Default new rims

really interested in buying new rims but dont know what to get and i dont want to spend alot of money. i love how the alcoa rims look on the super snake but i dont want to spend 4000 dollars on them without tires. anyone know a cheaper rim that is decent in quality and much much less expensive. i want a 19-20" rim and 10" wide. these are what the alcoa rims looks like.

those would be a little over 2 grand for a set, where are you getting 4 grand from?

there are plenty of affordable wheel choices out there - even the oem brembo wheel design is similar to those. there's also a track pack wheel that is similar in a black finish.

browse americanmuscle's wheel selection - they have a lot of good wheels to pick from.

The Alcoas are extremely nice...I had a set on my previous 2008 GT500.....but there are definitely other rims out there that are just as nice, if not nicer, and more affordable.

Another thing to consider is that the Alcoas are getting harder to come by, so if something ever happens to one of the rims, and it cannot be fixed, you could be out the entire set.

Good Luck!

Have you priced 20 inch tires lately? Not something for someone that doesn't want to spend a lot of money.
