Need some opinions
first off, my rims were stolen off my car about a week ago and I dont want the same ones.....do u guys think some 16in. bronze wheels would look nice or should I go with gungrey....and I was also thinkin about black with a chrome lip....as of right now, im leaning towards bronze....not sure what kind but if anyone has any ideas, they would be greatly appreciated
has to be a rim and tire package somewhere around $600-$800

yeah just look around. maybe even some lightly used rims like rotas and such go for around that price.
bronze slips, c-8's, c-10's, grids, GT-3 would look hot as would polished slips
not a big fan of black/polished lip on EPB but if you like it then go with it.
i'd also look into OEM wheels, since they look good and are a nice price, usually lower than 600-800. Si's, LS, Gsr blades all look hot

Here we go again, someone always has to add their lil comment telling someone to get rid of something on their ride. I mean come on now he most likely bought the eyelids cause he liked them same reason I bought mine.
Anyways, the black with the polished lip would be my first choice but u can't get those, I've already had my performance shop order me a set package ran $1900 and we already seem to be mimicking each other already lol, same year Si, same projectors, same eyelids. my next choice would be the gungrey, i'm not a big fan of the bronze but u know how I feel it's your ride, your money, your choice. By the way did u get a chance to check out the gallery again. We got the new pics up

Well dude, because your my boy, if you want my OEM wheels, make n offer. Like i said your my boy so go as low and you feel comfortable. Im getting gold GT3's next paycheck so i wont be needing them....Ive always been a sucker for a red car with gold/polished lip rims...
Or go on EBAY and search for DRAG RIMS. Super affordable rims...
