Default changing back wheels only

3 tickets and an accident later i can't really afford to buy new wheels but i really need new tires on the back(hince the accident). would it be possible to put a set of 17" emotion Cr 8" wheels on the back and leeve my stock fronts till i have more money to replace them. also does n e 1 have an opinion on how the bronze would look on red or flat black?

Nothing functionally wrong, but you already know how funny it will look. Why not pick up some cheap used stock rear wheels? Bronze looks good on black, OK on red, IMO.

It would not hurt the car to do it but they would look funny. Why not just save the money and buy everything together.

u'll always need new tires.. i hate the 'rush rush' effect that 2 aftermarket wheels mixed with 2 stockers bring to cars. its just not that cool.
