Yet another rim thread
I finally decided I was tired of the chrome wheels. As long as I sell my others, I will be looking for some black rims with a machined lip. Does anyone have any pics of these type of wheels on a silver alero. Also if anyone has any nice wheels they want to suggest please post them. This is the one I am thinking about right now. http://www.discounttiredirect.com/direct/findWheelDetail.do?wd=18&pc=67381&rw=7.5&bp=5-114.3
Thanks

Not a 4 door but you get the idea. Actually these rims are gunmetal not black, even though it looks black.

I've got some ICW Racing rims on my car 16 spoke black with machined lip.
www.icwracing.com
I got a 225/45R17 with Michelin Pilot tires for 1,250 bucks with a 80,000 mile warranty on the tires.
Big 10 Tires is where I bought mine.

While this topic on rims is up, what are the actual bolt patterns for our cars. I was searching for it on here last night, and saw a couple of different topics saying different things. I saw one place it said that we had 5 x 115 and that some people noticed some probs with vibration with 5 x 114.3, and then I saw one that was the opposite. And what is the the best tire to put on an 18 that would be closest to a stock wheel and tire combo size? I'm lookin into gettin some rims really soon, and was just wonderin.

they suggest 225/40 18's but as far as i've also heard, 235/40 18 is just about as close as you can come
and to Cavalier....those ASA's are hideous in person. Shop around a little or if you havent, try to find them in person. When I first and last saw them, I wasnt liking em.

i was looking into getting some of these 5 spoke kyowa racing black 18's. could anyone maybe shop a pic of some of these on a red alero? I've noticed that a lot of people on here don't seem to like black on red, but I'd like to see it if possible. Would post a pic instead of a link, but don't know how.
