Wheel Reccomendations
Well winter is slowly slowly coming to an end (hurry up please!!!) haha and I want to get new wheels for my summer tires as all I have right now are steelies with hubs. I don't want to spend a ton (like at max 120$ a wheel) I like the look of the bronze wheels, or even a nice silver one. I have never bought rims before so my knowledge is very limited hence coming to you guys :D Oh! I want to keep my 14" tires as well, so 14" wheels is what I'm looking for.
thanks in a advance for the help! |

Now would be a good time to upgrade to 15"s. 14" wheels are on their way out plus your options are very limited. 15" ride so much better and they look better too.
Tire rack and Discount tire are good places to start. You can always look for tire/wheel combo packages for cheap. |

i personally pick up all my wheels/tires used from forums or kijiji.com
i think i have about 4 or 5 sets of wheels/tires sitting around right now (winters are on both cars right now) 4x100 bolt pattern wheels from just about any car will fit. check out the CASC forum, kijiji, torontocivics.com, jdmrides.ca, and toyotanation.com for wheels....lots of stuff always for sale....and often cheap

bB2ner, the car came with brand new 14" tires so I want to get a couple of years out of them before I switch to 15" unless its an amazing deal.
Barber thanks for all the Canadian sites! I'll give them a look :) |

Yeah, def wait till the 14s are used up then upgrade to 15s. Or get some nice 15" wheels and tires for the summer and save the 14" steelies and hubcaps for winter duty.
