Default New Chrome Rims

I got my new rims today and absolutly love them! Got them on Ebay (ebay store: eliteswholesale I paid $930 for the mixmatch set, which i tought was a great deal, believe me i shopped around. I really wanted to get 19's and 20's but by keeping the original sizes I was able to save $500 by using my original tires on the new rims. Tell me what cha think! Oh, and we tried painting behind the rim, it looks alright but i think it makes them look smaller and takes away from the chrome, so we repainted them black.

Hi,

did you have to use some spacers? and could you use the original bolts?

Looks good on the car, congrats....

Nope, no spacers, they even fit on my factory tires which saved me like $500. And no the factory bolts didnt fit, they either were too long, or not long enough, not sure. But the correct bolts should come with the rims, they forgot to send mine with my rims so when i went to have them installed they almost had to put my factory wheels back on, but luckily they(tire shop) had a used set, I just have to return them when my new ones come in. I called everywhere in town, tire shops to rim shops, nobody keeps these (bolts) sizes in stock, they could only order them. I think its the car because whenever i would say what i was looking for they said they should have it in stock until i told them what kind of car it was for. Hope this helps, good luck!
