its not about the money you spend its how you spend it. im far from an expert on rims, but i would hit up the rim and tire section for a better answer. good luck with your purchase, i wish i had a grand to drop personally.

i dont think anyone makes good looking chrome reeimz for 240s.

perhaps something polished, but chrome plating is fairly American Racing of you.

look online for wheels in your price range, and pick a set of wheels yourself.

you dont want chrome. you want polished.

Please get coilovers before you buy wheels. It will make it look a billion times better. No, eleventy billion times better.

Come on tramp.... we are the teachers of our obsession, we should guide and encourage not smash his optimism. His car could look like that but not if he starts out with wack rollers.

THEY'RE WHEELS!! NOT REIMMZZ!!!

wheels.

And on a black car, I've always found going black or gun metal looks fairly good too.

I vote. . .

I agree that you need to get coils first, but sorry guys... Slammed Black Car + Good Side skirts + Good Chrome Wheels = Visual Orgy; which is congruent to A Pu$$y Magnet. If you're balling out, go this route...

Work VS KF

or

Work VS XX

Try to get as close to this as you can

18x10.5 -12 wrapped with 225/40/18's under stock fenders. There will be no limit to the pu$$y that will fall into your lap...

That looks pretty hot but what happens when you have to turn the front wheels? It will rub the sh*t out of the fenders.

Also I can understand stretched tires but 225's on a 10.5" wheel... thats just retarded.

OH!!! You want functional! Here you go!





Work Meister fitment. I think VS KF & VS XX are available in these sizes too...front - 18x10+18 265/35/18 rear - 18x11+18 285/35/18

Not for the faint of heart though...

Nope. It is completely functional. No Rubbing. Of course, he hammered his wheel wells to keep that from happening. Like I said... Not for the faint of heart.

And this was his most modest setup. He eventually went on to mount 285/35/18 in front and 315/35/18 out back all on stock fenders.
