  • WS6 rims?

    I was wondering if buying WS6 rims and tires with 500 miles on them for $900 would be worth the performance when my 15 inch tires with progressive rims ride just fine?

    Also i have seen this asked before but what is the best type of oil to use since i need an oil change. There is already 5w30 in it?

    Are you sure you dont have 16's? I'm not sure what size tire ws6's have but a lower profile/wider tire will give better handling in turns, but the ride quality is affected since there is less tire to blanket the bumps.

    I would go by the manual for witch oil to use, 5w-30 is recomended in average climates, in hot weather or summer 10-30 offers a little better protection, cause oil thins as it heats up. If its cold in your area right now just stick with 5w-30, it protects better during cold starts.

          If the tires are ZR's and in good shape then $900 is a good price. The wheels by themselves on ebay go for that. If you decide not to buy them, let me know, I will.
