Big_Bird

Of the three? The first one but I don't like any of them personally.

tcdriver2006

can you give me a link to some that would look good on a $1,000 budget?

TheQuietThings

I would say to keep the stocks as well.

tcdriver2006

no, I'm tired of the stock rims If you had to pick from these which ones would you pick>?

Id pick springs before any wheels man. dont buy new wheels without your car already dropped.

get whichever wheel you like and not what others like as alot might not like either one because of the brand being cheap as well as the rims itself, but in the end it's your car and your the one paying for it and seeing it everyday as well as crusing in it.

^x2 is that $1k including tires? Of the 3 I like the middle but if you have $1K check the classifieds for a local set! There is always a ton of good stuff in there!

^x3 its your car buy what you like you are the one that has to live with what you buy

i say drop it first then get the second set. lowering my monster truck was one of my favorite mods

tcdriver2006

IMHO, wheels are kind of a big decision, especially if you're 18. I am assuming you don't have a lot of cash and worked hard for you money. Take some time and really figure out what you want. It took me nearly two years to find a set of wheels I liked and I am glad I waited and researched. Impulse buys are usually regrettable pretty quickly. Take your time here homey.

mossfan15

totally agree with what big bird said. save up and get the set u really want. dont settle because honestly the stockies look good on ur tc

I am wholeheartedly behind the above.

Wheels are as expensive an upgrade as doing performance work and shouldn't be taken any less lightly.

In addition to the aesthetics of the wheels, there is technical things to consider (width, offset, caliper clearance, lowering height, tire thickness, etc) all of which will play into whether or not you have to replace your wheels sooner rather than later due to bad fitments leading to damage and ultimately either repair (expensive) or replacement (even more expensive)

I am like the quoted person above where I've been searching for exactly the right wheels that I want. Sometimes, things are close, but just dont 'feel' right. Impulse buying for expensive things are bad.

Of the options you presented, personally, I like the Konig's ya got there, but don't base your choice on what I (or anyone else) recommends.

Thanks everyone!

Agreed. When making your decision, you should also place into consideration whether you want a performance wheel or just something for show because if you want performance, weight could be a factor. All in all, one of the most important factors is that quality counts, you really do get what you pay for.
