no gold , bronze.

* edit : or light bronze ( bronze-gold , see the car in the top banner)

here's some gold LMs in 17x9.5 on gunmetal. can't remember what my offset is atm.

[Daryl @ RightDrive]

TE37, CE28, Nismo LM-GT4, Work Meister, SSR Professor, Work XC9 are all nice choices. I have 17x9 +22 on my car and they fit nicely without any modifications. Bronze or dark grey look good on KH2.

I had bronze on my black prelude (sold it) and i liked it but i was thinking of something that stands out a lil more.



I also like the concaved style wheels...

LM-GT4's FTW!!!

Everyones telling me to get all these nice wheels, work/volk/rays etc but for when im using them for street driving, to spend 3k+ on a set of wheels with out rubber. when i can get replicas that look almost the same for under 1k...

i understand if im tracking them yes i agree dont use cheap wheels but.. 3k for rims thats a little much

Well probably cause you never posted a budget, and said you were open to anything.
Matched with the fact that a vast majority of the skylines on here sit on Rays,Ssr's,enki's,works,Volks and the occasional CCW's.
So we don't really think about replicas as an option.

And remember if you spend the coin on the rims and if you want to flip them you won't be lossing out much, can't say the same about knockoffs.

Soooooooo what's your budget?

Don't get offended but this is how I interpret:

Since you are not tracking, you can go replica because 3K is alot for street use.

Same idea, since it is street driving, why not get a NA GTS. You can make it look exactly the same as a GTR for 1/3 the price.

True, but i think you got it wrong. Im not using these wheels (the ones im in the search for) to track with. I have a set of 17x9 et+12 on my GTR right now that i would/plan to use on the track. The wheels in searching for now would when im not on the track, ie street driving.

I think my best bet now is save my money for the real deal. the wheels i have now i can use for track/street, (as im not sure how many times ill be on the track next summer) I need new rubber anyways. so might as well just get a good set of tires and be done with it.



Also, to RABBIT. I agree with you with re sell, then again there probably be more people in the market for a cheaper yet nice wheel vs a expensive and authenic wheel. I have bought GP-GR3 for my prelude when i had it and re sold them for acutally more then i paid. I also only used them for a summer so.

[C-unit]

I see. If you are on a budget, get a set of used branded wheels. 9/10 times you won't lose money when you sell it back out.

[RABBIT]

Yeah I bought all my rims used, my kakimotos made by SSR were 1100
And enki rp01's were 700

Ya, ill just keep my eyes open on the fs section or kijiji and hope to come accross a good deal.

Atleast i know my size, around 18x9/10 et+12/20 plus or minus. with that size i should be ok and not have any rubbing issues correct?

[Nvdgtr]

BBS LM 18x9.5 +35.. Whats a good size tire for that size of wheels. with out rubbing. I am running nismo stune suspension. so lowered but not a lot..

thx

Idunno I say don't cheap out man. If you wait a look around, save a little more coin and get some quality wheels.

Idunno about you but I would hate to tell people I'm running knockoff wheels. Or parts for that matter.

Don't need to have top notch 3K wheels buts there's deals out there. Pay to play.
