Default Selection of rims I can buy for 130/ea. (plus or minus)

Well, I've been doing some serious research on wheels for my car and now I'm just trying to decide. My problem is that I think I have not found all wheels I can find for my car. I am looking at a price range of about 130 +/- and I know that the 15" Kosei K-1's would fit the bill perfectly.

Can someone tell me of my other choices in a 15" size (these will be used for street/track) that is around that price.

Also, can somebody suggest where I can find the rim you suggest at a great price. Bear in mind that I am a bargainer and I will press the seller down to the bone with price

Thanks


PS

Once again, I know I dont own an R, I just need as many responses as possible becuse I'm going to be buying my wheels pretty soon.

Kanji,
I'm currently looking to buy new wheels for my 01 ITR, and I've done lots of research. If you go to tirerack.com, you can do a wheel search by make and model. It will show you exactly what wheels will fit on your car. I am also looking at the 15" Kosei wheels, they seem to be the best bargain, not only in price but weight too (they are the second lightest wheel, 13.5 pounds and $139 per wheel). Compare that with the the lightest wheel for the ITR (and probably GSR too) the SSR Competition, ~9 pounds, but they cost $309 per wheel, a huge difference. I just got a quote from tire rack, the 15" Kosei wheels and Yokohama AO32 competition tires, 205x50x15, mounted, balanced and delivered to my front door (eastern PA) for $1155.00. Not bad at all. The same package for the SSR's would come to $1875.00. Check it out and let me know what you finally decide on.

I have a set of 15 inch UKDM wheels in white that I currently use. They are each a few pounds lighter than the USDM's and lok like the JDM's....but since they are the same size as the USDM's, you can legally use them at autocrosses! And they are official Honda parts!

If anyone is interested in a set of these wheels, email me. I know where one or possibly 2 whole sets of 4 wheels can be found. Not sure on the exact prices though....you'll have to talk to the sellers for that...

Cheese~

I may be interested in getting some UKDM wheels in gunmetal.

Does any one know where to get them or a rough estimate on price?

The ones I currently know about are all white in color. But lanceh on this board has a set of gunmetal UKDM's...if you offer him really large sums of money, I think he could be persuaded to sell them to you.
