insurance cashout left me with some extra cash, plus i'll be working as soon as i get back from school so i'm lookin to get some summer mods. im looking for a set of 4x100 rims and tires in good condition but dont want to pay more than 500 dollars or so. also looking for projectors and possibly an HID kit for the projectors if anyone has them for sale.

i have a black balt and am looking preferrably for black wheels but i'll consider almost anything.

 

bump

 

hey I have a set of my old rims and tires

one has a little scuff on them though but i might be able to fix it also we could meet for a pickup .. also if you're looking for black you could just as easily paint them and then the small scuff isn't there lol

 

thanks for the offer but i'm looking more for something aftermarket, as i'll keep my stock wheels for the winter.

haha then you're probably not getting rims and tires for 500

check craigs list as well

 

oh gee whiz thanks..
i've been looking online but i wanted to check out what's for sale here because maybe i can find a good deal but hey thanks for the advice anyway

i'm willing to pay more, i've seen some go on here for less and i have had friends buy theirs for less also. figured it was worth a shot.

 

the only way you're getting anything for under 500 is if you do local pickup and you're probably not going to find the nicest rims with tires for that price..

because in general a set of aftermarket rims and tires cost 1K

 

Don't cheap out on tires.

A good set of tires will yield more than many other mods.

 

yeah im tempted to just pick up a new set of falkens but i can't decide between the sceptor and the torque

sceptor: http://www.edgeracing.com/images/whe...angle_zoom.jpg
these are for a black balt that will soon be dropped and tinted

 

Get the R compounds if you get the rims


highperformancetire.com has good prices

 

best be dropping tht before rims =)

 

well i photo shopped a black balt with gunmetal torque 5's.. i love my torque 5s but i got them for a spankin good deal and mine were still 425 for the rims..

very true.. i got my prices from there and sears price matched it for my rims and tires.. i got my whole package for like 300 off.. and it was still 937

 

For like 1100 I got ASA JH8 with BFG KDW-IIs

 

yeah i have 1000 dollars to spend on mods right now and my original plan was cheapish wheels + projectors + more but i might just get rims and a short shifter and wait til the summer to get other ****. but right now im leanin towards just gettin a brand new set of falkens with tires

 

my opinion would be take it .. rims and tires.. lower it.. and get an ebay short throw .. you'll run like 1200 or so .. but still paint your headlight housing black.. and leave the lip chrome.. then you'll have a styling balt.. oh yea and tint the tails

 

that's what im thinkin i just need to find a place to get my springs put in (too afraid to do it myself, nothing ever works out for me)

 

trust me springs aren't hard.. i'm sure someone on hear wouldn't mind helping you.. shops will charge 200-400 bux for a spring install..

 

I know of someone in North Jersey who is helping me out.

Just ask around the forum man.

 

thanks guys i'll post in the local section and see if anyone can help me out

 

how far away from my area are you? i did my own.. and whats your tool selection look like?

 

like 4 hours away and i dont have many tools here, i'm 19 and this is the first car i've modded, and my dad doesn't do much mechanical stuff so i don't have a ton of tools but usually i can figure something out to make it work

 

ahh ***** i was gonna say i'd do it for you
