    What wheels should I keep?

    I have too many sets of wheels.

    1. EGT fanblades with tires that are too big
    2. EGT 7 spokes (I still need one more, someone stole one of them)
    3. Miata 15" wheels with autocross tires
    4. Random 16x7's with slicks that are mostly worn out
    5. Snow steelies with snow tires

    I'm thinking about getting rid of the miata wheels since they'd be the easiest to sell and I can get the most money from them. They are, however, the lightest wheels.

      the egt ones are all 15x5.5 15-15.5# the miata ones are 15x6 13# and the other ones are 16x7 and i'm guessing 18#

            those 16s look like some konigs i used to have. . . forgot the name. they werent too bad on weight, and i like the way they look. they'd make good daily driver wheels.

              I am just not a big fan of how they look in that particular pic and they are the heaviest but may get you back the most money. I actually like the ride better on 15s compared to 16s. I'd like to run a 15 inch version of my 16s. Tires area also cheaper

                    Keep the Miata wheels, the 7 spokes, and use the fan blades for the snow tires.

                      i definitely wouldn't get rid of the miata wheels. keep the fan blades and egt 7 spoke rims. what happen to those OG mesh wheels you had at one point?

                          Ride around town on the 16s(looks). Keep the miata wheels for autox and the fanblades for snow.


                          I'd be interested in 1 of the 7 spokers. This way I can have a full size spare.

                            Interesting feedback

                            Turpro name your price on one of the 7 spokes and it's yours. They aren't in perfect shape but if you're painting them like I was going to, it should be fine.

                              i agree with turpro completely.

                              but i don't need a 7 spoke rim. find me a gsr fat five and i will be your friend!
