Default Suggested Wheel Brands?

Looking to buy new wheels and I've done some research already. Obviously there are many brands to choose from. After looking I've realized there are different ways of construction, material use, weight, pricing, etc, etc.

Looking for input on what people have found they liked....based on quality and durable construction, performance, and light weight? Price is in the mix but for the sake of argument I am going to say not to include it.

Looking to get 19x9 in front and 19x10 in rear. I won't be racing the car but will be using it in a very spirited fashion...not a daily driver.


Thanks.

I continue to be happy with my American Muscle AMR package. My car is street driven in the summer only so I can't tell you much about track usage or snow ice and road salt. They are well balanced and look great. You said not to be concerned about price but for a mounted and balanced wheel and tire package with TPMS installed for less that $1500 shipped to your door you can't go wrong.

Hope this helps.

Vossen, RTR, or Forgestar are good options to look into.

I really love my GodSpeed wheels. They are lightweight and excellent looking!

I have had AMR drifts, SVE drifts and now TSW drifts, all are great wheels, the AMRs and SVEs are about 1/3 the cost of the TSW's

ACE wheels let you get 19x10 on all four, rotation friendly and 285s all around. PM jayman33 for details and pricing.

Thanks everyone. After doing my research and listening to everyones opinions Ive decided to purchase the Forgestars. It looks like these are quality, light weight wheels.

Good choice OP, Forgestars are on my list as well. I'm waiting to see some pics of the CF5V on a Stang, American Muscle just started carrying them not too long ago and they look AMAZING...
