Hey I found a local shop, selling Silver Nismo Wheels for $1300 without tax. It's 18x8.5 +45, I know the offset is crappy (I have S13) but he said he will include 25mm or 30mm spacers for free (total 4 spacers).

Dude, he said it's forged, I think these are the cheapest forged wheel...So what do you think?

I hate nasty offsets, but theyre nice wheels for sure. I would imagine they are made for the Sentra..

I know... it's actually for Altima but it should look good on S13 with Silvia front end. Anyways he said he'll give me spacers for free

i wouldnt get them... you can get some FN's w/ tires for probably the same price plus theyd be at a better offset

I dont know, Ive never been a fan of spacers for obvious reasons.

$1300 is right on the brink of some serious wheels. Save up a couple hundred more and get some Gram lights which actually have some -decent- offsets.

I also would not get them.

They look EXACTLY like 18" Gram Lights 57C, which you can get for MUCH cheaper than 1300 bucks, and in better offsets as well.
