Best Rims For Price On Gen 2????

Hey i was wondering guys im lookin for a cheap replacement for my gen 2 camry rims... i wanna get rid of the cheapy steelies.... i have a guy gonna let me know next weekend on it but he has a friend w/ 17" stock scion tc rims w/ tires... but if i dont get an oppurturnity to get them.. would my best option is to search for some at a junkyard and keep the same tire size? because i have a very small budget and no patience to save im wondering what the best would be to do for now? Thanks in advance!!!

i got some chips on the center when i was trying to take the rims off... but i can touch them up with my spray gun =}

personaly i think 17 look too ricer!! so i went ahead and put these 16".. fit perfectly and the off set is okay.. no vibration or anything on my camry

im also thinking of painting the small lip the same color as my car to give it that custom look..

i got these rims with 80% tires used for about $200 so i thought it couldnt go wrong

Any problems with vibrations, or are you using spacers/adapters?

nope!! direct bolt on.. fits perfect!! and i didnt need ant spacers.. but i might get some just to make the off set a little more out, depending if i flair out my rear wheel fenders..

im also lookign for some lowprofile tires, right now it sits on 215/55 im looking for some 205/40

To be completely honest... i wonder how cheap i can get a set of those.... i wonder if a junk yard had a good deal on em? idk where i could find em... but i still wouldnt mind havin the 17" scion tc rims...





oh btw how the hell do u calibrate your speedometer? it drives me nuts when they are off....
