2000 10 spoke 16X8 worth it?

I have an opportunity of getting 16X8 10 spokes for $225. Is it really worth it to buy them and put them on my car. I have the 15" on there now, but I am having troubles trying to figure out if I want to go out and spend the money on new tires and backspacers for a 16" wheel. I know that it is going to be a major improvement over the 15" but is it really worth it. Thanks for the infor everyone.

Personally, I'd say no. Our cars came with 16x8 wheels as an option, so you could easliy pick up a set that would be a direct fit.

If you're going to go thru dealing with the spacers, I'd look for a set of 17" wheels to make it worthwhile.

I dont really like those rims all that much. Their kinda confusing its like "their big split spokes...and now their split at the ends...their big split spokes and now their split at the ends.." haha I'd rather get other rims.
