Upgrading Rims

[Anna34]

So i want to upgrade them. They are sitting at 15inches... should i upgrade to

17s or 18s?? I cant decide on the style either..

hehehe oooh... that might help aye lol

shhhhhhh im still a newbie at this....

well im looking between $1500-$2000....

if i can find something cheaper that looks good.. then its even better!

But yeah...

Im shopping around

[SoFly]

should check out the for sale section theres a few sets up for grabs.

i'd lean towards 18s.

p.s buy my rims!!! lol

[infamous]

As stated previously, definately 18's.

I have 18's on my white 34, with dish!, and now I want 19's, looks too small with my kit.

Check out the R34 pics in the Photography section, will give you a good idea of what other forum members have on their 34's,.... and you'll definately see n15mo the "wheel whore" pop up numerous times throught the 27 or so pages.. lol.

n15mo; Have you ever tried rehab ?

That's a serious addiction, I've never seen anyone change rims so often,.... and I don't even change my undies until day 4 or 5!!

She's on a budget of $2,000..... don't think she will be getting the LMGT's or the TE37's just yet.

[NA_Goodness]

I'd reccomend the round variety of rims. So much better than those square ones... Hope that helps!

i've got some black 17's that would look good on a white R34, they came off my white R33.

[eddieeeee-ro]

19" fill the wheel arches better on 34s i think.

Both the above wheels are the same make and model - BBS RG-R in Diamond Black.

The GTR is in 19s whereas mine are 18s and different offsets and widths Took me a while to source those from Yahoo Auctions in Japan....and about 3 mths to get here.

If you stretch your budget a little you should be able to get a pretty decent 2nd hand set from forum members...or if you're willing to wait...source them in Japan through the traders.

Can't go wrong with mesh style wheels in my opinion.

I know you only have $2000 max, but please stay away from CheapO rims from bob jayne/ozzy tyres.

I found a mint set of Nismo LMGT3's on the for sale section here for $2,400 with new tyres aswell, had them for a year now.

Japanese build quality, awesome machined lip and a good amount of dish on the back wheel.

I'd rather have the stock 17" r34 wheels than the cheap rims from the tyre shops, but that's just me.

P.S I have 17" rays nismo rims for sale. PM me if you're interested, I'll sell em to ya for cheap.
