| In town, all that places seem to stock are FWD wheels. I'd look on the net and find wheel that are staggered, your bolt pattern and the offset and width you want. |

staggered??why? But I agree with shopping on the net for them. |

Look at the classifieds on tt.net, there are usually some good stuff on there. I found my Volks on that site for a great price.
Most of them will be correct offset as well. |

just curious, what is the correct after market offset for the Z32 TT? I want 18inch rims, I was thinking 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5...would that work? |

I believe the offsets somewhat vary based on wheel design, I think mine are 37 front 42 rear.
8.5F 9.5R will work just fine for width.
Do you have any specific wheels in mind? |

I got my rims/tires from bigwheelz for a pretty decent price and Harry was pretty good to work with. Both of those places are in Calgary and are almost exactly the same in price, but differ a little in selection. Best places around I've found so far. |

Thanks for sites!!! I found some on the first web site that I liked but they are like $130 a rim, that worries me why they are so cheap.
This is the Volk rim I want...aanyone know of any rims that look like this? and are a little cheaper but are still of good quality?...or anyone know where to get volk rims for a good price?  |

Volks = $$$
You do get what you pay for, and Volks are awesome rims. Light and strong. Badass lookin' rim, there's some serious lip on that thing! |

5zigen or Work maybe?
Also, if you call or e-mail cms, they can get almost any rim you want at a pretty decent price, I do remember them telling me they can get Volks and a couple other forged rims. |
