Summer is soon approaching , and all of us are excited to get the rims on and actually wash the car and have it not covered with salt/sand in two minutes lol .
HISTORY : When I bought my car (2006) , it came with stock 15" steelies and hub caps w00t w00t.
In 2007 I bought 18" koenig rims Gunmetal with a chrome lip (Which have minor curb rash and chrome polish is starting to come off ;(
(PICS >>>>> http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2623203/3 ****ignore window sticker I took it off lol )
Here is the dilemma...... both my 18" and 15" need tires. What should I do?
Option 1: Sell the 18" and pick up some OEM Stock 3 rims with rubber for $500-$600 and use the 15" in the winter.
Option 2 : Sell both and pick up some stock rims and rubber and use all season
Option 3: Fix up the 18" and get rubber , and use current 15" for winters, and buy rubber later.
I've saved up $1000 for this problem of mine. If you were in my situation and your 18s are not in the greatest of shape what would you do? Keep in mind also where I park my car for work has theft issues every week with break ins, I just started this job and I know the rims may make it a target) So do I go back to stock? And yes I know my car is a monster truck I'm getting springs in the summer as well no matter what the outcome lol.
Please every opinion is welcome :) I just want to come to a final decision and get this solved. Most of you have probably gone through this and would love to hear what you have done. Thanks for your time and input
