Some lightweight, Stylish wheels for my car..?

[madking411]

what should i get?? I think some/most of yall already know what kind of car ive got and what it looks like on the outside, but for those of you that dont know....Im drivin a white sunfire, 1996, thats slammed to the ground, has tinted tails,tinted turn signals, no wing, and has all the side moulds removed...Now, im wonderin, what kind of wheels should i get for it to make the car turn a whole new leaf, but that are still nice n lightweight so that i still have somewhat of an advantage when im racing??

Im lookin for 16's or 17's

There's no point in racing (straight line or highway atleast) unless you have a boosted Eco...But check out some Motegi traklites and upgrade your suspension because I don't know of a good spring/strut combo that has you car slammed. That's unless you're rocking Tein or GroundControl coilovers or Bilsteins....

honestly...buy a another car. Keep this as beater.

+1, why start with something so low down on the rung when for a very small investment more, you could at least start with a car that has a little something out of the box.

It IS a beater though....Its just a beater that i wanna have built somewhat

and as far as ''outta the box'', i've got more ''outta the box'' than what a civ has

But for the price of the wheels you want, you could sell your car and add the wheel money to your profit and buy a Miata, or 240, or something.

This is true...I AM kinda lookin for a new car, but theres a couple holdups that i have basically no control over that are preventin me from gettin somethin else...cuz i wanna 5-speed BADD...i became addicted to it when i test-drove one for the 1st time

yeah, I'm just trying to give advice that I feel would be the best in your situation, a Sunfire with wheels is less appealing than a 90s Japanese 2+2 with stock wheels. If you must go with something, I've always loved BBS RS GTs or some form of knockoff (they make a ton)

yea get a miata...itll change your life.

I agree with everyone else...I think you should sell your car and take the $1,300 that KBB says it's worth and take the ~$800.00 that you would spend on some new shoes and get a car that has mods to offer and responds well to mods (miata, 240, teg, civic, etc.) just my 2cents man. Not dissin on your car or nothing (we all have had beaters) but they just don't have a well established aftermarket parts market.

I want one, but its not practical for me...too small....i need to have a car thats about something like a 2+2....or a hatch...

EVERYONE SHOULD SELL THEIR CARS AND BUY A MIATA OR A 240...
