okay so i need new tires for summer, I'm running 195-65 continental extremewintercontact and there were great for winter, but i don't want to destroy them. I've been looking for rims so i can have two sets. I've thought about 7gen gts and scion tc oem rims but i can't find gts rims in my area and all the scion rims i find are $200 with bad tires on them, so i would need to replace the tires on top of buying the rims. on tire rack they have sparco asstto gara 16" for a $396 a set. http://www.tirerack.com/wheels/WheelCloseU...&sort=Price

I'm thinking of going with the sparco's but I'm not sure what tire to get with that. i would like to keep it under $800 including shipping so i was looking ay hankook ventus v2 conpect2 or Sumitomo htr z II

its about $780 all together for either tire mounting and shipped to my door on the sparco's is that a good deal for rims and tires?

any help would be much appreciated!

thanks guys! discount tire direct looks like its a better deal for tires. Ive thought more about rims and for now im going to pick up some steel ones from the scrap yard and save my self some money haha. Im still deciding on tires though, the cooper cs5's look like a good choice. but the hankooks are cheaper...

You get what you pay for just remember that. I wish I would've gotten the cs5s. Comes with longer tread life and its one hell of a tire.
