Default Cheap 16" steel wheels that fit xB???

Anyone know where I can find a 16" steelie that will allow me to run 205/16 on an xB?

I need to upgrade tires but I don't really want to spend $$$ on wheels right now ( I don't care much about bling obviously)

I'll need a 4 lug 16" steel wheel I guess....

Help?

Thnx!

16" rota slipstream !!

you can use your stock tires if you want on them, depending on if your going to drop your car you may need to get new tires.

i get these rims for $91 a peice but i work at discount tire im not sure how much they go for retail

i also noticed that i have damage on another piece of the bumper. how does the supplement work? i get a complete estimate before i get it fixed? and send it to the insurance? or after i get it done? send them the total cost.

The wheel (rim) specs you need to look for are:

4-100

Translation:
4 bolt
100 mm spacing
6.5" wide wheel

you can go 7 inch wide too. or go "JDM" with some 9 or 9.5 but then u need different offset. like a 15 offset. not not stinking 40 or 42 like you could on a 7" and narrower rim

Googled those. They look nice for sure! My main goal here is to fit better tires on my car (performance) while spending as little as possible on wheels (mostly appearance). I recognize that lighter wheels can contribute slightly to handling and acceleration but I'm interested in seeing how much I might save if I just ran a 16" steel wheel with the high performance rubber I'd like to have versus paying extra for alloy rims...

Gotcha... 4-100.

7 inch widith sounds about right for a 205 or 215 series tire, don't you think?
