Default New Wheels

So I am trying to find some new wheels for my Sebring Silver... I am having a hard time deciding on a set. I really don't want run of the mill wheels i.e. RPF1s lol Want something a little more exotic and eye popping! Any help/suggestions would be great!

Ha big baller talkin. Seriously there's thousands of different wheels to choose from. Decide on the size and offset you like and start shopping. You can get nice wheels from Konig, Rota, TSW, Volk, Work, Enkei, Drag, Weds, etc. Also get over the whole if there not volk's there shit mentality. Unless your a professional race driver, which none of us are, there is about squat difference in a 100 wheel versus a 600 wheel other than a few pounds of weight and the name of the company who made it. Besides in the real world wheels get bent, scratched, stained, curbed, etc. Styles change rapidly as well. You can get four sets of nice wheels for the price of one of the "jdm" wheels. Unless its a show car, theres no point in dropping that kind of cash for wheels unless you just want to. Which is fine as well. Point is, there's a million options. I've had about 6 defferent sets in everything from 16's to 19's. They all drove pretty much the same. Finally went back to custom finished stock wheels. Just can't beat factory quality.

LOVE my PF01

I weighed my old wheels with tires and new wheels with 10mm wider rubber
nearly the same weight as AP2V1 and used rubber vs new wide rubber

Look around on the classifieds here. There are always a ton of nice wheels for sale, at a much lower price than new. That's how I got my volks.
