Talking New Rims!!!!

I just ordered some new rims for my eclipse!!! Here's a link for some pics. http://www.wheelguyz.com/shop/detail...5&cat=64&path=
Pretty decent price but they did charge $100 fo mounting and balancing, yet they gave me a $100 gas card . 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.

Re: New Rims!!!!

Re: New Rims!!!!

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.

Re: New Rims!!!!

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