Default 15' rims where to purchase

I've been looking for some 15' rims, I check wheelmax and they only carry 16-20inch rims. Does anyone else know where to order or any shops in Southern California that have great prices like wheelmax?

eek. Aftermarket 15 inch rims would not look good on a 6th gen. I say just go one inch up!

iv never really liked 15" rims...kind of pointless...unless they stock. if you want light rims that would help you on a dyno test get some mag wheels. 15" are just plain oogly, esp on a '00 accord dont put your car through that torment.

my OEM alloys are all F*(#@ UP due to my great paralle parking skills hahaha I had replace all 4 tires 5 months ago with 90,000miles tires. I wanted to just get some new rims and put on the same tires on. I would like 17-18's but the tires are hella expensive.

nah man, you can get 17's and the tires wouldn't be expensive if you went with Hankook Ventus H405's, when I got my 17's, those tires were sticky, quiet, looked damn good, not to mention they were only like $85ea.

Hey VRGNCD5, did you get those at WheelMax? That's where I just ordered from, but haven't gotten them. I'm hoping that the offset is correct on the Exel Prime wheels that I got. When you specify your car, they tell you if the won't be the right offset, don't they?

get some volks....u can get 17" volks that weigh the same as your stock 15's and a set of nitto neo gen tires will only run u about 420 bucks....just shop around...order tires online, if u go someplace like sears, they'll try to charge u 1300 just for 4 tires..i know, they tried that shit with me...i got my 17" Volk Racing SE37K's and 215/45ZR17 nitto Neo Gen tires for 2800 total...not bad considering the volks list for between 575-635 per wheel before tax and shipping....good luck wheel hunting
