b16 rims

[topFlight_Nissan]

hey guys, i'm new to cars and i just got my 08 Sentra 2.0 and i'm in love with it. So i'm trying to pick out rims for my car. Any suggestions as to what brands are good, what size, etc.? pics would help. And also, if i'm going to order it online, what kind of information do i need about my wheel to make sure it fits? Thanks for any input!

Go to www.tirerack.com and pick your make/model and then you can choose whatever wheels and/or tires you like. You can even view what the rims will look like on your car. Pretty neat stuff.

Welcome to NicoClub!
Just take your time and don't rush in to buying the 1st set of rims you see.

[DarkAquarius]

The TireRack.com, 1010Tires.com, konig.com are just a few places you can get rims from. Take your time. Good luck.

how come there are no 19" rims?

[lino]

Aren't 18s enough?

[TOMMY VERCETTI]

Just Go with 18's Dude. Stay away from putting on 19's on a B-16.

yeah, i'mma go with the 18"/eibach sportline combo.. still havent found the right one though. Anyone got any wheel ideas for a black b16?

18's will work and look great, 19's on a B16 is just asking for trouble. There is a helpful link here under the tech section for wheel fitment

holy crap that tripped me out, my girlfriend told me the same thing and her name is LINO also...

[topFlight_Nissan]

ok Nico Club.. i need ya'lls professional opinion on these rims. I'm picky and these are the first and probably last set of rims i will ever buy.

i'm not trying to make my car into a race car, i'm going purely for aesthetics, so i don't mind the weight.. i have a black b16 w/ black tail lights and headlights with a chrome billet grille, and of course, sportlines...

yes or no?

also, is 8.5 too wide?

[TOMMY VERCETTI]

Just take a look at Tirerack.com. Try to go with a 17x7 wheel. 8.5 is way too wide. Go with 7inch wide. Also, when your looking for a set of wheel look at how much the wheels weigh. Try to find a wheel less then 20-21lbs.
I don't know the color of your B-16 but why not look at these and see if you like.

8.5 will fit with a decent offset, like 33ish. some tire websites tell you the offset. lots of b16ers have 18's, if you have the money, do it.

will 8.5 with a 35 offset work?

[unmei]

yes, i've seen them at +40 and +33, so depending on how far you want them to stick out...+35 should work. also depends on what tire too, so contact whatever company you're buying them from to double-check.
