Im in the market for new rims for my '04 TL, 6MT, SSM, Aspec kit with rear spoiler.

I would like a set with a nice polished lip.

Problem is I can't find much that are 17x8..... I know I know.. u guys are going to say get 18's... But I would like to see what my options are for 17"...

Help me fine rims for my SSM, 6MT.. THANKS!!!

 

I was gonna say get 19's, but anyway.
The deepest lip that clears Brembos you would get with Ronjon Devotions, but they only come in either 18 or 19.
Or if you ins20ist on 17's you could go with these

or these

or these

They will be expensive though

 

Everyone is going big but I wanted to stay with 17" for simple reasons-they cost less(rim/tire), they are lighter and stronger, etc. Look up SSR GT-7 rims in grey or silver on tirerack.com They fit 6MT, are on sale $239 cause they are being discontinued, semi-forged, and lightweight with a polished lip. I wanted to get them for my AT myself but got an even lighter forged Montegi's with General UHP's (35lb total weight, the stock 17" set up is 50lb) instead for a little more. I do feel for you MT drivers though, the choice of 17 for you is limited cause of the Brembos. Hope you'd find the right set up for you. Good luck!

 

I have a friend that's selling his 19" Axis Mod. Black with polished lip. PM me if you're interested. I have to check with him to see if it fits on the 6MT

 

Nice looking 17x8s are hard to find in the right offset but there are some out there. Why don't you just get your stock 17s chromed? You can get an exchange deal on ebay for around $450. I have the stock chromes on my 06 TL. I'm going to a wider tire, 255/40/17, when I wear out my stock tires.

 

do you have pics of your car with the chromed stock rims?
