Hey Guys,

I'm pretty new to this forum, and I wanted to buy some cheap wheels for my cav. Are the wheels in the image real American Racing rims? He seems to be undercharging for them. Was hoping for some expert opinions. Thanks!

you actualy want those?

Not those ones exactly, but ones that are not chromed. Hey I said I was looking for cheap ones! I dont want to put $800 rims on a $2000 car. Not yet anyway.

yes they are and yuck

Thanks man! Yes, I know I have bad taste.

Hope you dont pay more then $50 total for those

American Racing wheels aren't that expensive to begin with.

if you aren't picky about wheels you can probly get a cheap set on ebay and they'll look way better then those

Those wheels are like 10 years old, my dad bought a set of 16" American Racing wheels back in 98 or 99 for my first Cav that I took over payments on before it had a collision with a school bus. The logo looked exactly like that.



That picture was taken over 6 years ago...

American Racing wheels aren't the greatest, if they were Motegi Traklites and they were some insane price maybe, but those are god awful! 3 Spoke Wheels FTL! Have you looked at the price of brand new 15" rims, because that's what those are, or even picking up a stock set of 16's. Those are 16's in my picture, tiny!

why not ? i did... look at it now !! haha. yea those are butt ugly. look on craiglist.com you will find a better looking wheel n tired deal most likely.

Thanks for your input guys. I tried looking all over on craigslist and kijiji. I found some great deals, but out of what i wanted to spend. I found a similar set of wheels for cheap and honestly they look better than the steelies.

Click that and spend the extra money, its worth it, trust me.

Or if you're close to Dayton, Ohio (not that there would be any way of telling since you're slacking on filling out your registry.... arghh) you could pick these up for cheap as hell and be way better looking than those awful ARs http://www.j-body.org/classifieds/wheel/50990/

You might wanna fill out your profile so we know what you have now

A set of Cavy 96-99 or 00-02 or any 16" rim would look better than those

You could probably find a set with tires cheap

if you really want a set of 3 spokes, look for an older set of Sunfire wheels. damn, don't get those AR wheels...fugly
