I think inexpensive wheels are a good choice for street cars if you drive on a lot of rough roads. Chances are, eventually, you will hit a pot-hole or get some curb rash. I'd rather spend $200 to replace a wheel than $700. Even if you get tires wih a good rim protector, the sidewall is so small (more so on 19's and 20's) that it's going to be difficult to avoicd damaging the a wheel at some point.
I plan on getting new wheels for mine, and here are the things I'm going to look for:
- the right width/offset (so not too look sunken in the wells like the stock wheels =gross)
- farily easy to clean
- not too heavy (rotating mass kills power)
- don't have to use spacers
- not going to have to run rubber band tires to avoid rubbing on the suspension components.
Expensive wheels are expensive to replace, and for 99% of drivers that don't track their cars, inexpensive wheels should serve their purpose just as well as the baller ones.
