How much did they offer them for? I would pass on them since they are 16s. If he gives em away for like 150 or something real cheap maybe.

he wants 300 for them. he has the tires as well in good condition. i just dont like the idea that theyre 16's. i want 17's or 18's but theyre kinda pricy. im gonna think about it some more. thanks for your inputs guys.

Well for 300 bucks it would be nice to have them just for a back up. To good of a deal to pass up....post a pic though so we can really be honest.

Hey! Whats wrong with stock 15's? j/k My alero has 15's and I like them, but then the other cars I have ever owned had 14's that were steelies. Someday, I'll get some 18's put on her.
To the op, those are nice rims, but if your not going to be happy with the 16's since yours came stock with 16's I would pass on them.
