the only thing with e series is there wheel offset, doesn't give a large variety to choose from. but there are some awesome wheeles out there that will fit, i suggest gettin a catalogue from your nearest wheel and tyre shop, give you an idea. what are you after, chrome, alloy, dish or no dish?

well you should be able to get some cool wheels for that amount of money. try bob jane. there pretty good with there prices. i got 18 inch deep dish wheels for my xr and they were only 1800$ but i got them at a special price, they were normally 2200$ cause i know the manager. but they look awesome, i will have to get a pic.

After seeing your car, I reckon a set of BF Typhoon copies in 19" would look awesome!! I know you want to :P
