can someone help me find some rims??

[sleepyalero]

im looking for 17 inch rims... trying to find some back rims with a blue lip. basically black/blue rims... just dont want blue spokes with a black lip...

if you can post some links on what you find that would be great. im looking around online right now, but cant find one that will fit the alero, i have seen some that are 5x114.3 but idk if those will fit?

let me know guys, thanks.

although 5X114.3 aren't recommended, I know plenty of people who have used them without problems...

I think Tirerack.com has a set of black rims with a blue lip

thanks kwhuack dont really want 18s though ;) thinkin 16-17s i cant decide.. lol just dont want too big of rims and have a chance of cracking one by accidently hitting a random pot hole or something. :p

i would like these only if they had em in a blue stripe instead of red.

I guess you took one glance at the ebay link...

"This rim come in 17 inches too if you need some we can make a listing for you here on ebay, let us know"

What Kyle posted for you is a great deal seeing as it comes with tires too.

[sleepyalero]

**ck. My bad ill have to look again.

[kwhauck]

just buy some all blacks and have the lips powdercoated....

[sleepyalero]

yeah ill probably do that.. i got a buddy that works at a tire place looking for some rims too,

thanks guys.

[XanderWiFi]

tirerack.com is the place to go. I second the notion.

[Alerojester]

X3 on tirerack or google search aftermarket rims there are a million sites that have rims on them

[sleepyalero]

yeah i checked tire rack they dont have black with blue lip. and ive been searching google a bit, only got 2 rims so far. trying to loook for more to get more of an option to choose from.

[keytonic]

Did you check Wheelmax? I got a good deal there when I had my Aler $750 whels, tires, shipped the offbrand tires I took were better than any name brand one I've had

[sleepyalero]

ill check that out thanks.

man they got some good deals now just gotta find the right wheel...

[Redog]

I cracked one of my stock 16's

[sleepyalero]

yeah when my uncle owned the car he had to get rims cause two of the stock wheels were dented from hitting a pot hole, so i dont have stock wheels for winter. :(

once i get a new set of wheels the american racing ones will be the winter set. :)

Not sure if these are in your price range, or style, but as Kyle mentioned, they can be powdercoated with the blue you want...

[alero_bmxer]

okay do not go to tire rack please. I can't count how many times people have ordered tires from tirerack and had them sent to our shop to be mounted and then have to buy new ones all over again because they have excessive hop/roadforce. same for the rims, i almost guarantee if you get a set from them they will be out of round and a pain to balance. we believe they buy the reject tires/rims from the manufacturer for dirt cheap and then re sell them for the same price. just my .02

[kwhauck]

Your info must be wrong, because I have ordered two sets of rims and over 10 sets of tires from tire rack and have never had a problem......

[03Sleepr]

go to mr.wheel deal..that is if you know what brand and model you want..

[Cliff8928]

Yeah, no issues with many sets of tires from the tirerack... 3 of which were for the Alero.
