Default wheels: chrome or machined

ok now i have an 05 ls.

i am looking for some new kicks for my car. i have looked around and all i could seem to find was 20's or higher and in crome.

now i like chrome. i think they are nice on the monte, but is not really my style.

i like the machined face look. it gives off that sporty type look i think better then chrome.

and i found a lot of machined rims online, but none that fit my car.

you may be wondering where the question is...i am getting to that, i just talk to much. anywho.....here it is.

i want a machine finish, blk or hyper silver, or hyper blk, dont matter. i dont really want anything chrome, but i do want a nice deep lip, which i understand is only gonna be chrome. i also want to sive to be 18" to 19" inches. staggered is cool also. i will wirk out the type of tires to get, i am thinking nittos, but i do like goodyears too.


yes i see after all that i have yet to get to the question....does anyone know as to where to go so can find some 18" or 19" inch machined face rimms with a two to four inch lip for under a grand???

you are asking for quite a lot for not much money.

and IMO don't stagger, you would need the larger in the front since you are FWD and it's just not worth it.

I still think we should all get a discount if they are our "sponsor."

you could run staggered if you want. it just wouldnt make sense though.
