Hey guys i'm looking for rims for my fd. I know what I want but can't find anything within a good price range. I'm looking for 18x8/8.5 and 18x9/9.5 .I'm looking for some recommendations from you guys.

Well my ideal wheels would be any of the HRE 540's series. But theres no way I would be able to afford HRE wheels. I don't really care about the name of the brand or the quality so if anyone knows any replicas of HRE that would be perfect. Basically i'm looking for any mesh or spoke rims that have a pretty big lip. Lip is pretty big deal and I'm looking for maybe a 2-3 inch upfront and a 3+ in rear. I really like BBS but they have absoultly no lip. And I don't want the rims that have the cheating lip(basically the spokes curve foward so its parallel to tire but technically has a big lip). Well there are my picky preferences and any suggestions would be really help me either if they are big brands or no names. I'm looking to spend around $1,000-2,000 on rims without tires. Thanks for the help in advance.

iforged has great replicas of HRE but they are still around $800 each rim. Anyone know any iForged replicas lol?

You can't get wheels with straight spokes and a big lip on an FD -- the offsets are too high. Some of the biggest lip wheels are from Work (they have to curve the spokes though, like anyone else). Contact Rishie at Auto RnD for a forum deal on Work wheels.

I know of one place that you can get some great rims for a decient price.
Here is a link to Takumi Project, with all the wheels they sell that will fit a FD.

Right now they have several sets of volk wheels that are a BBS type mesh for well under $2000. I got my wheels from there, they were really nice and I didnt have to pay any shipping!
