Discount Tire is having a 100.00 coupon sale, so I decided to buy some new rims. Since my tires are new(15s) I thought these rims would look good until the tires wear out then I will go to 17s.
 
4 rims, accessories, total came to $185.16. Woo Hoo.  I received the rims today. 2 correct ones and 2 wrong ones(wrong mfg.)  Called DT no problem will p/u rims Mon. and ship out correct ones Mon.  Shipping dept must have been sleeping on my order.

Wow! That's a great deal, Dennis! I assume they have the correct back-spacing and all, and will clear the brake calipers? Adams' Apple2007-10-19 19:45:38
