Thread: Opinion on wheels.

Hello, so i have a 2001 red coupe with ugly ass triangular (aka snowflake)
wheels and am getting sick and tired of them.

So i have around $550 to spend on wheels, i already have Goodyear F1 gs-2's.

Which ones do you think would look better?

First set



Moda Md5

Stern St-1

Offset 38
Bolt pattern 5x114.3
18x8

These dont include hub centric rings, im not sure if id need them.



Also how much is it to get a set of wheels and tires mounted and balanced usually?

Thanks

neither IMO. i hate when they go fat middle to skinny outside...and the black one's belong on a civic, but if you are asking which one is better, the moda's.

From what you chose, neither... Nr.1 if I had no other choice.

Save another hundred and get Saleens 18' w/ +35 offset.

i'd go Stern's. pretty sure those are a high end wheel! only if u are lowered!

Those are stern st-1's and yeah, are usually much more expensive and look very good on a guy on club gp's car.

But i also think they look a little cheap/ricer.

I dont want to add 40 lbs (32lbs each) with the 18x9 saleens. If they had 18x8 then hell yeah.

Anybody know any other good sites for wheels around $500?
