Rim Suggestions?

Hey guys, I plan on dropping my car on Tien SS Coilovers.

Just wondering some rim suggestions other then Vossens.

Budget would be under 3 grand. Looking for 19's or 20's. Leaning more towards 19's.

I really like the CV3's but was leaning more toward a forged rim over cast (Potmilkz had a lot to say about this which was also a good laugh)

Looking for Rim company suggestions basically.

Any suggestions would be appreciated I've been searching through this forum for 2 hours and couldn't find anything.

actually you are in canada, kinda hard to get a set of forged wheels brand new considering everything cost more over there.. even shipping from US, customs charges will cost a bit.

for forged, to me it doesnt matter, 90% of the time the face of the wheel are untouched.. if the lip is scratched, it cost about 150 to replace the lip and you can make it the size you want.

But if you want to fork out 3000+ for a set, then you can, i like to customize.

Why don't you ask the shops for suggestions? They would know a heck of a lot more than we do as they are in the business. Under 3K for a new set of forged wheels is almost impossible to find unless it's a private sale. And are you talking Canadian money or US?
