I'm talking about pic-a-part. They once tried to charge me $80 for a power window motor. I told them a brand new one at the dealer was $95. He had the nerve to tell me I was saving $15. I left it on the counter.

I know where you are talking about. I was going to school for the guard once a month up there before I went full time with them. They have a Reserve Center in the middle of HUGE salvage yards.

Vehicle: 02 Hyundai Accent
I snagged 2 07 Accent alloy rims, the 16x6.5 5 star pattern. They are going up front after I find some tires for them, in the mean time I have one painted semi gloss black and the other is ready to spray 2morrow. Hope to have them on by the end of the week. I stuck them on an 02 accent they had at the recyclers and the clearance seems good despite the fact they say there a +47mm offset and the hub is a perfect fit. Next month I will pick up 2 more for the rear but I have to put the rear Accent hubs back on to change back to a 4x100 pattern. Question is do I redrill the rear Tibby rotors to a 4x100 pattern or search for a rotor with the right pattern and same dimmensions.

got my wheels today. $170 for the set.
gotta get better weather to clean them up and put them on, but i think they will look good.

Can't see the size but the tires look too big. Could just be how it's sitting against the car though I guess.
They also look like the rubber has seriously dry rotted, but it's hard to tell that for sure too.
