      i need new wheels

      hi all
      i bought my 2007 spicy orange 4dr sedan in may
      i wasnt aware that no one makes cool 14" wheels

      also what tire size wopuld i need for 15" wheels

      mine are currently 185/60r-14

      I run 15" Rota circuit 8's which are gunmetal with a polished lip. The tires are 205/50/15 but if you want economy get 195/50/15. I went a little wider since I tend to take my cars to the track.

      I highly recommend ROTA, they are about $450-500 shipped to you and you will get your money back if you have to resell them in the future.

      Check out my "pics from this weekend" for pics of my car or my "Pictures of my Skittle" thread for some close ups.

      you're right
      i like their wheels
      the one i like isnt in 15" just 16"
      except they are either all silver or all black
      im hoping for chrome around the lip

      so i went out to a few stores and found only one 15" wheel i liked

      however i found online what i want

      american racing casino black 16x7 offset 42

      the tires they suggest are 205/40/16

      will these fit my 2007 aveo sedan (currently 185/60/14

      never mind
      one store said that a 42 offset is too high
      they recommend 30 to 40 for my car

      i found some helo 15x7 with a 38 offset that are similar to the casino black

      and 195/50/15 tires
