can someone give me a few suggestions on a good quality and affordableafter market wheel. i've been looking for awhile now and can't make a decision where as i have no baseline for comparisons. i see all the ads in eurotuner or even sport compact carfor wheel distributors and their $999 wheel and tire specials but i'mpretty sure most of those are junk. i'm looking to spend about $1500 on wheels and tires. is this doable for good quality wheelsordo i need toincrease my budget? thanks.

 

go to edgeracing.com Flik wheels are pretty inexpensive, most are light and good quality. Enkei's have some for a good price and are race quality also

 

I was gonna suggest Flik's too. I don't think they make anything bigger than 18's though, IMO TT's need 19's to fill up the whole wheel well.

 

1500 is plenty for a good wheel and tire combo i got mine for around 900 with generals new tire and konig 17in(not planning on keeping them for long but are a light wheel and look decent)

 

I am going to be selling my Konigs and going with FLIK here this fall most likely. Pretty cheep and they look nice too...Since we are talking wheels anyone seen gold wheels on a TT??

 

i was actually thinking of going with gold on my silver tt. i originally wanted to go with black for a stealthy look but the golds do look pretty nice.

 

heh. ur in luck. i'm lookin to sell my wheels, let me know whatsup. they're 18"x7.5 gold BBS RG Replica's wrapped in Kumho Ecsta's (225/40/18, got the tires mounted in jan. 07') they're some rashes on the lip, which are totally un-noticeable. i'll let them go for cheap, under $1k for all 4 wheels.

 

So murder, is it bad im going to stick with 17's?
Erin, how about silver TTand bronze wheels? Im about 80% sure im getting a certain wheel when i get the funds. Ill just say 17x9"

 

Haha nice!!! Yea I am going back to 17's here this fall I just have to find someone that likes the current ones that I have on there. I was going to spend a $$$ load of it and then go with Motegi Traklites and do the whole conversion to 5x114 but that was for 14lb wheels. would be nice but that will be later, 18lbs a wheel is ok for me....

 

what is generally considered to be light for a 18x7.5" wheel? thanks.
