well, everyone has their own opinion. i've said that on many different forums over the last 2 days. they might not go on the car til i can get different tires, it's whatever. the point is, i found some i like and now i have them and will get things together when i can.

Whatever floats your boat. I just don't get it... Tire Rack will sell you 15" rims and tires for $488, mounted and road-force balanced. These have a really dated style, seem to have a little rash and the tires are the wrong size. I'm guessing price was really the only concern.

dated style? maybe, but i won't see them on a hundred different cars when i go to shows. yeah, they are rough, but they will get worse with all the driving i do. wrong tire size? big deal, used tires are cheap.

yeah, money is a huge factor with me. i want to mod my car, but i don't have that much play room in my budget. since Jan i have been saving to get wheels of some kind.

Just wanted to point out that the center bore on Accents (pre-2006) is 54.1mm, not 67.1 as some sites claim. I've had this confirmed by 2 different wheel shops, and my own measurements.

Ya, the tires look kinda ghetto (mostly just dirty). What size are they? And what size are the rims? You should also try to hunt down the original center caps. It'll really clean up the look.
