Default Looking for AFFORDABLE wheels..

I was druling over the Simmon's wheels until I saw the price..

Would like the Torquethrust in 18's but, they're too common.

Trying to go w/ a black and red theme w/ my Z...

Tried Tire Rack....nah.....


Any Sugestions?

Alamogordo? Ewwwwwwwwwww...Holloman.

Good luck finding affordable wheels that aren't too common AND look good. Definitely easier said than done.

Thanks man...I waited a long time for these wheels (well, at least to save the money for them...once I ordered them, they were on my door step in a week, even with a hurricane).

Now to wait even longer to build up the rest of my car
