I know everyone has seen this kind of thread before - Wheels good or bad?

[Ronin 09]

I'm need new tyres and thought, what the hell i'll invest in some rims too. Now i want something light and japanese, preferably bronze and not too pricy. 18x8 and 18x9, 235/40's and 265/40's. So far the leading contender is these Black Racings.

I like the Buddy Club P1 Racings, but they don't come in 18's... and the Buddy Club P2's are about 1200 a rim!. I've got a silver R33 (like everyone else!) what do people think?

Any other suggestions? I want to keep it under $4K

Dont know your budget (if it includes rubber) but I have also been looking at the Buddy Club P1 Series 2 rims and have been quoted $820 for 18x10's at Hypertech.

They're nice wheels, but i think they are more suited to say a R32, or 180sx... You tend to see them more on those sorts of cars. I'm not sure how well they would suit a 33 gts-t...just my thoughts anyhow.

I reckon the wheels look shit hot mate. PM me with price, details and where to get em if you can be bothered.

Those Black Racing wheels looks sick. I was thinking of getting them when I purchased my wheels. Especially the bronze ones. But how light are they compare to the P1s??

Is there a big difference between the 18 inches and the 17 inches? Like beside the looks and the size, 18 inches rubbers is going to cost you more and I got told 17 inches can make accelation a bit quicker.

Damn I can't believe P1 Racing II drop so much in price!! I should of waited a bit longer!!

Either ways I think the B/Racing and the P1s looks good. Have you seen what B/Racing rims will look like on a R33? I think the B/Racing looks a bit like the Buddy Club P1 QF.

just brought chrome DTM's five spoke design. 18s and can fit 265 on the back. bolt straight on to gtst without any messy spacers and such. nice wheels, cost $2300 with new tyres. not sure on the weight though..

Yeah I've seen em on a black S15. Very nice wheels. Nice choice.

Here is contender number 2, but they are a bit pricy. These are the ones i really want but the cost is a bit of a factor... they are Buddy Club P1 Racing II's

Inark, skylineakt, thanks for the links.

I think that if the price is right, I will go for the Buddy Club P1 II's. Snowman, how long ago was that you were quoted for them? And where is hypertech?
