Default Ok boys: New wheel possiblity, tell me what ya think!

Ok one of my buddies back home called me and told me that there was a guy selling some new Chrome 18x9 American Racing Rebels for a STEAL. He said like $70-90 a wheel. What do ya guys think??

I kind of like them myself...AND i wouldn't have to buy new tires since mine would fit, and they still have some good tread on em.

If so then I would pass so you can get some fatter ones, not sure if I like those rims or not.

They arent too bad. Definitely an upgrade from your current set up. It'll make the car look so much better and if you can get it cheap...do eeet

Yea they're all 18x9. It's what my current wheels are. Just cuz right now i rotate my wheels since its my DD. I just kinda want a different look and if i can get em cheap i didn't see the harm.

Once i get more serious about the car ill def get some fatter wheels/tires out back.

Well, if it were me, i'd get something that had black in it. Chrome on silver doesn't look good to me. If you would put your chin spoiler back to black, then you would have that plus your convertible top to match a black set of wheels.

not bad, good deal for the price

and I know you get a ton of sh*t about your wheels, but those are a lot better than the ones you've got now, could sell the ones you have now and get some nice ones and use those american racing as dd's

Smitty just put black saleens on his silver car and I can't believe how much I like them. I think they look AWESOME. Have you thought about those?
