Talking Rims

How much do rims generally cost? I saw groharlem had some nice ones. I want to get some but I don't want to spend like $900 on some rims. That's a lot of money for some metal.

Talking Bodykits

Also, does anyone have any side pics of the EVO Bumper? I always just see the front pics and I'm wondering to death what it looks like from the side. I'll definitely get it if it looks good. BTW, are there any new kits for the protege out? And mazdaspeedwest, what rims do you got on your protege/how much were they? They kick ***.

The rims that I wanted (Enkei RSF2s) in 16" wrapped with Kumho Ecsta Supra 712s were like $900 shipped, so that's not too bad. A good place to go is www.whalentire.com, they have a lot of good deals and great service.

hmm

Well I found some online... I'll probably pay around $600 max w/tax. But I'm still deciding.

I found some good rims. I'm just going to get the same ones MazdaSpeedWest got. Call me a biter or whatever but our two cars will never cross paths so who cares. There's probably a billion other people with the same rims. That's what theyre for anyways
