I am runnin 17x9 +/-0 Hot Wheels Sixty Eights and I get a ton of compliments. They are available in Black/polish, Chrome, and straight Polish. I have them in the straight Polish. They also have a higher offset if you wanna run the higher offset in the front. Not expensive either, about 600-700 shipped!If i could do it over, I would probably run a bit smaller tires, the 245/50 is a bit over kill, and the front fenders are wider than normal so you definately need a roll if you get the 17x9 +/-0 for the front.

Wheels...not rims.

I'd say go with some OEM Nissan wheels like S14 SE wheels (5 spoke and 8- double spoke), Z32 Wheels, Maxima, R32, R33 wheels...of course you gotta do a 5 lug conversion first for all of these.

But if you wanna stay with 4, you can always get a set of old school meshies by Enkei, Riken, Volk, etc.

...and then of course there's always Rota and Sportmax wheels.

Oh yeah check the two vert photo galleries. You should find some good stuff in there.

Oh, yeah. I forgot about those. Twin Turbo model wheels are wider and look better IMO.

For OEM wheels, I like SE-R Spec V with spacers (vroom chirp had them on his vert): zerothread?id=280248

Rota D2, Advan SA3R, whatever rims 94_240sx has on his white vert are all good aftermarket wheels for a vert.

I like the Sportmax 002 (hence why I bought them). Also the Rota D2 (probably end up with them on my coupe). And do like some of the 3 spoke wheels, like the SA3R mentioned.

FNs are also good, but I really only like the 17x9 +20. The 17x8 +35 just isn't as good of offset. This is 4-lug of course.

no i sold them because the offset i had really sucked.. the rears where fine they were like 28 but the fronts were 32 or 34. i had to run spacers and get extended lugs.
