Default Best rims & tires for under 800 shipped combo

Hey guys. Looking to buy me some new rims and tires.......... I was thinking about some of the following.

Rota Auto X- Either black or white with red lip
Drag DR9 Gold w/ Polished Lip
Drag DR20 Gold w/ Polished Lip
Rota Circuit 8's- White - gold- bronze
Rota Slipstreams (same colors as the circuit 8's)

I would like to buy some NEW with tires.. Around 800 or so shipped. a little more or a lot less.

And before anyone says "Neither, they're all FAKE wheel's" I know this but I dont really care. And I want NEW with NEW tires and dont wanna empty my whole damn wallet...

Here is the car they will go on.

The car is already slammed beleive it or not.. I just took that funky pic at a weird angle. The car is really hard to get in and out of haha..

Anyways. There is a local guy selling some auto x's and i've been talking to him about them for 2 days trying to arrange a time to meet up. And now he wont text back or return calls or answer either.


Does anyone have any good sites or anything to purchase new wheels for a not too bad price?

i think ive searched a few times for different wheels and Discount Tires is usually where i buy cheap wheels from (discounttire.com). they are usually a few dollars cheaper than other websites. they sometimes have some kind of deal going on where they might seem expensive but after the "deal" they end up being cheaper. shop around and compare prices to this website

Absolutely NO DRAGS...they are garbage, ugly, and look like pure sh*t. At least Rota's are a fairly accurate knock off.

Kosei k1's are 700 shipped with new tires
5zigens are sometimes on sale for 899 with tires shipped

I'd buy kosei's...good wheel, not a knockoff, track proven, good look, light and a respectable wheel. That's how I got away from Rota's.

Actually, I have them on my delsol with PIC coilovers. Everyone loves the car.

I second the Kosei's. Functional wheel and great price for what it is.

Whos going to sig 98civdx's post?? I wanna sig it..




But my choice would be some silver slips wrapped in Falken Azenis 195/55/15. 55's since your car is NOT slammed.
