what wheels do you have? ebay might be the place to look...or craigslist...i was looking for a 14" slot mag to match my others so i can actually have a spare tire...there was one a few miles away for $30, but didn't really have the money at the time, no bids on it, seller never relisted and i never saw it pop up on craigslist or anything else

Well i have a full matching set of some older (i think) American racing 5 spoke rims that are 16X8.What i wanted to do is get a bigger size for the rear,it can be 16 but i wanted them wide.This way i could always switch back to the regular matching back set.I also have a full set that i know are American Racing rims,not sure of the size but they are huge in general.These were what originally came on my car when i bought it,they made my car so high up.So basically I have two choices to get a bigger rear size wheels and them be matching.I have been on craigslist everyday looking,not too many people selling just two back wheels and when there is they are all out drag racing wheels with slicks on them for 200 and up.I don't really care if the rims are sorta rusty as long as they are usable.I just want the old school look of big wheels on the back,and the stance.Ill have to check ebay....
