Default Any cheap wheels that will fit the V??

Looking for something cheap that will fit the V. I realize there is not a large selection but i was hoping maybe the 6 lug chevy truck wheels would fit it or something. Doesnt have to be driven, i just want to be able to roll it around if i need to while im waiting for my black V wheels to be recoated due to some minor rash and such.

Looking for a set as cheap as possible with maypop tires... lol

LMK!

I think the srx wheels fit...not the stock ones due to brake clearance though.....how long does it take to get wheels painted?

Lol! Wont take too long im sure but i dont really have a good place to leave the car where i wont need to be able to move it around. Was hoping a cheap set of chevy 6-lug truck stockies might work if i took the brakes off. Its not like the brakes are hard to reinstall anyway.

SRX wheels work with a machined spacer.. Just leave it on blocks.. no way your goning to find a cost effective solution... if you were local i would let you rent my spare set for some $$

990 is stupid cheap for a set of rims that fit our car. just keep that in mind. you'd be lucky to find a nice wheel at that cost per rim. cheapest i've seen are the adv.1 cast wheel line at around 500 bucks a rim.

Rota Torques - stock dimensions, $900 shipped. Soon to come 19" Linea Corse Venetos, $1300 shipped. Both significantly more affordable than the $500/wheel ADV.1s, but nowhere near as affordable as a set of jackstands .
