Wheels on a budget. POST THEM HERE!!!

Wheels on a budget. POST THEM HERE!!!

Don't know if this has been done but forgive me if this is a repost. Post some budget minded wheels here.

Only rule is it should be under $1000 for the set.

Let's get a thread going for those who want wheels but need to save some cash.

I'll go first. I would rock some Niche Sport or Racing Series Wheels. 17"s start at $160 and 18's at $200. They also do custom colors for an additional $100 a wheel.

Niche Sport Apex M125


Niche Sport Apex M126


Niche Sport Targa M129, M130 and M109


Niche Sport Circuit M108, M109, M110


Niche Sport GT-5 M133


Niche Sport Milan M137 and M139


Niche Racing NR6 M105 and M106


Niche Racing NR10 M122 and M123


Post your choices up!

In first for XXR 527! Each 18x8.75 +35 wheel cost $130.95 after FRSport price matched a discounted XXR pricing promotion going on with NLMotoring (who was out of stock of this particular spec).

(An excuse to post an old pic of my car since I'm on stock wheels ATM hehe)

I have a set of Volks, very affordable for a those in college or on a budget. Didn't feel like spending all that money on a set of Asantis. Everytime I hard park the car, the rims hold up very well, even when that dude took that picture of it.



Meanwhile in the real world, I am probably going to get a set of Rota Titans. Not the lightest wheel, but not to bad at 18lbs. For 729 dollars not to bad looks great too! I am sure they can handle the task of autocrossing and track days just fine, but car shows. . . that might be another deal altogether.

I rock them for DD'ing; DR-38 17x9 +38, lighter than OEM, they've been great so far.

How's this for a cheap setup.... $658 SHIPPED for these wheels and tires!! GT Radial Champiro UHP1 in 245/40R17

This is my street setup. Use the OEM wheels for track.

Love them as well! Debating between this and the Wedsport sa15r. Wedsports double the cost shipped though.

I had to make that same decision, since I wanted the look of Gram Lights. However, I ended up going with the Wedssport SA-15R's (from Jacky @ Vivid) since they're lighter than the stock wheels and I decided I wanted to run the stock tires until they're gone before going stickier.
