Nice price, ugly rims. Maybe if you had a white alero.... I mean you cant beat the price though, I paid that much for each one of mine

ya but your rims suck.
those rims in that auction arent bad........ you could get much uglier rims (see djskunks). but anyways it says that 3 of the tires are also bad too. so 250+60 shipping+atleast $175 for 3 new tires is $480 so you most likely will be sinking $500 into rims that are descent...... but have a good amount of curb rash and scrates on them.
i think you should wait for a better deal to come around

Now im gonna be the bigger man and say nice car and nice rims. No reason to hate on someone you dont know. Besides we have different taste down here in Texas you dont have to like it.

THing is I bought these rims when I had a big Park Evenue, then I wrecked it and got the alero and decided to go ahead and cram them on there. But if I would have bought new rims now, I might have gone with some different ones.

Beside this is a SLAB, not a tuner, different style alltogether. I like the fact that my car is like 9 inches off the ground lol.

wow, rims are a touchy subject around here. anyway, yeah my car is white, but in the auction he said he powdercoated them silver, so i imagine they look butt ugly right now. but if the price is right i may hop on them...

Hey troyertrain, what color is your car? That would help determine if those would look good or not. The price is a steal, assuming nothing is wrong with them that pic could be hiding something...
One last thing...17's usually still look kind of small on the alero and I would definately suggest looking for some 18's, but of course, that price again is hard to pass up :P

wtf is a SLAB? Is that similar to a DONK? Do you have aspirations of being featured on www.eastcoastryders.com
is this more your style?

slab = slow, loud and bangin... southern thing that usually means a car is completely tricked out or whatnot.
however, the only thing i see on there are 20s on stock susp. like brent said.
Definitely nowhere near slab worthy.
*slap*
