Save me about $400 when order from the 'bay' than in Canada.

That $400 I saved goes directly to my 19-Tires-Rims Saving Bonds.

Something not too crazy, Drag DR-37, like the style, cos the Z is my DD in the summer.

Going to match it with the Continental ExtremeContact DW.

Was thinking about the AvanteGarde M310, but I feel it's too wide for DD, and will cost too much to fit tires on it cos they are 19X11 at the back.

alcheng- get forgestars if you're going to get that kind of wheel.

dont get Drags unless it's for winter snows or something... come on now.

Absolutly. Or even the M310's, they are pretty nice. My Forgestars are 19x11 in the rear but there are smaller widths available if you want to save on rubber

Drags are pretty much for FWD/AWD low-end cars imho and they dont offer the correct size or offset for our cars.

19x8.5 ET20 or ET40
19X9.5 ET20 or ET40

FRONT: i suppose the ET20 could work but it'll probably stick out too far and look too narrow.

REAR: 9.5 is too narrow and ET20 is sunken in...

Im running 295/30 in the rear. The Forgestars are a remarkable value. I got them in a package deal with tires but I believe the wheels were about $1600 ish. ONLY prob w Forgestar is long wait times. Mine took about 8 weeks to be made and shipped. You get to custom pick your offsets and color, which is awesome.

kenchan · 12-19-2011, 05:58 PM

yah, if you're stock height get 19x9 ET32 front, 19x11 ET18 rear.

if lowered something like 19x9 ET25 front, 19x11 ET10 rear maybe? wat do you run, alchemy?

Getting wheels that are lesser quality than what the car came with for the sake of "getting wheels" is a bad use of your money.
