  • Cool Wheels?

    Do you guys have any suggestions for wheel brands on the cheaper side of things? Like along the lines of reps and wheels like that. Please and thank you.

      rather than buy cheap reps, maybe consider used original wheels that need a refinish.
      the gratification of doing the refinish work is a great feeling and the rims will be worth more when your done and in case you want to sell later.

      if you are open to used old school rims, there's more choices out there. figure out the specs you need like wheel size ET and bolt pattern and start hunting ebay Vortex and Stanceworks...or just Google the bolt pattern...or consider adapters and subtract 15mm from your ET...and start hunting. do the work and you'll be rewarded.

        3SDM's are cheap off the shelf. and the 0.05's suit everything.

        3SDM is a manufacturer of luxury and performance cast, spin forged and fully forged 1pc and 3pc alloy wheels. Hampshire, UK and California, USA.

          cheap but I don't think thats the cheap hes looking looking for. my guess is in the 400-500$ price range.
          I just bought some oz fittipaldi wheels for 400, they are 3 piece and need some work but they will look awesome, and fixing them up should cost less than 60$. Reps have terrible resale value too, fixing up some oldschool wheels can be a good investment, and they will look better on your car.
          I have to redrill mine or run adapters, my cars 5x112 and the wheels are 5x120. So thats like another 200$ to consider, plus conical bolts and hubcentric rings, 40 for bolts 20 for rings. (all of that may or may not be needed with both reps or the real thing) just add up everything before you buy. Also just because reps are new does not mean they are safer or better than old ugly wheels.
