Name off some aftermarket wheels!

Ok so I know I've been starting a bunch of threads but anyway... Aight this is the last one hopefully regarding wheels I want something that doesn't cost an arm and a leg 500 per wheel tops but I'll look at stuff that is cheaper so... Could you guys post any brands that you think are reliable that I should check out I don't know of many I'm relatively new to the car scene and want to research but I don't know what's good and what isn't or what to look for by name so that's why I ask here. So let me know thanks!

PS: I know about AG, Apex, and SSR. What else is there that you guys have run or are currently on?

You don't want to spend more than $500 per wheel, but are willing to finance a $6k IPE exhaust?

I don't think even the Forgestar F14 are $500/wheel and those are lower end lol. And if your go into BBS and HRE territory it's more like $2k/wheel.

Best bet might be picking up a used set of ZCP wheels, they are one of the best looking sets for this car anyways.

Why would I spend like 3k-4K on wheels that will eventually get fucked up scraped or curb rash in the future and then I'll be pissed off and want to replace them and have to drop way more the exhaust on the other hand a lot harder to damage. Plus it's way more worth it lmao...

PS: I don't know why your wasting your time responding with some shit like that I'm simply asking a question and you are coming in here and posting useless responses...

Yea I want that style but I want to go wider that's the only reason I'm not getting them.

Spend money on the wheels unless it's a Starbucks hard parker then doesn't matter save money on wheels so have enough for wing with 3 foot tall stands and set to 45 degree angle of attack so you look super fast!

What do you plan on using the car for? Track? DD? Both?

I'm an Apex fan boy. Incredible value for what you get.

I agree. I love Apex wheels. I don't track or even autox (I can't because I own a cavalier z24 E93 M2.99999). They're light(er) and very good bang for your buck.

I'm also even considering refinishing OEM 220Ms, mine have a considerable amount of curb rash from the PO. Clean 220Ms look so good!

Wheels only get curb rash if you're a shitty driver. Mistakes happen (I nicked one of my older Volk sets), but make the investment and just be more mindful.

I will eventually but for right now I want something different I'm really tired of the oem 220Ms and I've never curb rashes wheels in my life that was just an example.

Yea I would've gone apex but they don't offer them in black and if I paint the wheels the warranty is taken off... So I can't get them... Sadly

The possibilities are literally endless if you include wheels from the used section.

My favorite current boutique wheel manufacturers, in order of preference:

1) H3LLAD3RP
2) ADVQUS-100
3) Murcaforged

All three very exclusive, but #1 really sets itself apart with its customer service, they really go the extra derp

Hey shut up, 275 RS3's don't have much curb protection on 10" wheels ok, jeez, JUDGEMENTAL, whatevs







At least all three times I've whacked a curb with my "nice" wheels it was the same damn wheel, wheels which aren't made anymore I might add

Check out vorsteiner VFF101 or 103, they are around 2k a set.

Also, Forgestar F14 is like 1600-1800 per set and Forgestar CF5V should be around 1500.
