Rim question

My suggestion is that you find a nice set of used wheels here in the classified section.
edit: Take a look at the wheels in there. They are ALL listed as either FWD or SUV wheels. I guarantee you that they do NOT have any staggered wheel set-ups and they'll only have an extremely limited number of offsets available. Those likely will not fit well on your car.

PVMIKE I really dont want to buy used wheels. Thanks for the info though.
Man im really liking what BLUELEX had at the florida meet pix...thats nice!...dont worry i wont copy
I went to another place today and was quoted $2200 for 19" ADR DESIGN X FACTOR chrome wheel w/ good year EAGLE F1 255/40/19 tires. They had alot of other choices to consider.
I may NOT go with 20's as before and end up getting 18 or 19. Heres another consideration:

Hey man, I see you have been shopping around!! Any particular reason why you dont want to do 20s anymore?
Also you will find that ADR is not a top brand, and some may bag on it, but in my opinion if you like them, get them and be happy that all there is to it! There are a couple members on this board that have them, and maybe they can chime in on the durablility of them etc etc.
Also in that price range are Axis, which is a little better quality than ADR, go to superbuytires.com and just browse through all of their wheels, you can even sort them by size.

Well actually i have time off so im just looking around. NOT buying yet
I defintaly want chrome. And i decided that i will go for 19's it seems like that the 20's will rub.. ADR does not look bad.
BTW what is "staggering" I see that word come alot.

2 things ....20's won't rub if u get the right offset wheel....many members here including myself have 20's and we r dropped low with no rubbing.. i don't rub at all and am about 1.75 lowered mayb around there even with people in the car i don't rub
2nd. staggard is when u have wider wheels in the rear than in the front 2 give the car a more aggressive look... most people do a 20x8.5 fron 20x10 rear....thats what i'm running...plus tires is a big part aswell... u'll need a 245/35/20 front tire so that u won't rub in the front and an offset of about 35-45 so u won't rub as well .. don't shy away from the 20's ...a lot of people love 2 put fear into people let some of the people who've done the set ups help out and let u know that it can b done with no major work needing 2 b done...

I have been researching wheels for someone, and he wants 18" chrome staggered for a SC, his budget is about the same as yours. The 92-00 SC has very shallow wheelwells, so you need to run offsets in the 40's to be
Think about suits, if you buy off the rack, you can PROBABLY get something that FITS, but it may have too much fabric in the shoulders, or the sleeves may be a little to long. If you go get it tailored, it will be much better. Those lower end companies only have the suit thats ON THE RACK so you have to either deal with the loose fitting shoulders or get another suit!!!
Dont worry man, you have time! Keep on truckin'!
