Advice on rims!
To start off, this is my first post. My name is Ryan and I will be buying a lexus gs300 soon. Anyway, im looking to get a nice set of rims, most likely 18 inch. I am looking for some deep dish rims. I really like the look of deep dish rims however being the poor college student I am, i need something cheaper. It would be nice if the rims were about $160 or less each. The pics below are of some rims that i like (most likely cant afford though lol). Do you guys and gals have any suggestions? I would prefer if they were black spokes and chrome lip or all black or all chrome. thanks! I also really like the rims that Rob Daddy posted.

Lol I know! I'm going to have the car looked over thoroughly by a friend of mine. I'm going to be getting one with low mileage as well (I know that doesn't mean that nothing's wrong) I'm going to get some tein coilovers as well. Right now I'm just searching for some rims that are going to break my bank. Do you guys have any suggestions?

Just save till you can get the right ones for you the first time. $1,500 give or take $100 is a good place with a lot of options. I've bought cheap rims on other cars in the past ... Like $800 w tires on some wack brand 20" and they ended up costing me almost as much in repairs to the rotors/breaks/studs.
Dont be like young me... Just save and wait. You said u need them $160 cheaper each. Give yourself a six month window to save an extra $106 per month or $53 per check and your right where you wanna be.

They have helped by stating opinions like you asked for. I also agree, dont go cheap on wheels. Just keep them stock until you save up some moolah and get the ones your really want. Id say 1200-1800 is a good range for some decent used wheels with nice offsets and sizes. But first things first... got to buy a car lol be patient and pick one up for a good deal so you can spend money on goodies.
