Not that bad of a price but I believe you'll be happier with 18's or the best would be 19's. Just depends on what your wallet says though.

welcome. I believe you can get a better wheel/tire package at a townfairtire or wheel shop locally. Where are you from? You might also want to consider getting strong rims if you have bad roads or a lot of potholes as well as construction in your area. Either way lets see some pics of your solara

you don't want 18's or 19's for performance. It depends on what he's looking for.

i like the way they look, but im not to sure of the brand and i dont think they'll look good in 17" due to all the spokes.. keep looking you might be able to find a better deal. check out http://www.discounttire.com/dtcs/home.do or www.wheelsnext.com and post some pix of your car we would all love to see it!

That's very true so lightweight 16's or 17's for performance or 18's and 19's for looks. If you've got the big bucks be the first and put 20's on the first gen! You'd have to modify the fender wells a lot and probably more than I can even think of.

I can vouch for these guys. They bent over backward for me to make things right when there was a problem. Paid for return shipping both ways and gave me no grief at all. Unbelievable service. Plus they do road force balancing using Hunter GSP9700 equipment, which most do not do.

Rims - Good deal?
