ok this isnt the normal post on here but here goes. my car has sat for a year because i didnt have the money to fix everything that needed fixing. now i do. the wheels i have (pic in sig) are ok looking in pics but in person are horrible. they are 16x8 and are in terrible condition. curb rash and bad paint ect. now i have 2 BRAND NEW front tires installed and then i found out that one rim is bent pretty badly. plus im missing a lug nut that no one local (checked all the wheel shops here) carries nor do they know where to get them from.

so what do i do? keep what i got and put some new nittos on the back, get some cheap ebay 4th gen 17 inch wheels (probably cant get nittos then and ill eventually need them) or maybe check someplace else? i was thinkin about the SLP ZR1 wheels but they dont provide enough tire for me. im lookin for 500 or less.

 

if u want a big cheap wheel buy some steelies. Like some chrome mods or blacks mods they are about 40 each and u get 10 inch ones.

 

good luck on this one.

 

If money is tight go with steelies. My first set of new wheels were steel cragers (in pic) several years ago I got some centerlines which beleive it or not don't really impress me. Point is I think they look good and you can't beat the price. You can get them for about 60 - 70 dollars each.

 

i say try junkyard before you go ebay. freind of mine picked up some 4th gen wheels and tires for 250. paint was crappy but he sandblasted them painted them black and they looked great, he spent way more on wheel spacers then the rims too.

 

i want to improve the look of my car. by bigger i meant 17s as opposed to my 16s i have now. a nd wheel spacers arent a problem theyll only be about 120 bucks a set.

 

I picked up my SS rims for $500 with good tires.

look on all the classifieds online.

 

Nice set on the Chicago Boards for 500.00, Brand New! Wheels & Tires!
