Red face NEED 18" or 19" GOLD STAGGERED RIMS FOR MY 8.

Hello Forum Members,

I have now 4 month with my 8 and is time for me to make it stand out form the crowed. Ive been looking for some 19" Gold Staggered Rims for the past month with no luck. I am willing to put a set of 18" if they are really nice but like i said before i prefer 19"s.

By the way i know there is a member here named KANE that has some GOLD Rims on his 8, i wouldn't mind those rims but i just haven't been able to speak to him to ask him what kind of rims he has. I will really appreciated if you guy's could help me out with this 1.

Also if you guys have pics of your 8's with Gold rims please by all means post them up. Will love to see how ya 8's looks with them.

Thanks in Advance.

I would recommend looking through all the "Calling all _____ wheels" threads.
There are such threads for Volks, Advans, Works, etc etc
That's a good place to see pictures of member's cars and usually they will post what size.

you should find those all in the wheels subforum

Shitt !!!!!! Patric_ks Car looks beautiful. What rims are those and size?? And price? By the way as far as Price goes, Im not looking to spend more than $1600 at the moment because i am purchasing everything at once. Body kit (R-Speed Kit ), full exhaust kit( Agency Power), Cold Air Intake (AEM ) etc.

Also, i looked at a couple of the threads on here ((one of them being "Calling All Bronze/Gold Wheel Owners" )) but i just didn't find anything close to what i have in mind, there were some nice ones here and there but the size of those rims they had looked too small.

Really? You want gold rims on a NG? Id go with bronze but thats just my opinion.

You should really give us an idea what kind of rim you want. 5 spoke, 7 spoke, mesh, split spoke, etc

As far as what kind of rims Im looking for, i really don't care if they are 5 spoke, 7 spoke, mesh, split spoke etc. As long as they look good on an 8 in the color gold and they are at least 18".

then just as jedi suggested start looking around on this forum for something that you might like and when you find something contact that member and ask him/her about them. Most everyone on here will be more than willing to talk to you about their setup

And your price range? I could give you wheels that are $250 ea or $1250 ea

Also, would you be willing to powdercoat wheels when you got them? ie usually the cheaper wheels dont come in gold so you would have to powdercoat them yourself ($50-$100 ea)

Yeah, i dont care to pay a little extra to get the results im looking for. So if i have to Powdercoat them i will. Like the most i am willing to pay right now is.............. streaching some bills here and there............ il say $1900 for the 4 set of wheels for now but if i cant find anything better than those Volks sf i will pay the price for them im just going to have to wait a month and a half to get them. which sucks cux im drving my 8 to NY next month and i wanted to take it fully loaded but thats just a want, right now is what i need. So yeah show me some of those rims your talking about Ross.

For $1600 you could get some nice Work Emotion CR Kai's in Bronze. I know it's not gold but it'll look good.

actually for 1600 dollars I would buy Rota P45R (18x9.5) for about 200-225 each and a nice set of tires to go along with them

I know they are not 19's but they would look great
