The cost I have seen on a couple sites and also on eBay is 1500-1600 for a set of 4. I dont know the "official" weight numbers but I have seen posts on a.couple different forums saying 23lb for the 10" width which sounds reasonable IMO

Still debating whether to get 10" width for all 4 or 8.5" in the front. The offsets for both are +22. Can anyone tell me if I would need spacers to be close to flush?

go 10" all around. the 8.5 is too skinny yo.

Ok, I will go with 10's all around then.

Can anybody help me with the fitment though? Again, the offsets are +22. Idk how these will fit in the front and rear. Will I need spacers?

will you run camber front / back?

Meh it's just to hold me off till I get new wheels later this year. You can't even tell it's plasti dip by looking at it in person.

Buy the Nismo's for around 850, have them shipped to me and powdercoated black for 300 and you've got a great lightweight forged set of wheels for under 1200. If you are getting new tires also, I can hook you up, since I have a wholesale account and you are local.

I acutally bought these to coat and resell, but decided to use them for myself.

Just picture these in black (just coated them today!), they have a 2" lip in back and 1" in front

I might have done this if I didn't hate the look of those wheels

Any thing else will be just as heavy as the stock nismo rims.

I decided to go with these. Wedssport SA55M in matte grey. 19x9.5 +15 front and 19X10.5 + 15 rear. They look sick IMO. 20lbs front and 21lbs rear according to the seller.

If anyone is interested in stock Nismo wheels I have a thread in the marketplace.

What size tire are you running on those Wedssport 10.5" rears? 285's? They look great, and are very light!
