New Wheel Advice

Hey Guys,

So i'm getting the itch to get some new wheels as i have had my current set (19'' Matte Black VMR 710) for about 1 year.

I admit i dont know a whole lot about wheels so im asking you guys for some suggestions.

Here is a list of my criteria:

1) $3,000 price point (would like to stay at or under this if possible).
2) Would like them to be 4-6 lbs lighter than my current set (28 lbs).
3) Would prefer a black color option (Not a deal breaker as i can always have them powder coated).
4) Durable, Houston roads suck.
5) 19'' prefered.

Thanks for your help!

-Mike

You may want to include the sizing you are looking for.

For a light wheel I like the Advan RS, it comes in a dark gunmetal color.

Here is a pic of some 18" for sale, but they also can be purchased in a 19".

The Advan RS are a great choice for your budget, and we carry the 19" versions. There is the RS-D (Deep Dish) available in black if you are set on that color. They are much lighter than stock wheels, and are very durable. Here are a couple pictures of Advans:

Let me know if you have any questions
