Hey I am ready to get rid of my ugly 16" rims.

I have been searching the forums and looking at some options. I was wondering if you all would be willing to put in your input.

I am interested in 5 or 6 thick spoke type rims. Also I think I want 18" I want to be able to use Brembro brakes in the future.

Here are some rims that I like which would you go with?

Tenzo DC-6 Version 1

You know, You cant go wrong with some EVO 8-9 wheels, I had mine wrapped in 235/45/17's and it looked sick.
But if I were to choose from the selection you have posted it would be those VOLK's, for sure. Those are just pure sexy, And If they are going on the car in your avatar then i think they will flow better with the color than the black wheels will. JMO though.
 
Can you say Craigslist rims!? Hahaha

If you can find a pair then you save money!!!

Evo 8 / 9 have my vote!
 
I have a set of fno1rcs on my 2g 17x8 and they are pure sex. They look just as good on my 1gs. Not a big fan of the fno1rcs in black though, mine are silver. Those tenzo dc6s come in second though since they look pretty nice.

Lancer Evolution VIII wheels with Brembo brakes all around. Certainly not the best wheel but certainly gets the job done.

Sidenote: I'm surprised you're running a 16" wheel when GSX's come stock with 17"s. :idontknow:

17" wheels will fit Brembos. Just make sure you get the right offset.

i had the ADR gt-sports (same ones posted above) on my dsm and i loved them. they fit so well.
 
The tenzos have an expensive ssr type look to them. Don't forget xxr 521s I believe. They're te37 copies and they offer some really aggressive offsets. I'm running some xxr 527 ce28 copies. Love the sizes they offer. These are 18x8.75 +35.
