Hey guys. I've been looking at wheels and i have finally settle on these. I was looking for something that is an upgrade from the stock 18s.

Something that was...

-A good brand-Relatively cheap-The same weight or lighter-Preferably 19s or bigger.

I was looking at buddy club P1 Racing II Plus.



retail is around 1200$ shipped.

I got them for 550$. NEW!!!! its an early xmas present to myself.

if anyone wants the link... i think there are still some left.

What he said ^^^^^

If I were you, I'd look into getting some 25mm spacers for the front and some 35 (if they make them) in the rear. Make sure you get ones with pressed in studs.

I am not a fan of spacers eventhough I have had them in mind for while. I think its best to get a good set of wheels with better off sets.

I just got a set of 18X9.5 rears and 8.5 fronts with a 32mm front offset and 35mm rear offset off ebay for about the same price. Mine were the Stern rims, now just gotta get some tires........thinkin I will wait till spring to mount so I don't bump into a curb during this winters snow.....new rims are like magnets to curbs!

This is the rear, I think it's supposed to be either hyperblack or gunmetal in the center with a machined lip.......2" on the front and 3" on the rear.They're just a shade or two darker than the car...just what I wanted.
