Well my car is almost back to road worthy condition, and I finally got her running again. Just need to finish a few things with the body and some brake work. So Now I am in need of some new wheels. I have wide fenders so I am in need of some WIDE wheels. either 13" 14" or 15". What do you guys have? I need to get them out a good 2-3" from the stock width, and would prefer to not use spacers. thanks fot the help.

*also a side note...I will be looking to drop an si head on my dx soon, so if anyone has one of those as well let me know.

They are steel, Diamond Racing wheels (they don't really recommend them for the street...) here are pics:





Those are pics from just after I got the tires mounted, and also shows how far they stick out, even with flares...no spacers on there either...here is an action shot:



The wheels I would sell alone for $300 plus shipping (likely around $60-70), with tires the shipping would be much higher....

Is that in CAD? That seems a little high if it is in USD. I may be interested in them.

Thanks guys, but I need these for street use. So I think I may go with a 14x8 so I am not shifting every 2 seconds. Can some one send me in the right direction though for finding some decent ones. And just wondering...but why are 13x9's not recommended for street??

I am interested in the si head...How many miles on it, is it in need of a "refreshening"- new internals, has it been milled down yet. Just wondering before I throw out an offer. Thanks

Good luck finding a street wheel over 6 inches wide. There are guys that would run over their own grandmothers for 14x8 rims...I believe the issue is that if you hit potholes and junk on the street you could damage the rim. I've also heard of the steel rims bending, but that could just be an urban myth.
