    You can get some decent deals on eBay. Just look for Civic or Integra wheels.

    For tires...I got Falken Ziex 512s for about $260 from a Wheel works here. www.falkentires.com sells 205/50/15 for about $48bucks each. I love these tires and I would reccomend to anyone who wants performance all season tires on a budget. Goodluck on your search!

    i know i know believe me everyone encourages me to get bigger rims the problem is i have a carburated automatic lx. its sluggish enough as it is the heliums are like 11.5 pounds. i really do not want extra weght. and not to mention i want more tire between rim and road. i live in newhampshire winters are pretty harsh up here. i need some killer tread tires. i do love the falkens.im gonna keep searching till i find iether the heliums or somthing simular. still open to suggestion though if any body knows of some cheap rims they think would look good on a 3gee link me up.

    I think it's a great idea to have a really light wheel with decent sidewall for a good ride. 15's are definately a step-up from the pathetic 13's....
