Hey, been all over the net looking for some used 16 or 17 inch alloy wheels with some all season rubber installed. Figured Id look here too...

  • Wheels need to be 4x114.3 bolt pattern (4x100 & 114.3 universal is ok too), and between 35-45 offset
  • Tires need to be All Season, and good tread (approx 75% or better)

The boss controls the pocketbook where cash over a few C notes is concerned, so these have to check the boxes...Good tires being the big one, and looking decent - not curbed to hell, or orange is another one.

Looking to spend less than $350. Wutchyagot?

I have a "set" of six wheels, four Eagles (one broken) and two I-forget-which, all 17x7 and IIRC 40 or 45 offset. The Eagles are six spoke and the others are seven spoke and I was planning on running the seven spoke on one side and the six on the other. 225/45-17 Continental all-seasons with about 6/32 tread.

Trying to fit them on my VW was... comical.

Interested?

I have a set of 16s which have tires on them, but the tires are OLD.

and I'm in Ohio

Find me an aluminum front bumper support for a Fox Rustang and they're yours

Take a magnet to the local junkyard this weekend maybe

I appreciate the offers guys. Im really needing rubber though, as the magical white dust will soon fall from the sky, transforming your typically inept sheeple drivers into deadly horsemen of the apocalypse.

I need tires more than I want wheels. Id love to get some good looking wheels in the deal, but overall, if it comes down to it, $350 will buy really decent All seasons, and I can just settle for huge sidewalls on my stock 15's.

I will keep you 2 in mind though if I cant come up with anything.

Anyone else?

Oh, I was thinking more like $200 + a little for fuel.

Thanks for keeping me in mind! That Guy is active in the g20.net forums, so I've been keeping those in mind in case I can't find anything else. I know I'm being picky, but ideally I'd like to find something with more tread...if worse comes to worse, I can always just use my budget on new all seasons and call it a day...I just really want shorter sidewalls and taller rims LOL.

I could maybe even trade you the 16s off my '01 Sentra SE for your g20 snowflakes. You would probably still want to get new tires. I just really want taller sidewalls and shorter rims LOL.

edit: Seriously though, I'm not kidding.

The wheels look like:

Which would give you:

And me:

I already have a set of the G20 snowflakes for snow tires, why not go for a second?

I can get you actual pictures this afternoon.
