    di ko alam kung sa more than looks ipopost o dito.
    ganito ang issue.

    my car is now riding on stock 2001 185/60/14 rims ng Lancer (6 spokes). The mags has scratches and the centercap is really loose. I was trying to look for a center cap na masikip, but i cannot find anything.

    yesterday, i was just driving around, happened to stop by at some second hand mags/tire store na malapit sa amin. i inquired about one mags that fancied my eye. its a 6 spoke din, but on 195/55/15. they said, they will take in my old mags, and i will just add 7.5k.

    another option will be to just have the rims repaired/repainted for 650 each (P 2,600.00). although it would solve the scratches on my rims, it will not lessen the gap between the tire/fender.


    questions:

    a) i don't want my car to be lowered (suspension wise, i like the smooth stock ride) but i would want to have the fender-wheel gap lowered. will a 195/60/15 be ok?
    b) if ever i will trade my rims to that new one, will it be worth it? I am planning to sell my car na siguro (pero not sure pa, but my wife has been nagging me to have it sold na by next year), so that means, i will only have to use the car for around one year na lang.

    tempting offer kasi yung rims.

    thanks for your insights.
