Unhappy

I'm in the market for a new set of rims for my GS400. I dont' know EXACTLY when I will be able to purchase them, but I want to find out what exactly I want!!

I was wondering if anyone could give me some good websites to look at!! I will MOST LIKELY go with 18" and DEFINATLY chromed up!! (I gotta have some flash) I MIGHT go with 19's but that depends on budget and availability... I want a good quality rim that isn't a "KNOCK OFF" but is still within my budget...

Price is a concern. I can't really afford to spend more than like $4000 for rims and tires!! So if anyone wants to point me in the right direction it would help a LOT!!

A few rims I do like are Lowenhart LD-1's, Lowenhart BR-5's, Lowenhart BS-5 Super Crystal... I'm not really into the "racing rims" but I do like SOME of the 2 and 3 piece wheels....

So if anyone can give me a few good websites to check out some nice wheels, I would GREATLY appreciate it. Thank you very much everyone!!

ALL OPINIONS ARE WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

go check out www.HREWHEELS.com they are the best in my opinion. If you contact them ask for Bob. GREAT GUY.

It is true that HRE does cost a bit more, but keep this in mind, EVERY HRE wheel is custom. They make the wheel to the customers spec. There is also an old saying that says "You get what you pay for" As for me I have no problem paying a bit more for the god stuff.

P.S.
DAZZ also will take many of your coins.
