Default Help with wheels??

Hey i am looking at buying some new wheels for the car. I would like to keep 16" that way i can use the stock tires. I was wondering if anyone could give me some ideas on some of the wheels available. Thanks for your help.

The 16" Spoon/Regamaster will save you 9 lbs per corner and thus shorten braking distance and increase quickness. From a performance stand point, this wheel is the best.

Go to your local bookstore/Wal-Mart & buy a copy of Sport Compact Car or Super Street Magazines. There's a ton of wheel/tire websites in them. Your local performance shop should have brochures for most of them as well.

What am I thinking.... I have a brand new set (never been mounted or had tires mounted on them) of 17' Volk Racing TE37's Gunmetal Gray at my local shop I ordered then changed my mind to SE37A's. I can e-mail you pictures if you'll pm me your address. They want $2000 firm. Yes there is a group buy on these for $1775 but, this doesn't include shipping or customs fees so they'll end up at or near $2000 and they won't be here for another month or so. Let me know if your interested. If you want to call about them: Upgrade Performance (850) 671-1596 ask for Greg or Shaun.
