I just ordered some new rims for my eclipse!!! Here's a link for some pics. http://www.wheelguyz.com/shop/details.asp?prodid=ZR-5&cat=64&path=
Pretty decent price but they did charge $100 fo mounting and balancing, yet they gave me a $100 gas card :screwy: . I wouldn't have gotten rims but my old ones look shitty and the front left is bent so bad te car shakes at low speeds.

I got 17's, personally i think 18's are a bit too big on our cars.

Ohh on another note. I might be interested in that motor in your sig. Depending on how much it would cost to ship it to san diego cali

SO WAIT....if your car shakes pretty badly at low speeds that is due to a bent rim??? Because my cavalier from 10-20 mph has a VERY noticable shake

That could be either a flat spot or unbalanced wheels. Possibly alignment is bad also.

The wheels in my signature are 18's, IMO anything less than 17/18 on our cars look to small.

Depends on what you want to do, if you dont plan on doing much racing throw what ever rim you want to on. If you like going in a straight line I personally would'nt go bigger than a 17". Bigger than that the wheels get to heavy and your running on rubberbands. Rubberband= No traction. Its all about having some meat in the sidewall so it will crumple and grab instead of being super hard and spinning. that my personal opinion though. ;)

Definately, if i tracked this thing more than once a year i would put some 16's and some radials on it.

Well thats why my car shakes could be different with your car. My old rim is bent very badly. I can actually see the tire is mishapen by the rim being so bent, so yeah it's probably not too safe to drive on.
