tirerack.com can dial you in to choices by your make/model and year. From there you can look at the selections and then try to source locally knowing an already good price. Or you can just buy from tirerack.

Post #2 assumed you are looking for used wheels; other posts point to sources for new wheels. The original post was not specific. What is wanted?

Or you could point and click on Phantasm's website, go to the showroom to see them when they arrive, and have Phantasm mount, balance, and install the wheels. Not only would you be supporting a local business but if you don't like the wheels you can return them without shipping costs.

Sure, if the OP wanted to go in without knowing pricing options, that is one way to do it.

I am looking to get the original size rim, 15", back on the car. Right now there are 14" rims on it. I don't really care if the rims are new or used as long as they are in good shape. Looking to do this at the most reasonable cost possible. Hope to find a wheel that looks as close to OE as possible as well. Checked the dealer and they want over $1,600 for a set of 4 ...... that's not gonna happen.

Steel? Alloy? Make, model, year of car?
Did you put a post on the Craig's List "Wanted" section?
