My wife mentioned wants she wanted some nice wheels. When I brought it up earlier, she got all adult-like: “No,” she said with a hint of resignation. “That’s probably not a good use of money... It’s not something I need.” Oh okay, honey. NO. I’m buying her new wheels next year and she doesn’t need to know yet. !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

Things to note : ours has the grey “sport” skirt. She also prefers black for wheels, and is not a fan of chrome at all.

Those BBS SR look very Pontiac, I like the OEM-like look.

I wish I could look at wheels on my car on TireRack :(

“no high res photos of your vehicle available”

That’s odd, don’t you have a modern Mini as a vehicle?

I do. Neither the R50 or R53 has a photo on TireRack.

It’s a sign: you are not allowed to have nice things.

Also don’t Google “stances Pontiac Vibe”

Might not want to do that without mrs. zoidbergs approval... but you know winter roads get beat up and it’s really easy to bend a wheel, wink, wink, nudge, nudge... then it’s a better value to just buy an aftermarket set than replace one OEM wheel. Win- win

How did you get that to pop up? I never get anything.

I go to TireRack and pick my car? Haha. 2005 MCS comes up every time for me!

Well that’s why. Mines an 04 and the system isn’t smart enough to use the photo of the 05.

Haha, I was gonna suggest trying a different year since they all have the same profile

I guess I’m not. I am trying to replace a perfectly good set of OEM 15s. They are ugly though.

Those Sparco Terras look so darn good. I’d plastidip them black though

Oddly, mama was wanting “pretty wheels” for the winter yesterday....

I just got the trofeo 5s for my WRX. They look awesome. Just wish I had got them in black instead of bronze. Holy brake dust Batman.
