remember, your next set of tires are going to cost more than the wheels.. so why not get good wheels to begin with (and no, i'm not talking about $400 volks)

My goal isn't to not spend money, but some of us are on a budget. I want something better than steelies. There's never gonna be a time when I'm gonna be able to spend 1,000 bucks on wheels and tires so that's why I stated I'm on a budget. I use my car as a daily driver so I feel no reason to get $800 wheels or $600 tires.

i agree with you, and by "no money" i meant what you're looking to spend now.

a reputable wheel/tire combo (NEW) won't run over $800. so yes, that's more than you want to spend, but keep in mind, almost HALF of that is going toward tires (which is an expendable item) so it'd be a good idea to get a good wheel that will last (and you'll like) through another set of reputable tires.

for instance

or 4 of these http://www.good-win-racing.com/Mazda...61-030023.html

plus tires.

I guess I'll have to just keep on searching. I'm in college now so I only work part time and it's draining the money out of me. Plus with the economy I don't want to blow too much of my savings on wheels/tires so that's why I'm on a budget. I'll keep searching but if anyone finds or plans to sell their wheels/tires, pm me.

That's what I was going to recommend, or Scionlife (lol) for your area for some decent deals.
