Default G-Games Wheels

I just picked up my 05 berlina black about 2 months ago and I'm looking to change my wheels. I fell in love with the O.Z. Galileos at TireRack

http://www.ozracing.com/oz2005/index.php?l...otto&wcard=5003

I just don't want to spend 2800 on rims and another 1000 or better on tires. Any suggestions on some mid ranged 18 inch rims? I'm looking for something in the 200-300 per wheel range and hopefully 9 - 9.5 inches wide in back. Anyone running any G-Games rims? I understand these are made by Rays and am curious how reliable/heavy/etc. they are.

Thanks for any input. If I can't find anything...I might just have to wait and spend the 3800 to get the O.Z.'s...

Remember, you buy cheap, you get real cheap. If you like these wheels, save until you can get them. You can always sell more expensive wheels for more of their original value than cheap rims.


OZ quality is amazing, so dont settle for something less.

The first rule in tuning/modifiying/hot-rodding:
Anything worth doing, is worth doing right.

Research is your friend. All these people saying how you dont get a good quality rim without spending lots of $ are full of it. You can get plenty of quality/ light rims fairly inexpensively you just have to know what to look for. So do some research and dont just jump on the bandwagon!

BTW i know someones going to give me flack about this comment, so check out Team Dynamics Racing. Quality rims, light, and inexpensive. They are used in WRC, USTCC, And many other touring car racers around the world. unfortunately they dont have much available for the S.
