Hey, I was wondering what was your guys opinion on the best deal with wheels for the money. It terms of looks, weight, and just overall performance. Any info would be awesome.... thanks.

I'd say OEM wheels are the best bang for the buck. Check out the Wheel FAQ sticky at the top of this forum. It can give you an idea of what other makes will fit on Nissans.

Mustang wheels are a good deal. Nice wide 16 or 17's for cheap (under $500/set). Check the classifieds on some Mustang forums for used wheels or visit http://www.gefracing.com or Summit Racing for new ones.

FNO1RC's hands down.

800 for a set of 17x9s that fit perfect, and are as light as wheels costing twice as much.

MB Weapons...17x9+17 offset...much better looking than the "goes-agains"

also the mb competitions are nice if you can find them...

A wheel brand that is popular in motorsports is Team Dynamics. Affordable and light from what I have heard.(for their competition weels)

^^^ werd

team dynamics pro race 1.2 come in a bunch of sizes, and are a little lighter and a tad cheaper than FN's...i think the reason more people dont have them is because of availability
