I have 14s...on the Subaru. I can't really complain about the rims on my car...they were on it when I bought it.

I had gotten prices off the internet, after calling 5-7 shops locally, no one was even close to the prices I had gotten from the internet, with the cheapest being a place called Whalen Tire. So I called a local store, whom I had never dealt with before, and asked them to match the prices, which they did ( a difference of over $500 ), and gave me better tires to boot. I would rather go to a local place and pick them up, then wait for them to come and god forbid be damaged. Plus its always good to get in on the local shops good side, they even threw in a set of locks. I simply asked them as if it was a question: "how come I can mail order them and they are so much cheaper, cant you guys do better? I would rather buy them locally if I could get a better price "

I liked that site cause you can see the rims on the car. The only thing is you are limited to the rims they have. And they don't have a great selection compared to other places. It is fun to play around and see different rims on your car.

Yeah, I can go to Les Schwab and use their machine there to see what rims look good on my car. Thats how I kill time waiting for them to finish working on my car.
