be wary of the ebay rims

get player or homeboyz.

whichever you get be prepared to give them a LOT of attention/cleaning/oiling in the winter to make them last in UK conditions.
If you want 13's/14's you can take a gamble on "ebay specials" but over 16's they wont last long.
I dont know what make bling sell but at leat you have a chance of some comeback if things go wrong.

Yea, I used to have a set of 15" chrome Crager wires, I kept on top of them cleaning and oiling and it was sweet. Then I bed ridden for 6 weeks through the winter, when I saw my car I thought $hit somebody changed my chrome rims for ones with gold spokes ! The rust chewed the spokes up bad. I tried a re-con job on one, but nothing beats fresh chrome.
