If you like them we can easily get these powder coated in our facility

in either Matte Black or Gloss Black for you.

it only takes us about 5 business days to fully cut the specs for you and have the wheel powder coated. is all completed in house.

What would be the additional cost?

I've looked at both and I like the MMDs. I confirmed with AM that I could use the 19x10 on the front as well, but to Kyber's point they look a little flat. I'm not crazy about the Targas no matter how much i've tried to warm up to them. The spokes look a little on the thin side to me. Which set of Niche did you pick up? I've also considered the Essen.

I'm with you regarding how much to spend. To me the M350 was really the best compromise and it looks great, but the wait is killer.
The Essens in matte black 20x10. We REALLY need to stop trying to copying eachother's setup without even knowing it lol :thumbsup:

I just got them on today, a bit of a hassle because they needed spacers on the fronts (not expensive only about $16) but wasn't prepared for that because CJPP didn't say they needed them. Luckily I looked back at the Niche thread and NeedForSpeed has discussed what is needed.

They also need hubcentric rings which just pop in on the back of the centercap. Metal ones were like $15 on ebay.

I couldn't justify $2000+ for just wheels without tires after dropping $32k cash after trade in on the car 6 months ago (and 2 exhausts as you know). The wheels are nice. The finish surely isn't Voseen like quality but it's good enough. For $250/wheel if one gets damaged a few years down the line it's not a huge money loss

hah I promise I'm not doing it on purpose!!! :cheers: If it makes you feel any better i'm leaning towards a different style at the moment.:ninja: But I completely agree regarding $$. If i knew I was going to keep the car for a very long period of time, it'd be easier for me to justify getting a set of Vossens or HRE. But for my purposes, I have a much lower price range in mind.

Exactly, that's why I went with the Niche on Nitto for now. In say 5 years there could be a model refresh with a different bolt pattern the wheels wont fit and then all you have is 5 year old wheels to sell for pennies on what you paid for them. Plus I go with the look I like not the brand per se, they're just wheels and it's not a show car or anything just a DD.

I also couldn't imagine getting rash on a $750-1,000 wheel, it'd be as bad to me as someone bumping the car with a shopping cart in the lot. $250 and something happens, I can replace it without a thought and not feel bad about it.

Oh don't get me wrong, I love the Vossen VPS 302; my favorite wheel. Until I saw that they were $2,000 PER WHEEL for 20" any width without TMPS or tire. That's nuts. You're at $11-12k for wheels/tires on a $30-40k car.

I'm at just over $1,800 into wheels/Nitto 555s/TMPS shipped (plus $32 for hubcentric rings and 2 wheel spacers for the fronts) PLUS $95 or so in CJPP points on top. Can't beat that deal.
