Need suggestions on wheels!
Hey guys. Trying to pick out a set of wheels for my DIB 2013 5.0, but I'm really not sure what I want. It's hard for me to picture how something would look on the car without actually seeing it in person.. But I do know I don't want the super popular sve drifts, amr wheels, RTR's, etc.. I want something a bit more unique.

So far I've got Velgen VMB5's on the list..

Any suggestions?

Funny, I was going to suggest those very same wheels. I dig your choice for wanting to go with something different.

I have looked looked at the velgens too. Good choice. I went ahead with supersnake wheels myself but was very close to getting the vmb5's.

What's your budget? Are you wanting staggered or square? 19s or 20s?

My absolute fav set of AFFORDABLE wheels is the Vossen VFS1, but they only come in 20's...



For the high priced set....I drool over the Forgeline GA1Rs.

Vossens as an affordable option...
Wish I had your budget. My affordable option would be AMR wheels at $1200 for wheels and tires (squared) or perhaps something in that price range.

rob remember whichever rims u pick they have to flat-faced due to brembo brakes..cant have "spider legs" aka bending spokes.. having said that, wheels is a matter of taste.. like celin dion songs..i go with this site to select mine 1010tires.com

I'm very much liking my Enkei PF01's... only used as track setup, but if I could another set, I'd drive these daily.

I also like the OEM GT500 wheels (07-09 era) on my car, but the black wheels have really grown on me.

If I have to buy a new set of wheels today, I'd still get these wheels. I just love my wheels.

Those look similar to the wheels that came with my Pony Package. Yours are much cooler though.
