| if you want good brand names, go to the internet. If you just want rims, I would personally go to Fountain Tire again. They got me a nice set of rims for the Merkur for a really good price. But like I said, if you want to be a wheel whore, go to the internet or car forums | |

| Those basically just look like the GTR rims that are already on his car just different color and bit bigger? Just paint your existing rims bronze or gunmetal Grey, cheap and easy. | |

I like that idea, but I am guessing you are not made of money. If you are going to go that route look for used ones in good shape. | |

| buy spacers, and the world will thank you. Perfect offset wheels looks much better than expensive rims all tucked away in the fenderwells. To quote Taylorvw in reference to my car,"What rims are those, those rims look much better" "Those" rims were the factory 14 inch BBS rims, with 20mm spacers, giving them a 0 offset. While my gold BBs still have a 15mm offset with the spacers. Running alot of camber looks sweet, but it eats tires, and I am more than willing to bet, a set of tires will not last you a long time if you run serious camber. and lets not say you don't care about tires, becasue when a decent set costs, lets say $800 mounted/balanced, and you have to buy a new set every summer, it sucks. And excessive camber reduces you ability to corner if your car cannot put the tire's full contact patch onto the road.
I'd say buy them used off a speciality car forum. That way you get big brand name, used prices, plus, you will more than likely be able to see what they look like and how they fit on your type of car. nothing is worse than getting fancy rims, and having them rub every corner or bump in the road. | |

| Hah, I suggest run lots of toe out in the front, your turn in will be awesome paired with that sick offset. Then put someone who knows nothing behind the wheel and it's a winning combination... | |

| If they were gold, they would fit the car much better. But the extra sidewall-give, would be much appreciated in adding some much-needed comfort | |
