    I am starting to look into getting rims for my car and trying to find some nice ones.

    Here is my car as it sits.


    I am trying to decide if I want to keep the stock 16" size like what is on there now, or go up to 18's. Money is kind of tight so I cant do a lot. I also just got brand new Bridgestone Turenza Serenity tires. So at this point, I am leaning toward the 16's but idk haha.

    I am thinking black with a machined aluminum lip or the reverse.... Any leads or thoughts?

    These are some that I kinda like.

    the XXR 518's are my favorite out of the group.

    If money is tight, it's better to just hang on to it, then get rims, and have to pay bills or something or other.

    But even tho you do have new tires, you wont be happy if you get different 16's, they'll just look too small.

    Keep the 16's as the winter set, or for if you go to a track, and throw them on (lighter, maor rubbers)

    Or even sell them. The sky is the limit!

    Those were just some sets that caught my eye. Nothing will be set in stone.

    First off, your current rims are fine, I think they look pretty good.

    Second, of the 4 picks of new rims you have listed, the last by far is the best, its not even close.

    You arent the first person to say the stock rims look fine. Crazy! I dont mind them either really... maybe its the color of the car, bc some GP's I dont like with those stock rims.
