what kind of wheels will fit in my current 205/50R15 tires?
hello HT,
i am on a really tight budget, and i want my car looking semi decent... i would love to get some honda HX wheels or something along those lines, but will they fit the 205/50R15's i have right now?
where are some reputable places online that i can buy wheels? is edgeracing a good place?
also i was wondering what you guys thought of these wheels?
thx

HX wheels will not fit since they are 14"
For reputable places, check out our forum sponsors. Those wheels you posted look like Spoon replicas (similar to the Rota Slipstream) For Rotas check out the link in my sig

I'm going to go way out on a limb here, and tell you that the kind of wheels to look for are 15" wheels.
Seriously, though, you might want to look up the specs for the make and model tire you're using, either on the tire manufacturer's website or the website of a dealer like the Tire Rack, to check on the range of approved rim widths. That will tell you what width to look for. In general, you want something like a 15x6.5 or a 15x7. A 205/50-15 will often fit on a 15x6 but it may look like it bulges out and handling may not be quite as crisp as on a wider wheel.
Incidentally, most people decide on wheels first, then get tires to fit if they need to - since they will be keeping the wheels for a long time, through many sets of tires...
