MUST READ !!! new, super cheap wheels for sale

nitrous_bob · 02-15-2006, 02:22 PM

american wheel @ 9 mile and gratiot (on gratiot) is closing out some wheels.

they have quite a bit left, but going fast.

i just picked up a set of 17" wheels for the old lady's saturn for $200 / set

i doubt they have anything for rwd cars (he said he had 1 set for a mustang), but if you have a grocery getter that needs to be blinged up a bit, your never gonna beat that deal.

they are all brand new , in the boxes w/ plastic, not some swap meet crap.

anyways, 22943 gratiot, 772-0558

my saturn is gonna be pimpin

Wonder if they have any 8 lug truck wheels??

How about some 22" lipless chrome for the Explorer?

nitrous_bob · 02-15-2006, 02:28 PM

i don't think so, the guy said basically imports and stuff like that.

nice wheels though. just thought i'd spread it around.

but 16"-20" i think , and most were silver, they were a few chromes out there.

Thanks. I may be looking for some new wheels for my PT.

silverknight · 02-16-2006, 12:31 PM

thanks man for the heads up. i went out there between classes and picked up the only 5x108 rims they had. they arent the universal ones which make me happy. they are twin silver 5 spoke with a deep polished lip. which is exactly what i was looking for. pics to come.

silverknight · 02-16-2006, 01:02 PM

hmm... i just measured this one rim. says 18x8... am i measureing wrong? on the box it says 17x7...

opinions?

i wonder what the parents will say when they find out

Nice rims Mario

Check on the back of the rim, it should have a size on it somewhere.

Look nice..Have you checked out prices for tires yet??

357windsor · 02-16-2006, 01:35 PM

Should get some for the wife's Taurus. Hmm..

silverknight · 02-16-2006, 01:36 PM

im lookin right now. what size should i get? i was lookin at 225/45/17 since they are the cheapest. will that sidewall be too small, or will it be ok? 225/50/17 or 235/50/17 are freekin expensive since its an odd size. and im not sure on a 55 series tire. i dont wanna be huge tire. but the 225/45/17 kuhmo's are goin to $78 each. which is pretty good. but im goin to talk to a person i know at belletire and see what i can get as far as discount.

1Quick88 · 02-16-2006, 01:58 PM

225/45 would probably look pretty good. Talk to ur buddy at Belletire and see what he has to say

245/45/17 is the size sitting on my car, and I think there's enough sidewall to them.

yeah i'm in the tire dilemna too.....

not in a rush , but it'd be nice to see a tire mounted.

i'd post mine up , but it seems my wife threw away the battery door to my digital camera
