around here there like 250 with a good set of tires.

 

so would you say im gettin a pretty good deal then? only reason for selling is because of my skunk2 suspension and i dont want to rub on the 17s

Hawaii's prices are always inflated.

 

in L.A. there about 200-250 with great tires

 

so that plus the $260 dollar sub.. idk if id be gettin a good deal then

 

go for it . u get sounds and faster car becuase of smaller/lighter wheels

 

ya im thinkin that i have two cheap tens .. but this would free up some space for a rear strut bar to go across the back hatch area... are the fat fives a light wheel? and anyone have pics on a hatch like mine

 

The fat fives would look better than what you have now anyway, so I say do it.

 

ya i think especially if it was lowered which it will be in a coupe weeks when i get around to puttin my stuff on.. can i keep my locking lugs for these rims? or would i need new ones

 

Your ganna have to get special lug nuts for stock rims.

 

do they make locking ones that fit?

 

Yeah, go to autozone for lug nuts, or maybe even a local tuner shop. But make sure they give you the ones for stock rims.

 

ok ya i have the tilt sensor on my alarm already but i like the added security of the locking lug nuts thanks for all the help i think im gonna do the trade any of you guys have pics of these on an eg i tried searching the A/C forum but didnt find any

 

Some look better than others...

 

thats true ... just got pics and the wheels are 5 spoke del sol wheels not exactly the same thing

 

im rockin steelies for now.

 

post up the pics of those wheels and we can photoshop them onto your car so you can see if you like them, i mean ultimately it is up to you ya know. so if you like them better than what you have go for it, but it is your choice.

personally i would do it b/c those 17's aren't gonna ride well with a lowered ride, plus i think they don't look too good anyway.

 

ya found out the wheels are 14 inch del sol si wheels.. not gsr fat fives so i dont think im gonna do that trade anymore but he also has 16s with 215-40-16 tires would these fit on my car? im afraid they are too wide

 

wow. around where i live. fat five sometimes goes for 100...... if the seller is hella disperate

 

anybody know if i can fit a 215 40 16 tire the wheels are pretty nice but i dont wanna have to get new tires

 

F5's with good tires go for around 250 if theyre mint. not my favorite alloy tho...

 

Not trying to jack your thread...and this is a little off topic but how much do ep3 wheels go for? And as far as the trade goes, I would do it, just to get rid of those 17s...
