$500 for wheels AND tires? Run....run fast. Hell...I paid close to $500 for my tires alone. At that price both the tires and wheels have got to be crap (unless they're decent tires and totally shitty wheels). This is especially true as wheel size gets bigger. I'd say save your money and get some quality wheels and tires...it makes all the difference.

97CivicBoy,

I agree with GT40. Save your money and get decent wheels and tires.

When I got wheels and tires for my truck, I paid just over 1k for my wheels and 650 for the tires.

Your Friend,

JJ

i paid 800 dollars for rims and tires, they are 17x7 arospeed riots, gunmetal. rims are fine, but the tires lasted only 20,000 miles. they were defective, some brand named federal. in order to get even wear, i had to over inflate them, which wasn't good for the tires to begin with!
