im looking for new rims on the G, this time no chrome really likeing works little cheeper then volks. Do you guys know any sites which sells then a little cheeper? Im looking at these now but 735$ is little to much withouttires imo. im willing to spend 2500-3K for rim/tire package. Maybe buy luck i run into some 1 parting out on evom still debateing aganist 18z or 19z.

thanks ill check those 2 sites out..anybody know how rota wheels are? I really like those works, but i cant justify paying 3K just for rims without tires which prob ne about 750-800. Hopefully i find a deal or any wheel which looks simular to above and little cheeper. any other brands you guys suggest i look into?

BINGO!!!! Found them $1695 Slightly Used look clean no scuffs or anything, downside their gold, but ill paint them, also not 19's but 18's. After thinking and realizing i drive the 8g to much to maintained 19's. I rater just be safe then sorry. And the offsets are different for the front/Rear, that shouldn't cause a problem should it?

18x8+38 114.3
18x8+26 114.3

26mm is excessively low for our cars. At stock height it may be ok, but dropped if will rub like crazy. Its all up to your desires, but the lowest I'd go is a +35mm offset.

only reason why i thought the 26 might work, is i seen a evo guy put 28 on his 17x9 to clear his brembros. ill search around to see if anyone tgc/club3g ran that low or else im back to square 1

im at 18x8 +38 all around. But I also have molded sides and rear w. enough FG/Bondo on the rear to make my rear wheels flush. w/o that, it would stick out...

Im not sure if +26 would work. It may be not. At worst you would have to camber the rear like -2 or -3 when its low, as not to rub...

+26 wont work...i have some backup rims that are either +34 or +31 and they stick out around an inch...i felt like i was rollin on daytons for a minute. my Zigens are +38 and they are pretty flush as it is.

oh yeah...check Gram Lights...they are practically entry level Volks in my opinion. SSR makes good rims...i dont know how they are now because the went bankrupt a few years back but if you find some older rims...they are solid...i personally like the SSR GP-0 evolutions

http://i14.photobucket.com/albums/a331/dronesurfboards/ssr_gp-0evolution.jpg

or the SSR D5R

or the Gram Light 57 Pro

or the Gram Light 57f Pro

they are discontinues but check ebay sometimes...someone is bound to let them go for around 1k-1.5k. too bad you werent looking for 17's...i just let go of my SSR GP-0 originals for 400. I regret it now too cuz i saw some 18's with the face painted gold and they were SICK!
