Cheap Driving Wheel Suggestions
What do you guys suggest for a set of wheels that:
a. Clear LS400 Brakes
b. Are conservative offsets so I don't have to stretch tires
c. Don't look too terribly ugly
d. I can drive 1000+ miles on a road trip and not have to worry about massive camber wear or realigning the car.
e. Are cost effective
I can only think of.... Supra TT wheels, G35/350z Wheels, and thats it... Other suggestions, whether its some cheapo cheap wheels, or what are more than welcome. 17's preferred though.

How cheap is cheap? Rota p45r. Can be had for less than 1g new. It will clear big brakes. It has a nice concave design. 18"x 9.5". Different offsets are offered. lowest is +20.

p45r. Ugh, looks ghastly with the stock suspension though. Focus on the style and fitment.
These are probably +20.
MB Battles..Looks good to me.
Motegi touges. Couldn't find one on an sc, but these are pretty cheap and look decent as well.

a. Yes they clear LSBBK
b. Very conservative so no stretched tires at all.
c. I think they are a very nice and simple design. Heck if you want you can paint them whatever color you want to change them up a bit if you don't like the color but the design IMO is just right for the SC.
d. Bolt right up to the car with no alignment or camber issues whatsoever. Plus if you got the connections tires are dirt cheap for these rims.
e. Will run you only 500 with tires included so you will not find anything better that adheres to your above requirements.
On to pics of the ISX50 rims on my car before I stepped up to 20's....

The end all wheels to me are the ISX50 rims.
a. Yes they clear LSBBK
b. Very conservative so no stretched tires at all.

If you liked the rims so much why did you go to 20's? LOL. Sorry man just giving you a hard time because the Yankees suck. I do love the new rims.

Haha....but for real it was time for me to step it up since no one in tampa is rockin the 20's on an SC and I got a great deal for them. Just remember Matt....who is in first place in the american league east????
