I really wish I could go out and pick up some good quality forged wheels like the OZ Superleggera but unfortunately saving for a house has got me being a little more practical. I'm usually that guy that believes in getting what you pay for. I don't know a whole if anything about these two wheels companies but I do like the designs. The only thing that's holding me back somewhat is the price of the Venti's. I've given them a call and the weights aren't bad for a 20" wheel either (27-28lbs). What do you guys think? Looks….. The cheap price is really keeping from doing anything at the moment, but it would be nice to keep the cash in my wallet.

Those just happen to be the wheels I'm leaning towards... The Revo mesh style is a little played out, you see it everywhere. . But they look good.

Is this a good website to look at for wheels/tires? I browsed around a little bit and they seem to have a good selection, but I have no idea if the prices are competitive or if I should just go to my local wheel/tire shop and have them ordered.

Unfortunately they don't say anything about the weight of the wheels, and I don't know enough about the different brands to just KNOW which ones are lighter :-)

I'm looking for nice flat black 18"ers. I was thinking about getting the Nismo ones and have them powdercoated black, but then if I get a scratch on them it'll look like a$$.

I do like the second wheels from the pictures above, though!

Wheelsnext, from my past few years of searching from other cars, is pretty competitive as far as price and has a large selection. The best part about their site is you can filter wheels very easily and decide from there what you want. Not to many brands make nice looking 20" black/polished wheels. The drawback is that they don't include weights, offsets, and bolt patterns.

So you guys are digging the Revos….. They would give me a deeper lip simply by design. The Venti's just have a different look that catches my eye. Of course they're both 3pc knockoffs

I wish I had made this a pole.....

I use them for refference only... Like I said the search engine is great. Not to bash against them, I've never bought anything from them

I bought some wheels from them about 4-5 years ago for my Eclipse. I didn't have any problems with them. Never had to use their customer service though so I couldn't tell you how that is.
