    Hey everyone, Im on a quest to find some cheap steel wheels for my 240sx. I've checked out Diamond racing, Basset and Aero to name a few. I was just curious of anyone knew of any other good steel wheel makers? Im looking for a 15x8 +0 with a 4x114 bolt circle. I have searched the forums but, have't really seen anything that i haven't already looked at.

    Thanks guys!

    Not sure how cheap you want, but I know Tire Rack sells steelies. You have to talk to a customer service rep. I'm going to buy a new set for my snow tires this season.

    ya ive seen that. i dont think they can make the wheels i want. i pretty sure they dont offer wheels with a decent offset. they are probably all fwd offset like +40 or something, but i will give then a shot.

    How about widened steelies from your local wheel repair shop? I don't know how much it would cost though.

    I've had Circle Racings, Diamonds and Bassetts, of the three I like the Bassetts best. Good quality, etc, the only drawback is they ONLY supply 45 degree taper holes, standard lugs are 60 degree taper and will cause the wheel to break if used!
