Anybody out there have some factory rims they want to unload?

My car won't accept aftermarket rims. I've tried two sets and they both make the car wobble all over the place and make the steering wheel jerk around. The stock wheels don't do that. Three different tire shops all say my rims aren't centering up on the hub, and we've tried three different sets of hub centric rings to remedy the problem with no luck.

I'd put my stockers back on but they're all scratched up. The person that had the car before me was a chick, and they always mess their tires up scrubbing curbs.

I'd prefer the newer style that I've seen on the 7th generation Celicas, the ones with the really pointy, almost nonexistant five star spokes, but I guess I'd be interested in the 6th gen 5 stars too.

Please, reply here if you want, but PLEASE send me an email too.

My email is DoothaBartman@netscape.net

Peace.

Well, not to sound rude, but since they're just stock, and I've already got a set that work (I'm only trying to get ones that aren't so damn scratched up) I wouldn't want to spend more than a hundred. Shipping on wheels is a killer, so the price would have to stay low.

I want to get in touch with someone at Toyota who really knows what they're talking about and find out what size hub the sixth gens have. All the tire shops find nothing wrong mechanicly with my car, they point to the rims not centering up on the hubs. Even though we've tried three sets of hub centric rings, they still say it's the wheel not centering up on the hub. If the 6th gen and 7th gen have the same hub, I'd like to try to wait for the nicer 7th gen, but if you guys don't mind the low price, I'm interested in buying.

BlkGT, if the picture at the bottom of your post has your factory rims, those are the ones I have, and those are the ones I'd want. Those are the 6th gen factory rims I think.
