Hey guys. I'm relatively new to the wheels thing, but I've decided that I really wanna upgrade from the stock steels on my 2009 base 1.8 in to something a little more attractive. I have a fondness of 5 spokes. But I have really no idea what I'm looking for as far as technical specs, can anyone throw some ideas out there about 5 spokes, what will work and what won't and so on and so forth. I'm probably looking to do all new tires, wheels, etc and keep the base wheels w/ covers for winters. Ideas are welcome.

Go to http://www.tirerack.comI'm not sure if any tires are listed for the 09's yet but here is the info you need-Tire: 205/55-16Wheel: 16 x 7 5-100 bolt patternTake a look at Sport Edition wheels, they are reasonably priced and have several 5 spoke designs. Watch the wheel weight, lighter is better.

Discount tire already has some listed for 2009
http://www.discounttire.com/dt...|2009But the "See it on your car" link doesn't bring up the correct model.

Same here. There is no way I'm throwing away 400$ on this... I'll survive the low-pressure warning light durign the winter.
