Default Black 15's and a fatty drop... Haven't seen any...

I've only had my box for a few months now, I've been looking around at different size wheels, and I just got a new job, so hopefully I'll be making a little more buck, I've been on this forum for a while now saying I'm getting wheels, but I'm still holding off, waiting to get enough money to not go broke right away, and to make sure I made the right choice.

I figure to save money I should keep my tires and go with 15" wheels, rather than 17's as I was looking at. The only black 15's I've seen (that I've liked) are the NEX-0 GS5 at wheelmax and the 5Zigen FN01R-C (which are more expensive, It's just like buying 17's and tires anyway)





If anyone can find me some black 15's with a polished lip, that would be awesome. I'm looking for something that will hopefully be no more than $600 for wheels/lugsnuts/shipping. I can't find anything! I want to add alot of other accessories and touch up my car with little details, so I need to save some money!

And notice how I also said I want a fatty drop, I'm probably going to get some Goldlines or Tein springs for a drop, can't afford bags or anything, but I hope I will be able to acheive a nice dropped look with just 15's.

THANK YOU!

These are out of your price range, so I doubt it helps much. Here they are.....just in case.

Motegi Racing Tracklite
Motegi Racing Tracklite 2.0

Yeah I checked out the Motegi, there are alot of expensive wheels I like lol. But I yeah, in my price range.

Also, in case this helps (and really, thanks to everyone who is helping me find stuff), I like 5 or 6 spoked wheels, kind of thick spokes, and with a nice silver lip.

I was looking at drag wheels, I really like the DR11, but unfortunately it is 17, therefore I will have to buy tires too...

The only one mentioned that I like is the enkei PKR. I DID see those, but they're not my favorite. I think I need to perhaps see a better picture of them to like them more. I don't like all those spokes, I just like 5 or 6 (like the PKR's). Thanks guys.

speaking of enkei....rz-5



and rota has a bunch

j.spl


flights


er...theres a lot of "affordable" rims depends on what you like i guess. check the sponsored sales sections here. lots of peeps in there have cheaper wheels for sale from rota and konig among other brands....good luck

oh yea and slightly off topic because they're not 15s...drag makes fn copies but they come in only in 17" and 18" but they're pretty cheap too. (about $425 a set of 4 shipped)

Well from what I remember, those Rotas only come in gunmetal, which is a dark wheel, but I want like shiny gloss black. I'm kind of liking those Enkei's also... I just reaaally need to see them on a car. I liked the Drag wheels alot because I've seen those on cars alot and the Rota D2's... But those are expensive... I'd go for a look like that...

Yeah the point is saving money not having to buy tires cause I have to buy springs too. Those Nexos are only $99 per wheel. So it depends. Otherwise Id get DR11's

Damn, I've been looking for a set, and those are definitely it, except the gunmetal. Thanks

Im still stuck on those Nex-o wheels but I heard they are cheap (hence the cheap price tag) so I dont know if it is worth the gamble.

That's awesome, It's either there or Machiii.com - they have some eight-spoke 17s for $400 shipped, but I think I'm gonna go for the auto-xes because it's probably better for daily use.
