Recommendations for Sunlight Silver 8

I'm just taking in suggestions for getting wheels on my 8. I'm pretty set with wanting to go with 19's, but I want to know everyones opinions and suggestions.

I really like the Volk Racing Challenge RMS rims. I love the look of the 5 spoke wheels, do not like the look of all of the spokes. I would prefer something chromed, yet clean. I know the 8 is not an SUV and I don't want chrome all over, but I think it matches well with the color of the car.

So like I said, simple and clean.

The cheaper the better, however, I want quality wheels/tires for my 8, so I know I'm going to have to shell out some money. If we could keep it below $2000, that would be great.

Below 2000... hmmm... You might be able to pull off some used 19" Volk for that, with no tires. Tires will cost you extra. Even 19" Racing Harts will cost you more than 2000 just for the rims.

Maybe try Motegi? Stern?

Here is my set-up!

Here is the set-up I went with. They are ADR 18X8.5 in the front and 18X9.5 in the rear. I got 245/18/40 in the front and 265/18/35 in the rear...Excellent fit and the rims match up perfectly with the fender!

Enjoy...
