I'm thinking about changing up my Rims. I'm looking for something 17x8 with around a 42mm offset, the lighter the better but I don't have a huge budget to work with...

I don't seem to be having much luck looking around so if anyone has any idea's feel free to post em up.
 
5 Zigen FNO1RC is always a good choice IMO. And although its very cliche...this color would look amazing on a black car

Its a nice light wheel, available in lots of colors and sizes. For the price, you really cant beat it :thumb:

EVO 8, EVO9, EVO MR wheels fit our cars perfectly and are cheap. People sell them on our local forums for 400-600 for 8-9 wheels and 700-800 for MR wheels
 
Not really my brightest area to shine in. But my budget-wheel-of-choice suggestion is to take a look at Team Dynamics wheels. Ludachris got a set and I got to see them in person and they are amazing! They look better then any other wheel for the price. Not only is the style different but the coating on the wheel looks durable!
 
you can get used 17x8.5 volks for like $1500-1800 w/tires. all over the evo forums

or how about some work emotion cr
 
My favorite's always been the Racing Hart C5's...Six97GST has them on his:

I was actually looking at the Team Dynamic rims as my buddy can get them fairly cheap, but the style I like only comes in 17x7 :cry:
 
Probably around 1200, although I'm not desperate. If I can't find anything I like I'll just stick with what I got.
 
Get some Work Emotions then.
They are a VERY strong wheel and they are very well designed too. I have had a bunch of wheels in my cars life so far, I've had heavy Konig's, G-Games, TE37's, Work Emotions, and now RE30's. I'd say best wheel besides the Volk's I've had were the Work's. I thought they were a very strong wheel and also a quality wheel for the price.
Here's a link to the best price I could find on the Works. I ordered my Zeal coilovers from this place, so it's cool. :)

After you factor in the exchange rate, shipping, and all the brokerages fee's I would have to pay I would be well over $1500...
 
EVO 8 Enkei's for the win.

I bought a set for $120 in perfect shape and can get 4 nitto 555dr's for about 570.
 
I still have the old Enkei RF1's. I really like these from Enkei:

Either of these would look damn sexy on your car.
