Alright guys I'm about due for a set of new tires so I figured I'd hunt up a set of 18's to get new tires for.. Here are a few sets I've found on CraigsList in my area.

Here's a pic the way my car sits now and I plan on lowering it 1.5 inch with the basic Teins.


Here are the links to the wheels. I am open to ANY type of opinion, negative and positive.

The Konig's are 8.5 wide, I'm not sure if they will fit..

I like the Konigs too (#1). For your color car, I also like the gunmetal wheels (#3).

AMUA6

Ah yes I'm torn between those two. As you can see I'm trying to stay pretty cheap and not too concerned on color as I have painted my stockies. The middle set came off of like a 95 MR2 and their pattern is 4x100 but the dude said they are universal.. I was kind of wanting to stay away from anything with a solid center cap but I do like the style in a way.

#3 gets my vote! They look like Enkei RP03.

Tough decision.. I've talked the guy down to $300 for the Konig's and have not contacted the others any more.

I like the 2nd set

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

I'm feeling the 3rd set.. they haven't been curbed and look really good on the guy's CL. $300 cash with tires.. but the tires will need to be replaced.

The 3rd set look good on the picture where they are mounted on the car. The original pics in you post had me thinking the spokes were too narrow and I thought the 1st set looked the best of the group. But the 3rd set look good and for the price you can't go wrong

jayracer

I'd go for the 3rd set if that means your girlfriend will still like you.

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

Haha yes, as long as the girlfriend still likes me. I was going to go pick them up yesterday but a few things came up that prevented me from doing so. So I'm hoping to get them later in the week, and hopefully he still has them and will come off the price lol

The 8.5" wide will fit a 3rd gen, I just sold my set of Konigs last week for $280.

To be honest, I don't like any of the three sets.

chi17ky

^+10 try searching harder for some better rims not feeling any of them but money is really a issue # 3 i guess

Jesstzn

I like # 3 BUT ... too narrow .. stock is 8" also what is the offset?

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

I thought our stock rims were 7.5" wide? Anyway, I went with the 3rd set. Here's a pic I took right after I got them on. They look chrome in the picture, but I'm really pleased with them.

I didn't think I would say this, but they look really good

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

Thanks bro gotta save up for a drop now!

jayracer

they do look really good.

and your girlfriend still likes you.

Just a bit narrow. Looking good.

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

Yes I need some spacers.. but not sure what size to go with? I'm assuming the previous owner of the car had some big wheels on it because my fenders have been half-ass rolled...

2Morrow

not bad. Powdercoat them !

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

What color powder coat? I have a really good friend that does powder coating so I could have them done cheap.

djbonsu

iTrader: (3)

defintely narrow but nice wheels......drop it and she will look GOOD!

2Morrow

Id powdercoat the same as your body color. AM ?
It looks good with your stockies and Im really diggin the NuStealth look that your sportin.

I Got a SSM with a-spec and I was thinkin about powdercoatin my stockies (or any aftermarket wheel that I get) the same gray as the accent pieces of the A-spec kit.

Nice avatar by the way.

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

Thanks on the avatar comment and I loved my stockies painted like that, I just wanted something a little bigger for when I go with a drop. I'll have these powder coated on down the road I'm sure, or I'll paint them. I get bored with things easily so it won't be long lol but what is "NuStealth"

2Morrow

The whole dark single color look that is not black.
imo, $hit looks hot.

Konigs.

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

If I had gotten the Konig's, the girlfriend would've disowned me. I honestly thought about having them powder coated black and redoing my headlights to black. Just going black anything and everything.. (I've been watching too much Rob & Big) lol BUT reality check! I'd like to see them photoshopped AM, anyone hook me up on this if I supply a better picture? I suck at PS

2Morrow

Maybe if your lucky...Ha ha !

TL4Life8

anyone selling nice set of rims i have the same color car as smokd05 the dark grey color.

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

I'm feeling pretty lucky lol are you a good PhotoShopper?

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

Check the Black Market, there are some very nice wheels in there.

Bayam0n

is the prices shown per wheel? of for the whole set? if per wheel, then get brand new rims, if it's for the set, then.... get brand new rims. IMO. I would rather keep my stock's then get some badly worn, dirty, and not-that-good-looking set of wheels. I don't like any of them, but if someone had a gun to my head, I would pick 3... i guess.

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

The price was per set. I bought the 3rd set and they are in immaculate condition. No curbage, scratches etc. I don't even know if the guy mounted them on his car or not lol Well worth the money IMO.

AbrahamS600

Get #2 and powdercoat them matte black..

Edit: nvmd you already bought some wheels.

I would've kept searching. The stockies look better than any of those.

mevsme

They came out looking really good on your car!

AMUA6

iTrader: (7)

I hate the look of being lowered on stockies though, I feel as if I'd be impersonating one of the local douched out civics that cut their springs in half as soon as they get the car. I'm satisfied with them, for now, I just need some spacers.. and I've really been contemplating on having them powder coated a low glass black.
