]

nah he said he wants concavity, that is not the wheel for that, they get there offset by the hub mounting point.

[AFSil80]

They have a little bit of concave feature to it.

Not like the TE37 does, however.

[On2]

I'm very happy with my current wheels (FN01R-C matte black 17X10 +12 all-around) even though they are the most common wheel and are cheap, but it's too bad that they don't make the 18" version as concave as their 17" (X 10.0 +12) version, which is the only thing stopping me from getting their 18" version.

[On2]

Concavity

get what you like not everyone else.

didnt read thread at all just posted. i make these threads ALOT but have stopped. just just do your thing. if NO one in the world likes it besides you so be it. as long has your happy. and save your money towards the parts you actually want, dont waste money on parts just to get buy. you could have used that money to get the better parts faster.... srry rant over but yea get what you like.

[Cameron.]

but michael the difference between you and him is hes actually going to buy one of these mentioned wheels.

Yeah, if you read the thread you would know that I am not picking based on others opinions.

I'm not going to get green TE37's just because everyone around seems to like those. I think they are hideous. I'm not going to get pink, neon green, orange or other "trendy" colors just because everyone else likes it.

I was merely asking for suggestions on wheels that I can pick from, not have someone else pick.

I understand what you are saying but it is however an unnecessary posting.

[Cameron.]

hes just mad because everyone flamed him for having these threads. but he would make mulitples that what he doesnt understand.

[On2]

all i know is the new te's suck major dick. I agree.

Sadly, this car USED to have graphite TE37 mags.

[zebrafantastic]
