I've decided (I think) to get some new wheels this summer. I need new tires anyway, and have one bent rim. I really like a lot of the 9-5 wheels, but obviously they have a 5 bolt pattern and the 9000 has 4.
I remember at least one site sponsor used to sell adapters to remedy this...is that a dangerous solution?
If I should avoid that, where is a good place to look for wheels? I have 15 inch now and am thinking about going with 17's or 16's.
Thanks for any advice!!
