thoughts?

I've got a guy in san jose who wants to buy my ****ty rims for ~500.. now I have nothing else to ride on, so what should i do? keep my rims and save up like 2 grand, maybe not be able to sell them again, or buy some stockers for cheap sell mine, and save up? or borrow some stockers for a couple of months?

Evan...

Unless you plan to get rims that are the correct width/offset, I wouldn't bother getting another set of aftermarket wheels. At this point, I would probably sell off you current wheels and get a set of OEM 19's. Ride those until you get the funds for a set of aftermarket wheels

Evan, I still got my OEM 19's. The rears are almost done with, but should be good enough to last until you can get your new rims. Let me know if you wanna borrow 'em... but I do need them back since my TPMS are still in those rims and not my new ones yet.

^ how long would i be able to use them for? it's probably going to take me a while to save up $1200 since i've got a couple bills, and selling my rims would leave me with another ~550.. do you think i can get a better price than 550 for my wheels?

I just dont think you should spend money on wheels that aren't going to fit right (too tucked in). Don't get me wrong, OEM 19's will fit tucked in but they are OEM wheels.
