Why not powdercoat your stock wheels?

Powdercoat is available in gloss, looks great, and is cheap.

Just a thought, get the factory wheels powdercoated. Is a pic on here somewhere of one that is done, looks sharp.

Would be much cheaper than buying new wheels and tires.

Just have them PCed...Go to a reputable local PCer and he will have a key chain of a gazillion choices of colors and variants for you to choose from. You can also have a few combos done to create a image of greater depth to the wheel. Also have them lay down a coat of clear over your color choice for greater durability.

Haven't seen those. They look pretty sharp.

The KMC wheels, XD Rockstars, and Moto Metal's look pretty cool. Not sure about price or fitment. 4wheelparts.com has most of them but you can probably get better prices elsewhere.

20s are small for suvs. 20s with low pros are tiny! I think that would be like 3"-5" smaller than the stock tire (depending on how low-profile you go). IMO you would need atleast 26s to achieve a 20s with low pro "look" on an suv like the h3.

Here is a site that helped me visualize what different tire sizes and rim sizes would look like compared to stock.

tirecalc

Good luck, and keep us updated!

You should easily be able to obtain new rims and tires within 3k. I got mine from www.wheelsandspinners.com. I found what rim i wanted then shot out emails to several online retailers with a few different tire options and wound up with those guys. Im still a little grumpy they still have yet to send my locking lug nuts but all in all they gave me a great deal and were pleasant to work with.
