Ok, thanks for the pointers, I feel so stupid not seeing New Poll, lol, anywho here are the pics.

Things to take in mind, these pictures are of the rims but mostly for image purposes, some have 5 lug setup but I know I will be getting 4 lug.

I dont want to go with any colour, mainly cause I will be installing a black body graphic soon and I dont want to wop out my V. (For those of you who do have coloured rims, I am not saying they are ugly, just not the style I am into right now) These are my only options as well guys, so although they all might suck, which ones look better than the rest.

MOTEGI DP-12 17"

ADR VENOMOUS 17"

KONIG UNKNOWN 18"

URBAN RACING TYPE 6 17"

5ZIGEN SUPER 6

I'd have a different choice of wheels from any of those four but if it had to be one of just those 4 wheels, I'd go with the Motegi.

Edit: Actually stuck between the Motegi and Urban. Don't like the two middle ones though. I hate the whole two-tone thing.

If I'm not mistaken, the hot version is black with a red stripe.



But I agree. I have the FN01R-C on my 240 and it looks superb. I wouldn't go so far as 17". 16" maybe.

Agree that I don't really like any of the options. But the 1st one out of those choices.

Would recommend the 5Zigen FNs or some Rotas or something.

What color is the car?

I voted #1, but I prefer the Rotas.

Actually, I want to see someone do some old-school Wats-style wheels on a Versa.

Anyone can call me what they wish, but I don't know what kind of wheels you are referring to, Greg. Just a bit curious as to what they are.

This is my car when I first got her. I find the rims you guys are posting look so plain and look alot like what people are buying today and even some stock rims on vehicles. My GF thinks the ones I have posted are unique and that they stick out rather than plain looking ones. She said be a leader not a follower, lol.

They may look plain, but I go for the clean and simple look cause it's easier on the eye. Sometimes it's better to have 'less is more' mentality cause if it looks too busy, it would be distracting to some people. Just some advice for you.

It's hard to tell what I'd prefer unless they're pictured on the car.

Have you checked out anything by five:AD or Liquid Metal Motorsports. I think they've got some nice options.

Watanabe wheels. Classic old-school JDM.

Dude, that's the ticket!

Seriously, I voted for none of the rims originally posted - they just clash with the entire Versa appearance. Heck, I don't know what car they'd look good on. Too many fake rivets, odd angles, and general edginess for such a round car.

Those Watanabe's, however, would really compliment the Versa's French-inspired shape. Sorry, but the others here just cheapen the car.

And I'm not sure if you've taken care of that wheel gap with your current rims, but that's not helping the bear-on-a-tricycle look.

Super 6 isn't bad. Like it a lot more than the other 4. Just don't put a tire that can barely stretch to the rim width because that's what seemed to happen in the photo you put up.

Nope, I just found this pic on Google search. The tires I am going with are Falken Azenis RT-615 and are the right match for the Super 6. I think alot of Sentra S-ER V Spec owners use this rim, but yeah, I like these more than the others, actually I just went ahead and bought them and the tires.

JUST BOUGHT:

5Zigen Super 6 17" Aluminum Rims - $1400 Shipped and TaxFalken Azenis RT-615 225/45ZR17 Tires - $1000 Shipped and Tax

Total: $2400 CDN Shipped and Tax's In. Wow, only did the math now!! Oh well!
