Default my "rims" haha

haha ill prolly get laughed out of the forum for this but i went with a set of 15's on my car due to many many facts, the top 3 being. 1. 865 a month mortgage, 2. the fact that the road i live on is a tire eater and 15's are alot cheaper then bigger ones, and 3. i went to all the trouble to put a lowered racing suspension on the car and if i put big wheels on it the car woulda been jacked up again.

but anyway heres a pic of my measley 15's please be gentle HAHA



and

i like them

my personal taste is a little bigger...but to each his own...i want to put 20's on my monte...but i think i'ma gonna have to stick with my 17's because 20's are just a little too much for me right now...

but they are nice on there

Have you thought of going with bigger wheels with low profile tires. Tire from top to bottom wouldnt be any bigger just less rubber. Either way you have a great looking car.

Two things one good one bad.

Actually those wheels look much better on that car than I would think. Even though they are 15’s they really have a nice look when they are on the car. I wouldn’t even think twice about it, they look GOOD.
If there is anything that I would laugh at about the car, it would be that big *** wing on the back of a front wheel drive car. But then again, I’mold schooland I believe you should leave the big wings on the race track.[/ol]

thats so true, my ex had 20's with those tires so skinny u cant hardly see them and her rims got scratched up and beat to pieces by my road where as my 15's with the bigger tires feel better, handle better, ect... plus a cost of 6000 vs 500 well the choice is obvious espically when you KNOW what the money is spent on is gonna get torn up without doupt
