Im going to get My 19"Rimms,springs and Tires today. Should I keep the old ones? I have never put aftermarket rims on a car so I am kinda naive when it comes to this stuff. Anyway Im getting some 19" altstadts Ill put up pics soon (promise).

either sell them, or keep them and put slicks on them, and run the hell out of them when you go to the tracks

Sounds good....the wheels that is. Selling or not is really up to you. If you need the money, then I would sell...but if not, and you have room for the extra set of wheels in your house somewhere, then keep them for certain occasions.

unless ur hard up for money, always keep ur stock...put them on during winter time so u dont ruin the rims and performance tires that aren't made for snow...also...keep them just in case u sell the car...stock cars w/ stock parts always have a higher value than cars w/ after market stuff...at least that's what i've experienced and heard...

 

Don't forget to post photos after the work is done..

i'd keep them. That way when it comes to trading the car in, you won't take a dive on 19" rims because the dealer most likely will give you NOTHING for them.

I'd say to keep them also. You never know when you will encounter the dreaded 6" deep pothole and ding your 19"s. It's much better to run on one stock rather than your trunk spare while getting a rim repaired.

 

I'd buy a rim too! I killed one on my car.
