millenium wheels are making me crazy, the black 1 looks great but less impressive when installed !
silver looks fair, and more agressive when installed !

That "wheel" will not survive the street of Chicago, each pothole is like a landmine for that "wheel". does look good for show purpose.

yeah i read about them awhile ago. There suppose to be glass-reinforced plastic. Its suppose to be as strong as carbon fiber, but lighter and cheaper to produce.

I know its being researched as one of the materials to eventually replace aluminium and tensil steel in cars due to the raise cost in both commodities.

...a panty dropper...
I dont think the 245 tires are going to fit. I think the max is 240 on the W203s.

you can go up to 265 in the rears but 235 is basically the max in the front without rubbing.

I'm running 235's all around and i only rub a little bit on U turns.

Winter rims

Hey, I was wondering where i can find a set of cheap steel rims to use with my snow tires. I obviously need them to match up to my +35mm lug offset a and a 5 - 112mm bolt pattern. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

how cheap is cheap? you could get some of those cheapie ebay wheels that are always on there. or possibly some used/beat up stoc wheels from someone on here, ebay, or local salvage yard.

a quarter mile at a time
also going to depend on if you have a 2004 or a 2004.5. If you have a 2004.5, you'll need at least 17" wheels.
