need help finding wheels..

[zmw]

I know all the ID3 links and all the standards... looking for something as follows

20 or 22 is okay, staggered fitment preferred but definitely no smaller than the 20x9 stock if staggered is not avail.

I want a mesh type wheel or deep multi spoke (i.e. http://www.kmcwheels.com/html_pages/passcar.html - 3rd row down in the middle)

I also would like to see a reasonable price. The ID3 wheels are dead sexy, but they seem to be fairly common for folks here and are also very pricey. These are my fall back wheels of choice.

Think tuner/classy rather than blingy - I'm not a chrome kind of guy, i'm not a spinnaz' kind of guy...

I would even consider a deep 5 spoke like the one in the link above, 1st row, middle...

I would PREFER a black wheel, just not sure how it will look on my silver steel.

TireRack is no help, all they list is complete crap, and something i would expect to see come out of pimp my ride.

the deep dish five spokes you referred to in the pic are kmc jacks and five. there is actually a set on here for 22s for $900. Maybe you should check them out.

You can see them here-

honestly, i can buy them new for less than that.... wel after tax it'd be about 970$ w/o tires... I can't decide if i like those or not, it definitely makes the vehicle look much meaner rather than classier...

actually i need to take that back... I can buy the 20" version for about 820$, not staggered though and it appears to only be a 20x8.5, the 22s are about 1100$ - So I apologize...

no one else has any recomendations? I've seen a deep blue car (not sure of the color name) with some color matched deep blue wheels, i just can't remember who's car it was...

bet your thinkin simans82. and he has kmc dimes.

i like the KMC dimes much more than the jacks. i think 5 spokes are VERY difficult to pull off on our cars, and i LOVE 5 spoke wheels. every single one of my previous cars has been a 5 spoke wheel, its just a classic design. but the size and the lines of our car, IMO it just doesnt look right with most 5 spokes. there are definitley exceptions, but for example because of the aggressive lines and face of the Charger, that will take well to 5 spokes, i just dont like them on this car.

but, i think those black dimes would look VERY hot.

on a side note, ive never heard of ID3 wheels. any links?

[zmw]

cnote: yes that's the car i was thinking of... nice find ;P

yes, the KMC dimes... that's the one i referenced in the link above... very sexy wheel... I'm just not sold on the 22"s is all...

the original message should have said "ID 3 piece forged" the site is www.idluxurywheels.com which is the wheel that GSM sells here...

My fear with the KMC dimes is that i have a silver steel car, and I am not sure black will go well, but i'm not a chrome guy - anyone running black wheels on a SS car? - I also would have to go with the 20s (I just drive WAY WAY Too much to do 22s) which means i think i am limited to an 8.5" width....

get the dimes painted ss to match your car!

i never saw freebirds car before (ive only been here 3 weeks) but his 5 spokes i actually like a lot.





I cant tell if he has the center stripe on the spokes painted to match the color of his car or not, but i like that idea, i think it would look great.
