    Talking Spark wheels

    Hey,
    I've gotten a quote for 4 new sparks + traded in wheels for $1350. This price includes me trading in my 17 vz ss wheels with zero rubber .

    OSAKA RACING WHEEL SPARKS

    Is this a good deal??

    he told me that for 1350 he would give me the second hand ones and showed me the rubber, he said it was a good brand..
    then for 1400 i could get new tyres but not a so good brand

    so how does it sound?

    Sounds reasonable for 19"s
    Id go the second hand tyres if theyve got a decent %age of tread left on them

    Still depends on the brand of tyres seems a bit cheap 4 19s so id b guessin a cheapish brand tyre? most wheel n tyre packages r like that 2 make the deal look more appealing yet some ppl 4get 2 worry bout the tread.

    How much 4 the rims alone? id buy the rims alone and put ur own set of decent tyres on.
