    what you guys think

    I'm about to give up on finding those chrome gst wheels and stay within the budget so I found another DSM wheel that i like and I photoshopped it onto my G to see what it looks like. The wheels in the pic are actually black.

    Im going to put a red pinstripe around the lip.




    I like them. But I want to get some opinions.

    Im still waiting to find out if they will fit over the gsx 2-pots and if they do I will buy them. reasons Im going a smaller wheels is just plain and simple price. one day when I go EVO brembo I'll be back on 17's maybe even MR BBS wheels. But for now, 16's is my goal

    I've seen a beige galant slammed on those, they were black, they looked dope. If you are gonna shoot for the time attack look though, with the red stripe, I'd go with the gst wheels. Or better yet, I can sell you some 3 G wheels cheap.

    yeah tires are expensive for the 17's range. lol. I will go back to 17's when I go EVO Brembos but for next season I'm going to rock 16's cuz I can get a set of Falken Azenis RT-615's for less than 100 a tire. And with how much tires Im going to go through with track days I cant afford buying 17" tires yet. lol

    17" tires can be had for under $100 i actually just baught a new set for my ix wheels im using for winter, i ended up paying 420 for the set mounted and balanced. theyre not the nittos i have on my zigens but they get the job done just as well lol, and if your gouing through tires soo much at this point now i would look into a slightl cheaper tire then what your using currently for whatever price your getting them at

    thing is, Im not just daily driving the tires, I autox on them. And next season im hoping to get some track time with the Galant. So I really cant skimp on quality at all. The only way I can relieve some of the costs without sacrificing functionality is going a smaller size wheel. As I said when I start to make a little bit more money Im going to run the EVO Brembos and go back to 17's.

    Thanks for the input fatal1 I really appreciate it.
