Ok im hoping for a bit of input / help here..

i've been given the opportunity to get some nice new wheels for my burpday (its not till september)
the idea i have in my head is a bit of chrome deep dish rims, with a shadow chrome middle bit (lol im hopeless describing i know)

if you have pics on what you think would look nice on my s15 please post them up! i just need ideas and i have no idea where to start looking, google images dont help much..

and budget wise is 1500, 2000 is pushing it... doesnt matter if they r 2nd hand. im not asking for someone to sell me wheels (unless they can wait till mid september..) Just ideas on what would look good.

thanks :)

if you want something that is cheap but has dish and looks pretty good on S15's get StarCorp Impuls, pretty sure thats why Zei is selling.

they are are good wheel for the price, The Zenetti Kaotics look pretty good too.
