Where can I find some good wheels?

Got something for sale? Need to sell a part? Got some stuff on auction that you want to let us know about?

Where can I find some good wheels?

Post by jnorion »

Okay, the question is not quite as stupid as that. I am desperately in need of new tires (mine are 175s and nearly bald), and I want some wider and nicer looking wheels. I keep seeing people talk about getting wheels from a newer Legacy or WRX or something for $50-$100... where are you finding these deals?? I can't find anything like that... even the local U-pull-it wants ~$100 per wheel.

You got to get lucky.....

Personally, I paid (traded) $500 for new WRX rims and tires.

EBAY has stuff all the time for $300-$400

Also try craigslist.

I also got wheels/tires from a guy on NASIOC. Keep your eyes peeled for local folks if you don't want to pay for shipping.
