OK so here's how it is...

ok guys, i know i have asked this before but i still havent decided. I need new tires soon and i hate my wheels. i cant decide wether i should get the new wheels with my new tires which would hurt my financial status (being a high school kid) fairly good, or if i should just get some wheels paint and keep these until i scrounge up some more money. tell me what you would do in my situation and what you think about painting my wheels. thanks guys

the wheels i want...

Yeh... I opted against the 16".... I think it was a compatability issue with one of my trim packages... don't really remember but at the time the 15" was the better/only option.
