Well the potholes in cedar falls really tore the shit out of my wheels this semester up here so I'm just looking for a decent set without bends for the summer, paint and all can be in poor condition as long as they aren't terribly ruined.

I was planning to grab a set of Evo 8's if I could but just decided I'd rather stay cheap for now.

Considering what I've paid in the past, for wheels (ie $80 to Sleeping for the wheels pictured below, with great tires) I hope people won't be insulted but I'm really not looking to spend much more on anything unless it's a nice set of 2g GST wheels. Not that I expect to get a deal as good as Sleeping gave me, as that was a total steal - but just throwing it out there that I'm being a cheapass here and if I can't find anything I'll just stay on my beat up stockers.

If they have tires on them great, if not - no big deal. Pretty much only want 16" wheels.

Ideally would like to get a set of stock 1g talons like these I got from Sleeping a couple years back.

Then would definitely consider 2g GST wheels as well such as these.

But I'll consider anything that isn't beat up, just mostly like the looks of the two above.

FYI, if you are referring to Adam. His user name is Sleepy, not Sleeping. ;)

Ah thanks for the clarification. I'll shut up now and go back into my hole.

sorry never saw your post laser, not really what I'm looking for in wheels. thanks for the offer though.

Anyways just bringing this post back up as I'm actively really looking now for a decent set of wheels. Still looking on a budget so not going to go all baller on anything, just want the car to look a bit nicer and mine have some nasty vibrations at the top end of the track I noticed.
