Wheels for S13.5?

[Nismo240SX]

well, as some of you know, i'm doing the s15 front on my s13. I've got the Konig Verdicts which are a knock-off of the r34 skyline wheels. i like the wheels on this, they're Works i believe http://members.aol.com/iskylinel/images/sig , but they're gonna cost a pretty penny. i'm doing a red-top swap as well, so i'm on a tight budget. I've been looking at Buddy Club PII's, and these http://www.wheelmax.com/Wheels/kaizer/circus-sm.gif, which are the knock off's of the Works. I don't really care about weight, since i'm actaully going to have HP now. ;) All i really care about is having good offset. What do you guys think? Thanks.

Heavy Wheels = Unsprung Weight.

Dunno if you care much...

I don't think the Konig Verdict is a knock-off of the R34 wheel, but that's not important right now. What is important is that you DO NOT get those Kaiser wheels! Unless they come in a +0 offset, which is unlikely. 17x7.5 (or even worse, 18x7.5) +40 will look like utter shit. Cross them off your list immediately!

I would get the PIIs, or Kosei K1s if you don't mind not having a lip, and judging from your other choices, you do not.
Kosei K1 = Same exact wheel as Buddy Club PI, BC just rebadges them and ups the price accordingly...

so the Work knock-offs suck? Any other knock-offs that have good offsets? thanks again.

The PII are realllllly good...but they are also really expensive.(that is if you want one with a lip) i would go with Buddy club over the knock off works....

:ughd: okay.....

[Salty_X]

If you buy those knock-offs baby jesus is going to cry...

Budget = Kosei K1

[Dousan_PG]

[Nismo240SX]

DT05R GB at tougefactory.com ends on the 25th so hurry. http://www.tougefactory.com/main2.htm
great sizes, 4 lug or 5. since you've got power, you could get the 17x9.5's (drool). they're nismo lmgt4 knockoffs. i would've gotten some but i'm saving for tanabe RUCA's.

i was wondering, is it me or anybody else notice those rims don't look one bit close to the looks of the r34 rims? or maybe it did exist on a lower model that i didn't really pay attention to......

look similar besides the color and the lines on the spokes and the offset and center cap

[zombieman]

i thought he was talking about the rims he was showing in the pictures.... not really a fan of knock off so i'm not really familiar with what company make knock off and the names for it....

if you where on socal, you could have soo much better luck with used jdm wheels that will have pimp sizes and offsets.

Im sure all these guys will agree, if your conversion is nice, depending on what wheels you go with will kill it, i.e. those tuner wheels you selected first or anything on wheelmax.com...

If your 5lug, id consider these, they are good price, really good size, and would look sick with your s15 front end. Look liek Gram lights. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findWheelDetail.do?step=details&source=brand&index=0&productCodeIndex=51027
