----------- ORIGINAL POST -------------



So i'm in the market for wheels, but locally the selection is not amazing... So it looks like online is the way to go. The only nice sites I could find are http://www.wheelmax.com and http://www.wheelsnext.com . Am I missing any good ones?

Heres the car:





The wheel i'm looking for is 18x7.5 (maybe 8 if its not too expensive) and i'm trying to keep the grandtotal around 1k (with tires).

On tires, does anyone have the nankang ns-2's. I don't really go to the track so "high performance" is not really necessary. Also I am fine with the stock "____ tenzas" so I guess I wouldn't benefit from expensive tires...

I want a wheel that has that "mesh" look in gunmetal with a polished lip.

These were the best I could find on wheelmax



first choice i guess but do you guys think the design is to busy?



I like these but they don't have the cool "rivets" on the lip...


what are yall's opinons on the exel/nex-o wheels on wheelmax? They seem alot cheaper than other wheels... Is it a good idea to get them?

ANd I know the exel radius is kinda a hp racing lightning knockoff but they are so expensive! but so hot :D



Also any pics of FM's with the gunmetal/polished look would be great for inspiration!

Thanks guys.

 

Here's y'alls answer...

Edgeracing.com -> then peep the Flik Wasp in Anthracite. Depending on which 'bundle' you order, you should be under $1K easy.

 

awesome site!!! checking it out now.. :D

 

G-games??? lol

 

thought about those but they seem expensive at all the sites.. like 200+ a wheel. Plus I can't get away from that clean mesh look

 

quick chop with the flicks on a similar car.... i like! what yall think?

 

thats PSed?? my untrained eyes can hardly tell.

 

hehe here they are on my car with a chopped drop,antenna, and reflectors.... i tinted the tails too because i actually took the tint off a few months ago (was gettin bubbles)



right now i'm chopping a massive amount og wheels onto my car and i'll post a huge image and you guys can pick yer favorites!

 

Hawt bro! Definitely Hawt! The reason how I know about these rims is that I almost bought them for the winter time. (Don't want to ruin the 5Zigens! ) I found these, and the price cannot be beat for an extra pair of rims! Offset is nice also. Will look flush with your tC, not tucked into the wheel wells like stocks. I say "DO IT!"

BTW-Nice 'Chop!

 

Of those first two wheels you posted, I definitely prefer the second one. Much cleaner looking than the first wheel, and imo fake rivets suk, they should only be on actual 2 or 3 piece wheels where they're functional. FWIW.

 

ok guys, did some work.... whats your favorite and why? Link me some more wheels you guys like!

 

Axis! I am a huge fan of the quality and rep Axis has come to have in the import scene and they are very good about warnty (sp)

 

yeah i looooove the axis pentas... prolly my favorite but so expensive

 

Look around on-line take your time. If you buy a set of rims on impulse you will just end up buying another set untill you find the one.
