should i trade...

should i trade my stock wheel(both tire and wheel covers) plus $250 for some used 16" Konig Monsoon(with tires)? i don't know how much tread, what company the tires are. nor if the rims are in good shape(i'm going to go look at it soon).

i'm looking to sell my civic in the future so how much would it cost to get new stock wheel cover and "rims"(that black thing that holds the tire... do they even sell these?? if so where?)

If you are gonna sell your car man in the near future and want to keep it stock, wouldn't it make more sense to keep your stock stuff?

hmmm monsoons are alright. look a lot like a certain wheel from Volk Racing. A friend of mine has em on his lude (monsoons, not volks).

250 isn't a bad price, but it all depends on the condition and if you want to sell im with your car or not. Monsoons aren't obnoxious rims or anything, most people would probably appreciate them, even older people. And in 16 they aren't exactly impracticle either. But then again, I'm not your average car buyer so don't take my word on that.

i'm not selling it in the near future, probably in like 3 years... $250 is a pretty good price but ya it's the fact that i have to give him my stock wheels, meaning when i sell the car i would have to give in the rims as well...(which i don't want to do) so ya thats why i'm wondering how much it would cost to get new stock wheels.

imma probably get 17" or maybe even 18" focal f10's within the next year so maybe i'll just give in the konig rims... do you know if having non oem wheels lower the trade in value of the car? just cause the wheels cost more doesn't always mean honda's going to pay more you know...
