I need cheap aftermarket wheels for my vibe gt. I don't have alot more money to spend and dont have a job because Im taking physics this summer at school so i dont have to take it next year . Anyone know a cheap, good looking setup? I dont really care about names or chrome or anything i just want different good looking wheels. Maybe 16's so i can use the stock tires to save more $$?

Keep in mind, unless you can do it yourself, you gotta find someone to mount, balance, and then reinstall the wheels...meaning less money per wheel because of the cost associated with that...But I agree...I'd love to get some great rims, but money is tight, and then it's an issue of finding someone to mount, balance, and reinstall the new wheels, for a good price. Yikes, the financial pains of car ownership and customization!

I don't have alot more money to spend and dont have a job whats wrong with the stock wheels untill you get a job? or have more money. buying cheap wheels will only lead to unhappiness down the road. save you pennies and get the wheels you want when you can afford them. if you spend all your money on cheap excesories (spelling error) you won't have any money for all those babes that want to go out with a cool dude who owns a VIBE GT

Well yea, im not into looks i just want different wheels. Like thats not a major thing. I dont want wings or body kit or chrome wheels or any of that stuff, just wheels and maybe springs.

Its prolly better to wait till ya have a job then you will be able to afford wheels that you will like, instead of having to settle on something- just my opinon though

Anyone know what the average shop would charge for removal of the old wheels, dismounting, remounting, balancing, and reinstallation of new rims?Just curious...I saw a really sweet rim on tires.com that I'm interseted in, but it depends on what it will cost me to get that rim on the car...

I don't know what you consider cheap but I got these Mille Miglia Evo 5s from Tire Barn for $689 installed. I was able to sell my stock wheels for $225. I am using the original tires. I like the look a lot more than stock. I even got some Pontiac decals to put in the centers. Hope this helps.
