Well although I've looked alot recently I haven't been able to find a set of rims. I'm hoping I might be lucky enough to hook-up with the nice 5Zigens that ODL has but if not I want to be able to move right away. So far I know that although everyone loves the VOLK TE-37 there not for me. I'd like to keep the price between $800-1000 for the set of rims alone. Any suggestions? Also if you happen to have pics of any of the rims on either 5th gens or white cars link that as well.

So much stuff so little money!! Can someone please tell me when all this ends????

Nah..I want something that has more of an offset then those. I'm thinking of bewteen 42-45mm on a 7' wide and 44-48mm on a 7.5" rim. I just want to be safe

Trust me I thought about your rims long and hard.

Not bad but how are TR rims? Do you happen to have a site for them? I can only find them on other sites.

The problem, I think, with white wheels is that they're not going to match premium white and will look strange. I've only seen it done with something like championship white which is easy to match.

I agree....I'm afraid that white won't look right on our color cars. So far I really like the RH Evo C6000 and C7000 and those prices are right. I like the simple look but I'm still not floored....now if I can find a nice set of SSR's for like $1000 now where talking.....imagine that!!

BTW Gen5 I like those 5Zigens as well...pretty close to the RH's I like.
