[cavaliers60]

Not quite sure about this yet... It is growing on me though...

And this one, I thought it was really neat, but not sure if it would look good on the ho.

So let me know what ya'll think! thanks :thumb:

haha check the prices on the first 2 then tell me if you can afford them.

3rd one is ugly.

4th one........ come on dude you drive an alero and being from indiana you are most likely white. those rims dont go on honkeys cars.

have you lowered your car? if not id start with that rather than rims. maybe a body kit too befor rims.

rims on a stock car look kinda goofy to me

[doubleN0alero]

stfu brent, i had the 3rd ones for awhile...the biggest you could get in those is 17's...go with the first ones in 18s

[SweetNLow]

sorry brad i never had the heart to tell ya that they were ugly dude. i still like you dont worry! <3

[Spitfire]

The American Racing rims (#3) look the best but as pointed out they're only available up to 17" which still looks small on Aleros...#4 is just wrong...I dunno, the first two are nice looking but maybe a bit "boxy?" for the alero? Like too jagged for the cars curves, but that's just my opinion

[Doomgiver]

I like the same ones you like cavalier

[SweetNLow]

4th are the ugliest followed by the ar rims.......

if your set on getting any of those get #1 cuase rivots are gay and #2 has rivots

[derek_ski99]

foose wheels...we got a high roller here folks

Yeah I noticed that myself...

Also, I have to agree with Sweet on the rivets being gay factor :P (hence why I say go for the Foose ones)

[SweetNLow]

ya rivots are gay but sometimes you have no choice.

i might get rims with rivots for my next rims actually. haha now i contradicted myself

[Doomgiver]

I think your rims are awesome, why you getting new ones?

[SweetNLow]

i like them but i loved the first set of rims i had im tryin to find something similar in style to them. lemme dig up an old pic of my car

[SweetNLow]

these are my old rims. i like rims with bent spokes like that....... i think it give the car more of a lower look to it..... kinda like its crushing the rims ya know. those tires were way to low profile though and i bent a rim and they dont make them anymore. they never made those rims period the person befor me had them custom chromed.

but anyways i found similar ones but with riviots. might get them next year but i dunno

[Doomgiver]

Those are sweet...I dunno if I like them better than the ones you've got now though. I've always been partial to rims bent the opposite of those, where they scoop in towards the center if you know what I mean.

[Doomgiver]

Are those still 18's or are they 17" I can't tell

[SweetNLow]

ya i know what you mean. i dont like them scooping in though. everyone has there own style though. im VERY particular on rims. i do really like the ones i have now though so it will be hard for me to get rid of these but we will see

[Doomgiver]

Well, just keep them around in case you want to switch back :biggrin:

[SweetNLow]

those are 18's also....... just looks smaller cuse of the thin tire

[Doomgiver]

Cool, you must have been running a 30 profile? What brand/model are they? I don't think I've ever seen those before, they look good, kind of like Torq-Thrust II's

[SweetNLow]

those were millie megllia spyder's.

they came out with spyder II's but they didnt look quite the same.

see i knew i shouldnt have started lookin for rims cuase now i found exactly what i want.

anyone wanna buy my rims?

[Doomgiver]

How much?

[SweetNLow]

haha well........ my rims were $350 each brand new..... so thats what $1400 right there....... the ONLY blemish on this rims is an extremely small curb mark on the driver front.

tires have only been on the car 10 months and only drove the car 4 of those months. and the tires were $150 apiece so thats $600........ umm i dunno id prolly want $1400 or so for them. they are basically brand new

[Doomgiver]

Whelp, I'm too poor right now. Nevermind. I must spend too much money on the sauce :alcoholic: j/k.

[SweetNLow]

haha you and me bother spend to much on the sause brother!

nah im to broke to be able to sell the rims and buy the new ones anyways right now. $1300 in paint and materials to mold my razzi kit and paint my car is draining me right now.

[Doomgiver]

Ya I would say so...and that's doing the labor yourself

:lol:

[cavaliers60]

the fourth ones were more of a joke. haha I'm not to inclined to buying them.... the first two are like $225 each.... Which I guess isn't bad for Foose Wheels.. :biggrin: I'm thinking more on the line of #1.... but I might also look into #3 because it's curved more like the aleros are... but definately considering the first ones... thanks for the input guys!


oh and yes, I am white. haha

[SweetNLow]

no WAY those first ones are $225........ what size are you looking at?

[doubleN0alero]

yeah for 225, i'll buy a set

[Cliff8928]

Defnintely number one... Are you getting them from a local distributor or ordering them online... I know there's a few places around me that sell them... You can search for local retailers at http://www.mhtwheels.com

X2

the third choice probably looks the best for the alero...but you need 18's so I'd go for #1

[Thrawn]

Foose wheels for 225??? Wow, even if they looked like crap I'd take them for that price just to have them! Plus, the first ones do look really good.

Oh, wait....go for choice number four :P bling bling

[PrImEtImE]

i'd say go with the first ones that you seem to like the best also. Also go with 18's or maybe even 20's :thumb:

[cavaliers60]

yep! $225 each... and I beleive they were 17's.... 18's ran around $250ish....

[Coldfire]

So when you gonna pick those up?

[Alero2k4]

Get number 1 in an 18, if you don;t, you'll be sorry.

For god's sake do NOT get number 3...everyone and their dog has those, plus their ugly

:Noooo: :Noooo: :Noooo:

Seeing as how he lives in Utah, I am going to bet he's looking at Les Schwab, since they carry foose and are the main distributors in Utah, Idaho, etc

2....I just don't know about.

Sweet, those rims are a trip man, they really do look like they are getting crushed or somethin.

Did I just reply to like 4 post????? Ya damn straight!
