I like the #5 option. I have those MB's in a 15 inch on my Yaris 5 door with the stock tires.

or look at my thread about wheels the FN01rc's
Could you elaborate?

What's wrong with Drag wheels? And the MB's you suggested are actually the cheapest at Discount Tire. The Drag's are a step up.

Not necessarily. Honestly, I don't know much about rims as far as quality ratings, and such. Really, I shop for style, price, and of course fitment.

I do want to know specifics of what you are suggesting though. Thanks.

Sorry, my life doesn't revolve around wheels.

And yet you say wheels are wheels.

And the wheels you linked me to are tiny 15's. I would just stay with my stock steelies if I were staying that small. Plus, I don't care for the design.

I do appreciate suggestions but I wasn't looking to be talked out of the wheels I posted. Just wanted to see which one people liked the best.

One thing about wheels, no one can agree.

good luck in your quest for the mediocre
Like I said, I appreciate your suggestions and there's no need to leave the thread. I originally asked you why the wheels I posted sucked. I definitely would like to know. I didn't even know they were made in Thailand.

I'm getting 17's (minimally 16's if I go for slightly better practicality). I know you're all about width, but I don't care about width. I'm more concerned with diameter.

Could you suggest quality 17" wheels under $110 (and I didn't see any MB's I like)? Design is my #1 priority.

I'd like to remain friendly.
