I like the Racing Hart Z5000s(18-19"), Oz Superlaggers(18") very light weight and good looking. You can always get Lowenhart BR5s.....if money doesn't matter!!!!!!

I highly recommend my polished Volk TE-37s. I've got them on my Red car and i love em. They are 18x7.5 and only weigh about 16 pounds. If you want to see them, click on Sactown Motoring in my sig and go to members and click on Red Rider and see for yourself. Let me know what you think.
P.S. While you're there , check out Hammermans SSR Comps.

Get HRE 540s....But if you don't like alot of spokes, get the HRE 545s.
Both are hella hot.
Damn...I wish money wasn't a problem for me.
I can't even afford to install my a-pillar and Autometer guages.

If he's still interested he should contact Axis Wheels, but I think they only come in 19".

I've noticed nobody has or recommends Centerline wheels. I've got an '03 Anthricite CL-S /Navi and was looking to get some RPMs 18x8 in the black powder coat. I think they look great and would really set off the color of the car. Wanna wrap them in Yokohama AVS ES100 245/40 r 18. Living in Michigan with these pothole laden roads I don't wanna go too thin on the tire. Has anyone tried a tire this size? Does it rub? Any help would be useful.

What? I am looking at a printout on the Centerline RPM Wheel as I type. The 18's are only 7 inches wide it says here. In fact I was going to pass as this seemed too narrow. I think they look nice and at 15+ pounds and forged, looked promising. Local Les Schwab tire dealer quoted $269 per. He also suggested 225 width on tire. 7 inches too narrow for our cars? 45mm offset. Come back.

I could've sworn I read somewhere they come in 18x8. But, looking at Centerline's web page they only list it in a 7" width. Well doesn't that just suck!? Well, I guess I'll keep looking. Thanks for the input...
