Help! I slammed a pot hole and destroyed 2 rims on my 04 Aveo. I hammered them back so they would hole air but thats just a temp fix. Has anyone put real rims on theirs? Mine are the stock steel rims. Thanks!

well im runnin 17s on mine but ive seen elsewhere on the net of people claimin 18s but i aint so sure bout 18s cus as it is i dont have much clearance in my tire well. but it is entirely possible. i would recomend no bigger than 17s tho.

Don't forget changing tire sizes will also make your speedo off. Larger tires means you are going faster than the speedo says.

you can fit 18s if yu go to a 35 side wall and you dont have to change teh speedobut you might want to up the calipers just for braking emergenciesanyone who dose bigger rims should always do the brakes roters expecially if your going 3 to 4 sizes bigger..the rims will roughin up the ride but lookis damn great
the bolt patern is 4 by 100 mm
i am running enkei RZ - 5
but there is cheapers ones made by core racing that almost look the same

i had i beleive 205/45/r17 on my rims and i had to downsize to 205/35/r17s because there was not enuff room up front when i turned. i aint to sure if those are the right sizes or not but just keep in mind when doin this to keep a small enuff tire because the tires would rub on the inside and ate the s$*t out of my tires. just more food for thought. altho the 45s looked better cus it gave the car a more lowered look.
