Monday, November 19, 2012 5:12 PM
i found these rims at a barn sale for 40 bucks. the gentleman told me they were about 15-20 years old but were never installed on a vehicle. all four of them were in there originall box.they are 13 inch rims and say 13x5.5 on the inside. they fit on my skyhawk but i dont know if i can find tires to fit. i would like to put wider tires on my hawk for better handling. right now they have p17580R13s. will i be able to use these and can i find a wider tire for my car? any help would be greatly appeciated. thanks

What's the width of your current wheels?

Cool find and score John!!

The best you can do these days, is 185/70/13.

Neat score but good luck finding 13 inch tires for a reasonable price. Heck even some 14 inch sizes are pretty expensive these days like the ones my dad's Saturn take, cheapest ones he could find locally were $75/tire and that didn't include installation.

Try Craigs List in your area. I scored a set of 185/70/13's earlier this year for $100.

Have these Mastercraft Avenger Gt's in 195 70 13. They were on the car when I got it in 2011 and were purchased in the fall of 2010 by previous owner. The Blue Cav has original factory style white lines in 195 70 13's also (Dean Quasar is the brand).
