| Alright, I have my rims. 17's....which, with an alignment are too big for the car. they stick out about 1/4" past my fenders and rub like a mofo (cant drive them). I reeeeeeeealllllly dont wanna flare my fender out..so im thinking sell the 17's and get some 16" rims...the only problem is, i need to find some 16" rims....where can i do this...what is a good spot to look for rims around here? Coast? or do i go to a shop in the city?
I have found a potential buyer, so hopefully this works out if i decide to sell.. LMK know you think and where i should go for new wheels. | |

| there are lots of places to look....question is do you want Brand New, or will you suffice with used??
brand new you'd have to get tires, balance and install them. And obviously they would have to have the proper offset for a Honda. A used set is just "plug and play" especially if they came off a Civic.
I've bought/sold around 5-6 sets of wheels for my new car. Shipping ain't bad. Duty/taxes usually depends on the declared price the seller claims (around $200).
My guess is, you're probably looking for a local set?? Doesn't CoadyAdmin have rims FS? | |

And a used set would be nice, but a New set doesnt bug me either. the only thing is, after seeing my car on 17's since ive seen the car, it looks weird on 16's.....and seem that it would sit too low to drive around here.. and can you give me a few places to look? | |
