Rims - opinions please!

Hey Everyone,

I want to pick up a set of 14” rims for my car…
I’ve narrowed it down to two rims…so…help me narrow it down to one!

Cheers,
Nick

Larger = more $$$
Believe me – I’d throw 20z on there if I had the cash.
(plus - I have a place that can get me either one of these 14z for a VERY good price)

Thanks for the opinions guys – keep em commin!

ps. thanks for moving the post eTiMaGo

15's are very, very cheep you may want to ask about those before commiting to the 14's, 15's give you a wide range of options, and most of the time 14's and 15's cost the same or with in a few $ of each other for wheels and tires

regaurdless, my vote is for the 6 spoke, I like the more open wheels

I would go with the 5 star...

yea I would be sticking with stock tires – so that’s a big reason I wanted to do 14s.
I’m a fulltime university student who commutes to and from school, and in my four month summer I work full time to pay for my schooling…so…I don’t have that much money

i'd go with the 5-spoke rims. but it'll look even better in a satin or gunmetal finish.

14's are a waste of $$, go with 15's w/195 50 15. Check the prices of
14" tires, you will pay more

silver seems to be my only option as far as colours go…
size wise - i’m using the stock tires...plus, everywhere i’ve checked, 14” tires are extremely cheap.
