        Diamond Racing wheels look really good, I personally love the way they look with the polished lips. However, I've heard of lots of problems with them going out of true/warping pretty easily, since they aren't totally meant for day to day driving on roads w/ potholes, dips, etc. My buddy has a set on his rabbit, and they warped pretty quick. He still runs them cause they look pretty good.



        I really think Ronal Turbos could look cool on your car if you ran some spacers! I had a set on my mk2 GLI, and I loved them. I ran them with the Federal 165/45 tires and they looked pretty rad.



        Hope this helps a bit, and GL with your wheel search. Looking forward to seeing updates on this project

            shit, seandub, totally missed your post. in all honesty, my price range originally was not to go over $500. i then realized that was kind of unreasonable. so i would like not to go over $1,000

                    With a budget of $1k or less, get the DR steelies, or hunt on craigslist. Nice wheels are more than that.

                        Haha join the club man, I'm still looking for the right wheels. The problem is I have expensive taste and don't have the money to back it up.

                            I think they're designed for tracks, so they are pretty soft, but I've heard they make them for street use too if you ask for it. You just tell them you want to use them on public roads or whatever, but then they have to make them. I think it takes like a few weeks for them to finish the set and I'm not sure if it costs extra.

                            I read about it on clubnico like 2 years ago so I would look into it some as I probably don't remember some of it correctly or something might have changed since then.

                              And dude I just looked it up and your car has a 4x100 lug pattern, right? Check VW Vortex, they have a section for 4x100 wheels F/S in the vw classifieds and audi classifieds. Also check e30 forums. You shouldn't have much trouble finding nice wheels for a good price. The only thing you might have trouble with is figuring out the right width's and offsets to have a nice fitment, since I don't think there is much info on saturns as far as how fat of a wheel or how low of an offset wheel you can fit.
