Need Rim advice/opinion
Guys,
I've been going back and forth on what rims to get. I have the style that I'm looking for so I just need your guys opinion on what I should get. I have attached 4 rim styles that I want but cant afford the 2 out of the 4 because it will cost me an arm and a leg. If you look at the pics its the Volk and Piaa Super Rozza I cant afford. However, I did some research on rim style similar to these and found the Axis Matrix and R1 Racing. I must say they come pretty darn close IMO. I'm looking for a 19x8.5 rim size and here is the break down of how much these rims cost:
Volk GTV: $685 per rim
Piaa Super Rozza: $560 per rim
Axis Matrix: $340 per rim
R1 Racing: $317 per rim
If you guys know of any rims with this kind of style please let me know. Any input is appreciated. I have a Nordic Green as my car color in case you are wondering

pfft.
volk gtv> all the other wheels you posted.
but if you can't afford the rozza's or the volks
the axis matrix's are very nice too. If you study the look of the R1's versus the axis's wheels - the axis wheels resemble a combination of the volk gtv's(because of the lipped spokes) and rozzas (because of the rivets) while the R1's resemble the rozza's.
IMO: Axis Matrix
but in regards to specs - why are you only going 8.5? why not 9" or 9.5"? Price?

Honestly, take your time on wheels. If you rush it, you will get wheels you didn't want. These are my 2nd pair because I was in such a rush to get some wheels.
