I am wondering what wheels I can get that are equivalent to the Nismo wheels in size (19x9.5 front and 19x10.5 rear) and don't weigh a crapload more.
I believe the front Nismo wheels weigh about 20 lbs while the rear weigh closer to 23. Don't quote me on that it's just what I read in another post on here. So far the only ones that I know of that come close are the VMR V710 wheels which I think cost closer to $1k. What else is there? |

tsw nurbs. economical and light and good looking. all you need to add is a 10 or 15mm spacer on the rear.
get 19x9.5 ET32 and 19x10.5 ET27 but why sell your nismo wheels? just use them. |

You could look around for some used wheels, or check out some Enkei wheels. TSW, VMR, Forgestar are also good choices.
We carry TSW, VMR, Forgestar, Volk/Rays, Enkei, Work... And others. Feel free to PM me with any questions or if you need pricing. I can get you a set of VMR wheels for a great price.

I have never heard of VMR wheels before, but they look exactly like the Avant Garde M310's that I like. They are a bit cheaper and I can get them in gun metal without paying $200 for custom powdercoating. Sound perfect to me. Just wondering how the quality is for VMR wheels and what the weights are.

Also, it seems like the AG M310s are a bit stronger than the VMRs because of the way they are made (low pressure cast for AG vs gravity cast for VMR). |

with that amount I'm pretty sure you can find a set of used volks that are in good condition.

My AME TMO2's cost that about a year ago. Not sure if there higher now. Might take a few months to get. They come in the size your looking for but only in +22 offset. So I run a 10mm spacer in the rear. My wheels don't weigh no more than 22lbs.
