Default Where to buy wheels and wheel advice - Advan, Volk, etc

Hi all after performing a search I was unable to find much information about where people purchase the wheels that they have, other than scouring the marketplace.

I am interested in 15 and 16 inch only and preferably by 7 or 7.5" and 5x114.3.
Wheel choice:
- Advan RG
- Volk RE30
- Volk TE37
- Volk SE37

My questions are:

1. Where would you look to purchase these wheels that have convenient pricing and selection? (ie websites, distributors?)

- Please don't give me links to the manufacturers as half the time they do not show 16" rims (only mostly 18",19"), no pricing and ordering method, yet in the ITR photo galleries I see the above wheels

2. What offset should I run if I want a flush clean look for my ITR?

Thanks in Advance

i wouldnt even go to the sponsor forums anymore. I got ripped off 2 grand on re30s that i never received and there was plenty other people in the same boat as me. Guy's name was dave pittman, sn was fast4dr (now banned), and he lives somewhere in south carolina. If anyone sees him, please put 2 in his chest and one his face.

Edit: Volks are sent in through mackin industries, so any place that has mackin as a distributor can help u out, even custom colors and offsets i believe.

Are you looking for new or used?, you have two wheels that are discontinued in your list.
I can set you up with a good company for used wheels.
What city you in ?

Thanks everyone for your responses, preferrably new over used, not in the market to buy new rims until the spring, so no need to hook me up with numbers but it is appreciated.

Also what offset should I be looking at +45, +48? or something.
Do the Advan RG's 16" come in 5x114.3, have not seen one yet.

Welcome to Honda-tech bud

if you're serious about buying a set, i can ask David for you at Evogarage regarding Volks/Advan (both distributed through Mackin).

Offset for a 16" on an ITR, i would say +42 for the Volks.

And yes, the Advan RG came in 5-lug in 15" and 16" sizes. offsets weren't that great though as i recall the 16" being 16x7.5, +45? i may be wrong though on that size wheel.

Thanks J, I really shouldn't need to consult Honda-tech when you do all the research anyways hahaha. Just buy you more coffee!

Not serious till around Spring, you know me and planning every move. I will keep my comments about ordering through Evogarage private, call you later to chat.

I always go to GT Motoring on my first try, then look somewhere else if they can't get it.
