    Yep.

    I think the SP1 knockoffs you have listed above would look nice, so see if you can find a set of SSRs or similar that maybe need some refinishing. You'd be amazed at what you can afford on the used market.

    It doesn't matter what he says, if it's what you want to do, then do it.

    My mom thinks that because I spent $15 on some center caps for my stock wheels that I have money coming out of my asshole.



    Look into getting some used real wheels.

    thanks for the help guys! i think i will stick with the Avalon, my dad is talking to me like, why would you put work/money into a car like this, but i think it can look sick, and thanks for those pictures for some inspiration. Ive been looking around and found some wheel that are pretty good price and was wondering if you guys think which look better, i will probably paint my car black, dark navy or maroon, dark military green or something.

    Han's 240sx


    Your funny man. Too funny.



    Seriously keep the avalon, the s chassis cars aren't anything to go crazy over. Plus, they used a couple toyota avalons in that movie

    Stick with the Avalon! 240s are nice and there is a HUGE Aftermarket for them, but WHO HAS A STANCED AVALON? I'm all for the unique platform...

    Not necessarily "popular" products, but ones that you know will last and you can trust.

    Stance wheels are sold at autozone I think hahaha. Read reviews, and learn as much as you can about the products you want, and try to hear both sides of the story.

    If you want to keep your budget down, do it once and do it right.

    haha, ive kind of realized that by now. But would you say yay or nay to going with off brand wheels, parts, etc to save money, or would your save up for more popular products?
