Hi,
The Canadian GX base model without convenience package comes with the steel wheels. Altough I do not mind the style, I do not like the color on the steel wheels, particularly on silver cx-5.
I have few options and would like to know which option would be the best way to go. The reasons I have chosen the base GX with steel wheels were due to budget, but also durability of steel wheels on long road trips.
Option 1) Just leave without doing anything.
Option 2) Use sand pager and repaint steel wheels to bright silver color.
Option 3) Buy factory 17 inch alloys and sell my steel alloys. (but can't find anyone within Pacific Northwest selling the factory 17 inch alloys)
Option 4) Buy aftermarket alloys such as sports edition (Like D5) from tirerack for approximately $500 dollears shipped to Canada and sell my steel wheels. (But if I need to replace one or two wheels in the future, being aftermarket alloys gets discountinued all the time, I will not be able to find new or used one and therefoe ending up buying whole new sets which gets more costly in addition to paying $500 now.)
If some one with big heart can share any thought or comment will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you
