Winter Rims Suggestions?

[Newf]

Every car I always buy some back steelies, but this year I'm thinking...no. I want something nicer, but of course money is a HUGE problem right now.

Was trying to pick up a set of used 15's locally, but I can't find any.

Had someone offer me a set of New Ekei's EUM-2 rims for a decent dollar but....not sure about them. Don't know nothing about the rims, or if it will even fit. Big risk as they are not local.

Any suggestions on a cheap 15" wheel that will fit the speed? I want 15, as 16" winter tires here are way more $$$ then 15's for some reason

i dont know how much youre lookin to spend, but if rota makes them in 15" their rims are pretty cheap, and light too.

Compomotive rally wheels (TH2 or TH3)
Indestructable and available hub-centric.
15x6.5 +40 (or so) with a 67.1 mm center bore is common because it's sometimes used on Lancer EVOs for winter or gravel rallies.
See if you can get in touch with a rally shop in your area they may have a set of used ones.

I've seen those rally wheels before.

ugly, I would rather steelies

Looking for as cheap as possible. What other oem car wheels would fit ours?

92-96 Toyota MR2's have similar offset, and same bolt pattern, but the non turbo's came with 14"ers

I'm in the same situation newf.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Honda rims would fit but the centerbore it too small. Same with Toyota/Lexus.

Mitsubishi rims might fit nicely ... but I'm not sure if all their 5-bolt cars have the same centerbore as the Lancer EVO.

But .. Konigs (traffik), Rota slipstream and even the Team Dynamics Pro-Race wheels are pretty cheap.

Save an extra 200-300 bucks, and buy a winter beater. No reason to be driving a limited edition car in the frikin snowy, coldness of winter, when you can toot your necessary trips in a beater.

$15K do not buy you a limited edition car... in fact they do buy you an all weather transportation...

Maybe this could help, 16" steelies for 41$ a piece.

 

[grishulia]

Maybe this could help, 16" steelies...to put the OEM's on... for a total of $120...

I will personally b**** slap you if you use your oem rims in the winter.

Your nuts. They will chip, fade, and you'll stains all over them that WON't come off.

I still have my steelies, but i too would like to upgrade to some new rims. Im trying to get a hold of a resonable price set of p5 rims within driving distance.
