    I'm a fan of those Foose DF5s (the first ones), followed by the last ones...Paragon or whatever they are.
    Don't like the Katana ZR5s, but apart from that I think you have pretty similar taste in wheels to me.

    What size are you looking at getting? I assume 19-20s?

    Andyman is selling his rims, in a similar style to all those:

    Good deal if you ask me, they look like they are in as-new condition.

    18" is a great size for these cars, because they are big enough to look good, and small enough that you don't get raped when you have to put new tyres on .

    Those look good too.
    I like 18"s on mine where I pay for tyres and 19-20s on others where I can just admire...

    Thats another option im looking at beforehand aswell,is the price of tyres for each size.At the moment i pay anywhere between $250 - $350 per tyre.Appreciate the feedback : )

    hey mate, to get a tyres in 19' inch size your still looking at something like a nexen n1000, to get a bridgestone adrenalin is $470 odd, i think to get a tyre in 19's youd be struggling to get a uni-directional tyre for less than $350 in a somewhat reasonable brand

    those tyres on my 18's for sale would have to be the best you can get for the price (about 220-230), in terms of comfort, handling, braking etc,

    Cheers m8, I got to see a m8 on the weekend who works for a tyre shop about some other prices he can do but will definately keep yours in mind aswell, thnx heaps for the reply.Im not a fan of bridgestones meself, i had them before on my VT and found em so noisy on the road but as far as wear n tear went they were good.
