Wheels????

I just purchased wheels and they don't fit!!!! Any suggestions of a wheel that fits well with the Brembo brakes? I would like gunmetal and prefer a chrome lip.

Check the Tire/Wheel forums sponsored by TireRack.

Neal @ Tirerack will help you out in the event you're looking for something they don't regularly stock. I know offhand they only stock about 20 different wheels that'll clear those Brembo's, but they can get just about anything you need.

The offset was wrong. They are going to give me my money back but that doesn't solve all problems. I've found the Volks, Works, & BBS, but I don't want to spend a lot. The Volk Gramlights are my fav. but pricey.

TDR wheels might be a good match for your price considerations, but they won't have a polished lip. My BBS wheels have a polished lip and diamond black center, but they cost a lot more. Your best balance of price and looks/performance might be some Volks - a lot of vendors have great prices on them.

black/gun with polish lip = Buddy Club P1 Racing II, Gialla Volcano, PIAA FR7, Gram Lights 57 pro, Work XSA 02C (nice), SSR Professor SP1, Racing Hart CP F Tune, Sparco Viper R, Volk racing GT7, GTU, LE37, LE37, GT-C, GT-N, G-Games 77W (gotta check fitting) to name a few.
