I'm looking for some wheels for my zenki s14 without much luck. It is 4 lug and I want to keep it like that so please no "why don't you just go 5 lug" replies. OK, so I'm looking for somthing like 16x8 all the way around with a fairly aggressive offset, somthing between 0 and +10 and I can't find hardly anything. I'm not real picky, I like alot of different styles, the only thing that really matters is the size and offset, I just want somthing kinda close to the specs mentioned above. Any advise?

I'm thinking about getting the rota grid 16x8 +10, that looks like the best option so far, I can't find anywhere that has them except autornd, anyone know anywhere else with better prices?

I htink the rota grids with the 10+ and 20+ offset was an AutoRND exclusive, if you did find another place that had them they would probably be the same price or +/- $50

Hey,

Which email address did you send the email to? Shoot me a PM on the boards if you have a question and I will get back to you ASAP. You should check out the group buy we have going for 4 lug P45 Staggered setup. Only need 1-2 more people to special order them in Royal Gold.

18x8.5 +25
18x9.5 +30

Here is the 5 lug version on a s14

Its not that easy when you want the offset I want and you don't want any larger than 16". As far as I know the only one in that list that even meets that criteria is the Rota Grids, I don't like the banana spoke look on an s14 (rewinds) and everything else isn't made in 16" unless I'm missing somthing. I do like the dt05r and the P45's but they don't make 16's.

Why do you want 16's so bad you have an s14. It's either grids or some custom work/volk/gramlights but you don't sound like you want to spend that much money.

Just personal taste, money is part of it, tire cost as well, but its not the main part. I like the way 16's look on s14's. The grids would be great if I could get them somewhere, but theve been on backorder forever and everyone I found selling them won't ship. The point of this post was to see what other kinds of options I had within the specs that I listed.

Yeah check out 17 inch rims cost $50-150 more for all four, check tire prices too. 17s are so widespreed used, tires are sometimes cheaper for them based on width/mfnr/where you buy them from. At most its like $5-15 more. Just something to think about to expand your options.
