Thumbs up

Since it seems like more than 50% of people here have replaced their wheels, I was wondering what everybody did with their stock set? Did you sell them or do you keep them around? Where do all these wheels go?

Make a stack, then put a plywood board on it. Et viola! Instant coffee table!

A lot members have sold their stock 17's, or use them for winter.

My stock 16" steelies (ugh) are back on my car right now for the winter. I hate them with a passion, but my nice wheels/tires are no good in the snow.

I dunno about you guys, but when you renew your road tax and all, don't you need the OEM wheels to be fitted back? I rather keep my stocks incase of emergencies or my aftermarket rims crack (touch wood)
