Ok, I've realized the error of my ways

Since becoming an "enthusiast" on this forum, I've noticed myself moving in the direction of downsizing my rim-tire package. I don't know if I'm the first person this amazing transformation has happened to, but somehow I feel the need. Living in south Florida it's either big shiny rims /or smaller, well-fitted silver or hypersilver rims on expensive sportscars. I'm looking for a lower, more aggressive stance. I tried to research it all, but I figured "why not ask those who have been down this road". I definately want to go 19". I'd like to go as wide as possible on the rears. And a good offset range. Any help would be appreciated. Examples welcomed.

If you put the word "rimz" somewhere in the title of your post a thousand people will respond, guaranteed.

HAHAHA

Well this guy needs to be more specific....he kinda said "I want chocolate" and as we all know..there's different styles, brands, not to mention tires are another poke n' prod.

All I can say is go with a good FORGED wheel brand.....a few have been named but here's a few:

MOZ, Antera, Asanti, I-Forged, Dazz, and Lexani. Great thing that has been spoken is that the forged rims are more lightweight than an alloy rim so it means less struggle for the car to burn that rubber. Which would most likely mean Forged rims will give you better performance.

Let us know what us you'd like to know.....

Sounds like this is your wheels...

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/19-Ferrari-360-355-Silver-Competiton-3pc-Style-Rims_W0QQitemZ320343306602QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMotor s_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories?hash=item32034330660 2&_trksid=p3911.c0.m14&_trkparms=72%3A727|66%3A4|65%3A12|39%3A1|240%3A131 8

Aggressive, 19"s, stands out from the factory Jag wheels look, great fitment with the bonus of a staggard stance and the lack of that dirty south gody look..


I almost got them from another ebay store but I couldn't find the store. I think they switched things up and this still may be the same people. A few other members here have them as well. Zintkala has similar ones but chrome.

Those are nice looking wheels for $600. Not my style, but nice none-the-less.
