Need tips for wheels and tires.

Hi Everyone,

I have a stock 02 civic sedan. It has the ugly hubcaps with steel wheels. i want to upgrade to actual wheels. Not looking for anything too flashy. But I have no idea where to start. Where can i go to buy new wheels and tires without getting robbed? What size should I go with? I have never bought wheels before and looking for new beginners advice.

Any help would be great. Thanks.

Re: Need tips for wheels and tires.

Since you just have hubcaps, look on car-part.com and search your state to find junk yards with the rims (look under the drop-down wheel without image). It will list price and condition. However, that's only if you want the normal civic 15 inch alloy wheels. They do come in like 4 different styles tho...
