Should I keep this?
Hello folks.

Should I keep these rims I have currently on my EG? It's a good couple of years old, came from previously my brothers civic and has been eaten away (rust and some nasty stuff on it)...

Should I keep it or go with new wheels? I kinda like it because it makes my car look like a rally car...lol...

I was thinking if I keep it, then I can go ahead and restore the rims by sanding them down and doing some bondo, painting and whatnot.

What do you guys think?

I'm asking because I need new tires later on so wondering if I should buy new tires only or the new rim and tire set.

Thanks.

Peace out.

True true, but when I ride around, I don;t want to be laughed at for having *** old rims that look bad for the EG :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

I think they don't look too bad but I think the rims are making the tires kinda lose pressure sometimes so I think it could be kinda worn out...

The no's outweigh the yes, so maybe i'll get new ones later on...

Edit: Good idea to the guy who said keep them as winter rims.
