Need some help choosin rims!
Ok I originally wanted the 19' Racing Hart M5 3pc because they look tight as **** but unfortuntly or however the hell you spell, I am only 17 and have a job that pays 7.00 - 8.00 an hour. So with that in mind what do you guys think would be the most afforadable rims but not sacraficing weight or style.
Thanks,
Tom

Racing Hart C2 evos, VOLK GTN's(in Gun-metal), Racing Hart C5 evo's... Manna Rays(5 spoke ones)... these wheels are pretty expensive too, but not as much as The M5's in 19s multipiece... get the 18s... are u a 2dr or 4 door btw? i didnt see it in your description. i've seen all the wheels on our car except the Manna Rays. they look VERY nice all them. all are light(a relative term), damn nice lookin, and have nice lip on them, i LOVE the Volk GTNS on 2dr accord 6th generation, at first i didnt, but the more and more i looked at it, sweet and unique looking
Uh...I think he wanted some affordable rims...
Anyway, Axis rims are played out but they're nice. Everybody has Tenzo's (like me) but they're also very common on the road. You can try some knockoffs like Katana or Giovanna, but they're heavy.
Katana probably has the closest looking to the M5's. But they're heavy. Sorry dude, you get what you pay for. I wanted the 18" 3pc Racing Hart M5's too, but like you, I have to settle because I'm not much better: 18 years old and have a job that pays $10-12/hour.

tru, the wheels i chose were not cheap, however, a substitute for the M5 19's, thats all. im assuming that he knew the price of them, retailing well over 2 G's, so all the wheels i picked were ALOT less than that, except maybe the GTNs, which i've seen u can get a $1800-2000 at 18s just for the wheels. Andwho, yea, look at Axis, like the Touring cups, and Neos, i like both of them. i used to love them, but touring cups are played out a bit. Have u seen Rota? they have several brands I like, one of my fav's only come in 17s still i believe, they look EXACTLY like these SICK ADVAN wheels. there 5 spoke spilt star style wheels. VERY AFFORDAble, or the Subzeros in 18's. U can get them for around $800 for 18's, sick deal huh. The SUbzeros look similar to the Racing Hart CP-035N, they come with polished lip, gun-metal, white, and gold maybe even i forgot. oh, and tenzo's are nice as well, and 5Zigen, such as the Copse, Fireball, and Typhoons(nice lip on them).
yeah i have a 2dr accord and most people have been telling me to get gunmetal because it looks badass. If you guys got any pics of gunmetal rims on an accord please post em. What do the volk gtn's look like?
Thanks,

Sorry about that RKV, yeah, I knew that you're just trying to get him the best secondary choices. Maybe I dropped the price range too low.
And those Volks look good...maybe it's the car it's on though.

Centerline wheels have 19" for only 17 lbs, forged, and it not expensive.
BUT...nobody have them yet. So please check for quality first.
I'm just letting you know because the weight is yummy if it turn out to be good quality...

eliteaccord, nice picture man, that is a skyline right? with all them preludes and accords doing the skyline kit swaps, with alomost everything identical, from headlight to the actual body moldings, u cannot almost tell sometimes... like that yellow newest generation prelude that had all skyline stuff in the import tuner this year, or that girl with the baby blue 6th generation accord 2dr in all those import night pictures, something lam i think, with the C2 multiepiece wheels. anyway, ELITEACORD, those are the VOLK GTP's man, not the GTN's. but those are nice too, alot of supras have them, i liked them a lot by themselves, but in person, i didnt like it so much, the way the lip comes out is weird, but i like the GTN's better, tho i hated them at first. and Johnhsiung, i like ur wheels man alot, i would NOT count tenzo's as cheap wheels as u described. u could have got C2s for almost the same price u realize, but i like urs on ur car, nice photoshop work on ur profile, or whatever program that is.
ELITEACCORD< DAMN MAN, nice pics... ur a lucky bastard, when i went to japan long time ago, i was like 8, cant remember anything. anyway, dude is that u in that one picture? but, u kno those were Volk GTPs on that skyline, not GTN's... anyway, nice pics man. i didnt doubt it was a skyline, looked too nice, but u kno they make 240 SXs change to a silvia these days perfectly, thats y i said u never kno, some people are crazy and drop like 10 Gs on their looks alone of the car
