they come in all sizes and widths. A wheel like volks are something. I would not get in a knock off. They just look fake and cheap. Either get the real deal or a different wheel you can afford.

 

[Jason84]

oh i can afford them.... im just afraid i might bend them or hit a curb or something.

rota also makes a set that look like them

 

[Jason84]

thats not the fact... its just like why spend 2 grand on wheels when you can spend $160 a wheel....

I hear you on that one. IMO, there is no point in buying the most expensive wheel you can with a certain look unless you are actually going to use it for show or it's going to provide some major performance gain over the ones with a similar look.

An option if you have a japanese friend is go to Yahoo Auctions Japan. You can find volk wheels for massive discounts. Sometimes, $800 for a full set like these 18" Volk Challenge:

When the Japanese junk cars here, they tend to junk the whole car, and whatever is in/on it for some reason...stereo systems, wheels, etc. So the junk yards end up auctioning the mods.

to answer your question straight forward:
Konig Rated-R rims
Rota Grid rims
Enkei Rs-6(not really but it has a similar style)
and those nippon wheels mentioned above. i am sure there is more as that is a very popluar rim style.
good luck with the purchase!

Rays Engineering wheels don't bend.

That being said, if you're 1) Dumb enough to run into a curb, and 2) Think you're going to be fooling people with a knock off rim, I weep for our future.

ever hear of an accident ?? guess not...

if i did buy rays wheels and some moron hit me... i very highly doubt there insurance will cover the wheels(being $500 a rim im sure they would fight it) and the town where i live there are a bunch of morons.. and i mean like 95% morons..... half of them dont even have liability insurance(yes they really are that stupid) most of them say i cant afford it... well hit somebody and pay there $15 grand in hospital bills... afford that !
and this morning i almost got taken out by some moron looking at me and pulling out infront of me when i was doing 40.... looked me right in the eyes when she pulled out.. and i had probably about 5 feet to stop.... thank god i upgraded my brakes otherwise i probably wouldnt have my car now. i should have just hit her.... im sure it wouldnt have been a pretty accident.. Tboned on the drivers side.
