so, im looking for some cheap wheels, and when i say cheap, i mean CHEAP! otherwise i might just paint the stockers black:rice:

whats out there that looks half decent (oem honda, etc.)? yeah yeah i know that pretty much any 4x100 will work, but what could i pickup that'd look decent?

fat fives are cool...it'd be nice to find a cheap set of slipstreams or something.

anyone got pics of a 3rd gen with slips?

i love tose rota slips.. there are so many knock-off versions of it thought, i think that steelies with a polished lip look decent though, do not I say DO NOT those old CRX wheels the 4 holed ones... , but slips look sick

mostly anything by rota is cheap. shit you can find different sets of wheels for 490 shipped to your door step! and by different sets i mean brand spanking new slips,c8's, gt3's so on and so forth.

Take a look at Rota Circuit 8s. I think those might look good.

painting your stock steelies is another option. for a cost of 5 bucks i think its worth it until you can afford some rims.
