Finally fed up with cleaning the stock rims, but I know a big fat zero about wheels.

Offset, lug pattern, etc is too much for me. Is there a tutorial?

Plus websites tend to have small selections so I'm forced to search dozens for something that MAY work.

Looking for the following, in order of preference:
1. (must have) Absolutely bone stock dimensions. No spacers, no suspension adjustments, no BS.
2. Five spoke preferred (or anything easier to clean)
3. Quality/durability preferred over weight savings / looks
4. Heard Ray's is the best, willing to consider other manufacturers.

Any suggestions?

 

^^^^Looking at your requirements, I would recommend stock early RCF wheels. I have these mounted on my ISF. IMHO, the look great, are easy to clean and are also BBS forged, Dimensions exactly the same as your wheels. don't know the color of your GSF, but IMHO they look best on a silver car.

 

 

Know nothing about Zito wheels, except they are Flow Formed. A Flow Formed wheel is stronger than a Cast wheel, but a Forged wheel is stronger than a Flow Formed wheel.

Doubt if you'll find an aftermarket wheel with the same dimensions as a stock wheel.

Thanks for your replies. Still debating what to do.

 

If i were you , I would nano ceramic coat my wheels and brakes. And you're good to go with cleaning them

 

 

Prob gonna stick w stock. Sounds like a lot of hassle,

 

Only cause you asked members for opinions. Otherwise, a personal research and a unilateral decision isn't difficult. LOL

 

An acquaintance suggested custom wheels can built to size. Any thoughts?

 

Have you tried Lumarai wheels?

 

You wanted good looking wheels that were easy to clean, would fit and had stock dimensions. I gave you the answer. Then you came back with - "Sounds like a lot of hassle". You think custom wheels would be less hassle

I'm having trouble understanding where you're coming from

I am strongly considering your suggestion. Didn't mean to imply YOUR suggestion was hassle. Just want to flesh out all options.

 

I too have the challenge of keeping my stock wheels clean, but I just love the way the stock wheels look on my car. I am seriously considering allowing the dealer to change out my original pads for the lower friction replacement pads, meant to eliminate brake squeal. I've heard that a side benefit would be reduced brake dust and less frequent cleaning.

I hope this helps.
Thanks

 

Dealer replaced original pads with low noise/friction pads - check
Dusts infinitely less - check
Happy - check

Good luck!
