Got wheels?

I am looking for a good set of rims to use for snow tires on my new P5. I really don't care how they look as long as they aren't bent and are rather clean. I would prefer an alloy rim vs. a steelly rim that will require a hubcap. I have been checking this site, the protegeclub.com site, ebay and various other sites and am growing sick of the searching.

Again, looking for some rims for $200 or under to throw some snow tires on. I would prefer 14-15" rims. 16" are too big for snow tires----quite expensive too.

Any suggestions other than what I listed above?

Thanks!

YES, look in your yellow pages for places that carry used wheels. Look for salvage yards.....but your selection of alloy wheels is varry limited as there aren't that many you will find that fit our cars. for winter tires of the sizes you are looking for you are probably going to have a lot better luck finding some steelies to fit.

Good Luck on your hunt.
 
hmmmm

I was hoping that someone would tell me that the alloys from the late 90's Protege would bolt up without a problem. If that were the case, I would have to bet that SOMEONE would have an old set lying around that they aren't using. Heck, I'd eve give $250 for them:)


Did I mention that I hate steelies?;)

Thanks!
