steelies

steelies

i'm gettin new all-season tires 205/50/15s.

i wanna just put steelies on them. how much they do cost and are they heavier than 15lbs each?

they might cost like 20 or 30 bucks... and would be hella light..

would an auto repair shop normally have steelies and be able to put em on the tire for me? im trying to just do that instead of having to order it online and pay for the shipping.

I think 15" steel is around 16-18lbs, 14" is around 14-15lbs.

They would more than likely have to order them for you... but they could put them on...

Just talked to tire rack, they're 18.4 lbs....but they're outta stock for 15"s.....they'll have them by NEXT winter...urgh.

anyway, i think by next winter i'd rather save up for lightweight wheels (SSR's are on my wish list).

Discount Tire. I know that the one by me has tons and tons of steelies. They also do price matching with Tirerack or any online/retail store price so do your homework

Steelies aren't light. If a 15" steelie was 14-15 lbs. it would be in the same weight category as many of the cheaper lightweight aftermarket rims.

18.4 sounds about right. I weighed mine when I had them and my 14" ones were 19 lbs.

Junkyard perhaps? steelies do the job , but knowing me i'd damage them pretty quickly, 18.5 it heavy but them again the current weight of the ones i have right now are only 20 lbs , you know you can get some rims off of a Saturn 4-lug right? they will fit with no problems and i think a Civic but i can't be too sure.

yeah steelies are actually lighter than what i have at 22lbs each. lmao...damn mille miglia's...

I hope to see a picture of your car with some clean steelies on..

Civic lug pattern and offset. I got my Rota wheels from a guy with an EK civic.

Yea but dont you got 17s? You can get 15s in much lighter weight than 17s.

yeah i'm going from 17s to 15s... nothing should get in the way right?

figured that out.

intresting VB ur 17 's weigh more than my 18's and not much more considering how thin my tires are.

yeah mille miglia wheels are pretty friggin heavy.

the old motegi's i had were HEAVY as all hell! weighing in close to 30 LBS!

Steelies rock. Heavy and ugly but very durable.

i'll take my chances, unless it gets rainy then i switch t steelies simply beacuse its a bitch to remove the scum off the rims from all the rain.

Civic steelies should fit.

There should be a TON of wrecked corollas / civics around. Just call your local junkyard.

Civics use 15s?

anyone here running 195 or 205/55/15s?

195/55R15 is the current size setup he is using on his 01 rolla LE, he says the only bad thing is that the car is way substantially lower than he expected. and it already low enough.
