    Is this a decent deal?

    I found some ASA's 15'' for $550 with rubber sound good?

    If they are in good shape with no major dents or scratches I would say its a deal.

    But going to a large wheel doesn't necessarily give you better traction in the snow just because you have more rubber on the ground. sometimes stock size tires work better in snow, and if they're in canada... i bet there is snow on the ground plus not everyone can afford bigger wheels and it's a matter of preference too.

    what are you talking about Bryan?? 15's RULE. Its JDM y0!!

    IMO 15's are perfectly acceptable wheel size for the 3g. I guess it really depends on the look you're going for.

    Alright so there might be some exceptions, I have to admit some 15's look pretty good but i'm not a fan of them. And CYRIC ACCORD why the hell would you run rims in the winter?!?!?!?!? Put your stock steelies back on.

    Because my friend is running a set 15" Moda R1s wrapped in Bridgestone Blizzak LM-22s and they grip a HELLUVA lot better than my 14" steelies with brand-new Cobra GT Radials... notice how some cars come stock with alloy rims, they obviously don't have steelies that they throw on during winter.

    But the snow/salt will carrode the rims right? I would rather put my steelies back on then spend the money to replace my rims.

    Here's the thread you started about them, damn you made a lot of posts... sifting through 500 threads is not fun B! but none of the pics work

    And steelies can rust just the same as rims... rims just are expensive and can get damaged/scratched up from winter driving.
