Dude it's your car.. get whatever wheels you feel like it.

But definitely don't ask our opinions! haha

MOST of us are pretty conservative and we generally stick to the german brand wheels or custom-made forged wheels.

So get whatever YOU think looks good and don't ask us for our opinion.. that way, we won't be able to make fun of you

In MY opinion, I think I like these Giovanna Attack 2 rims the best compared to everything else I've considered. (Lorinser LM5, Lowenhart LD1) My question is do you know where I could find these for the lowest price? Thanks

The first set of rim's i don't like because they look very similair to Davin's but it looks like those that you posted don't spin

The second though.. I LOVE THEM! Those would look so nice in a 20 inch configuration all around.

thanks vraa, so far i got a price of 1600 for the rims in a 20" chrome. i am thinking of going with nitto nt555's which cost 900 totaling 2500. i think i still wanna shop around for a better price tho. if you know of any place that can do better i'd appreciate it.

Ahh.....

Don't go for those ghetto, chrome, heavy and flashy wheels, please don't do it!! Look at wheels made by Renntech and HRE, maybe even the Lorinser LM5's although they are a little on the heavy side. Renntech and HRE are AWESOME quality wheels that are lights and look great!

Hey no disrespect to you, and good luck on your wheel search.

Cheers.
