I'd be painting either wheel a dark bronze (most likely)


The Varrstoens:




The XXRs:

i guess the vars looks better, but then again both are not legit brand wheels, just fork out a bit more money and save yourself time from getting your dream wheels later. even if you have to get it used.

you know I have the same mindset on getting legit brand wheels.

You could save and get some Gram Lights or some other brand. But the variety in offset and width for 5x100's is very slim with some of those more legit brands. The majority of the 5x100's produced by them are a +40 which is what my grams are, and even with 25mm spacers they still arent flush. Here and there you will be able to find a 17x9 +22. But that is really really rare.

Varrstoens arent too bad of a manufacturer. Id trust them over XXR.

Those cheaper brands have sooo many more available sizes, that is a big reason why they are so popular


Exactly, guys. This is my daily driver and I see no point in spending upwards of $1,000 on wheels. Once I graduate college, land a good job, and can afford better things, I'll be willing to fork out $3k for Volk TE37s for the MKIV Supra that I'll actually be tracking. I see no point in getting really expensive wheels for a daily. I want the "concave" look without getting too pricey and the Varrstoens give me exactly what I'm looking for. And like Mike said, finding a good 5x100 wheel with the more expensive brands is a nightmare. I'll just wait until I have an excellent car with a 5x114.3 lug pattern (I know you can change our cars to that, but why go through the trouble?).
