Please help me choose a rim.

I have to start of by saying that I will be getting married next year and i dont have much of car budget anymore. Regardless, i want to buy some new wheels for the summer with a budget of about $1500CND. I recently sold my Avant Garde's and was planning on keeping stock for abit but my love with my G is too strong.

My top two choices are Niche Essen in 20x10.5 all around and Niche Surge also in the same size.

1. Niche Essen 20x10.5. I generally like this design but i feel like it does not quite suit the roundness of a G37 Sedan very well. I dont know maybe i am over thinking this abit. Here is a few pics..










2. Niche Surge 20x10.5 This wheel design is more luxury compared to the Essen sporty look which seems lto be a better choice. Although, the super thing spoke design does make it look a bit cheap. Both of these are Vossen replicas and i wish they made them abit nicer even if they were abit more expensive. Here are some pics of the Surge in 20x10.5








Please let me know what you think. Also, we all know these are cheap rims and there are better choices out there but i need something within that budget and in 20's. These are my top 2 picks for now..

Here is my car looked like from a couple of months ago until i sold some stuff.

Thanks for your time

On a limited budget these two would be worth a look too~
20x10.5 Concept One CSM-7 Matte Silver/Machined (Concave) Wheels
20x10 Verde V20 Insignia Hypersilver Machined Wheels

Thanks for the suggestion bro but unfortunately i need to buy from a Canadian supplier. I live in Vancouver so the duty from buying in the US would cost almost as much as the wheels them selves. Whats your opinion on the 2 above if you had to pick?

I vote essen too, I've seen those in person and I'm an admitted straight multi-spoke fan.

I also vote for the Essen. I'm not a fan of the directional look.


How about Ace Convex? Not sure if they are available in Canada. Similar design, but I think they would complement the sedan better than the Essen.


If you are set on Niche wheels, I suggest the Niche Targa.
