I'm only on my 2nd if you consider the factory wheels your 1st. I have been thinking about getting some new ones though since mine are almost 7 years old and have seen a couple of curbs in their lifetime.

I dont consider the factory wheels as anything. So I'm on my first set of aftermarket ones that are about 3 years old and still in perfect condition.

If you don't consider the factory wheels, then I'm on my 3rd set for the tib with no plans for another. Still love these rims! Frontier has a 2nd set for snows and the veloster has 2 sets of aftermarket. 1 for summer, 1 for winter. The factory wheels where so ungodly heavey, I decided to get light weight after markets for summer and winter.



Speaking of which, I'll be posting a FS thread soon for like new veloster 18s if anyone is interested. They look nice and are in perfect shape. I'm just picky.

It's a complicated answer. Overall I have 7 sets of wheels that fit the Accent currently and I've sold one additional set. I have 4 vehicles which can use any of these 7 sets of wheels.

I still have my factory 17" I bought a set of factory 18's that came on later models (sold). still have my Audi 18's, and have my 17" Corvette Salad Shooters that I'm about to sell. Debating on buying a set of 16x7 for the tib, would be her first set.
