    i like these wheels

    I say yay

    215-50 r17




    200 bucks with tires and 20 lugnuts. Look like Sebring wheels, which are 5x114.3. I never thought of sebring wheels but the ad only says 'chrysler wheels'...I had to go digging to figure out what they came off of to get the bolt pattern. i'll lowball him and see if he'll do 150. I am sick as fuck of staring at my dirty slightly rusty steel wheels and those gross lacey spoke wheels in my basement are a lost cause.

      and the speedo will read slightly fast



      Actual Speed: 60 mph 100 km/h

      Speedometer1: 63.2 mph 105. km/h

      I don't see any clearance issues since they'll be slightly smaller. Same distance sidewall to sidewall

              Paint the old lacey spokes gloss black (leave the chrome lip) and bolt them onto the car.

                    the lacey spoke wheels would take a shitload of work to even approach decency. they would look good but i don't want to sink a shitload of time into wheels that i don't like THAT much to begin with. if they were turbines it would be worth the effort
