Wheels under $2.5k that are not heavy

What do you all think of these? I really like them but just realized the black color comes only in 19x10 and 19x8.5.... So if I got them I guess

So if I got them I guess I would have to just get 19x10 all around and just have a staggered tire setup? Idk. I think I would also need some spacers for these as the offset is +22


These are RP03's btw

wow, you really think these Enkie's are a better rim than the factory nismo's?

hell they dont even look that good, granted thats my opinion.

Yeah I think I may have changed my mind. I liked them at first but the more I look at them the more I change my mind lol.

Yeah I am definitely going to sell the stock wheels if/when I get new ones. It will probably be soon because I will need new tires soon anyway. Let me know if you are interested

FWIW: The Nismo wheels are forged and from a top end manufacturer (Rays who also makes Volks) if you want to replace your factory wheels for looks that is fine, but I would not want to downgrade wheels just for the looks. With that said there are several quality wheels that you can get. TSW Nurburings, Forgestar F14's, Used Volks, Weds Sport SA55's, used SSR's, ect. Another option would be to powder coat your factory Nismo wheels to change up the overall look as well.
