Default Best Price on 04 wheels!

Looking to do wheels! After much thought I have decided to go with the 04 wheels, I like the way they look, from what I understand they weigh less and best of all they have the right offsets!!

So the question is where to go to get the best pricing on these wheels? Is there a group buy or a thought of having one.

Thanks!

I'd wait a while if I were you... As more people buy '04's, you'll start seeing OEM wheel sets coming up for sale and substantially reduced prices.

I agree with you, but I need to buy tires now and I rather put that money towards the 17 inch tires instead of some 16's now.

Talked to a buddy of mine who works at Honda. With his 15% discount, fronts go for $517 each and rears are $572. For that priced I'd rather buy some Volks and have money left over for 4.77 gears.

I have some 04 wheels with only about 1000 miles on them. Switched them off about a month ago. I am in San Diego. Interested?

quoted from X-Viper in the forsale section

"HandA used to have the '04 wheels listed in their site for about $300.00 front, $350.00 rear and about 25 bucks each for the center caps. If my math is correct, even with tax and shipping, this would be about just over $1700.00 for BRAND SPANKING NEW! And Hardtopguy will sell for even less."

Just buy some Volks instead. The '04 wheels are nice, but I'd go aftermarket 17's if I had the option.

Now, I am getting an '04... so I couldn't justify buying aftermarket 17's if the car already had them stock.

But if you're wanting 17's for an 00-03, I'd suggest CE-28n's or something along those lines.
