i have the stock s13 hubcaps, and to put it quite frankly i hate them :puke. I was looking for something not flashy or agressive but that looks decent.
The stock se aluminum wheels are ok for my tastes but arent that great, i want to see if i have other options first. I will only get them used if my budget is hurtin.
Id like to stay with 4 lug wheels thats are practically bolt on (no lug conversion kits etc.)
I saw a certain style wheel and im having trouble identifying them and finding who sells them. Heres a link to a 240sx that has them. The page says they are "15 X 7 ASA" but google didnt find anything.:eyecrazy
If you know of a place that sells the rims above, or any that are similar, please let me know! Comments wanted too!

you might want to try http://www.discounttiredirect.comclick on wheels, put in the info of your carand instead of selecting 15 or 16 wheels, click on packageI just bought those 5spoke rage "breaker" 16" rims which look pretty much stock on the pic but looks nice in person. i got them with free shipping, 16 lugs, 4 locking nuts, free balancing warranty and everything.
I'll try and post up a pic later of the rims. . .if you're interested, i can tell you how i knocked off almost 150$ on them

nice
kami that design wasnt at the top of my list before... but goddamn $700 - $150 with friggin tires? very very tempting.
i have stock brakes on there tho, wouldnt the fugly brakes and brake rotors kinda take away from the look, since u can now actually see them, which im sure havent been taken care of that well hidden behind the stock hubcap wheels.
i would like to discuss whats involved with the discount tho, if u cant talk about it here leave ur email if possible. thanx.

sorry for the long replyI got those 16x7 rims with Kumho Ecsta Supra 205/50R16's with locking lugs, balance and everything from my local discount tire co. store
They originally quoted me like 100each for the tires, 95each for the rims and probably some extra for the certificates and locking lugs. I told them i found a cheaper price, 82$ for the tires on discounttiredirect.com and so they price matched it. That's probably the lowest you can go with that. the other 100$ i got off was almost purely by luck. My mom was paying for these cause she wants me to focus on college and not work and i didn't want her to pay for them so i told her i can get these "General 7000" tires for 45$each or something. i went home to get my car, came back and the guy said, if you buy the package, i'll sell it to you for 800, i told him i couldn't cauze i had no money. I was getting my el cheapo tires installed and then my mom called up and they guy offered 750$ after tax and everything if she wanted to pay. And so she did :-D
I have no idea if this helps, but you can go to discount tire and get them to price match discounttiredirect's price
