Yeah, that rust protection thing wont work like it should -- electrodes on boats, or inside water tanks work (but they get consumed), and I guess that's where the idea may have come from?

I bought 4 steel rims and Goodyear Nordics at Canadian tire for my fit -- need them here in Montreal -- and the price was right, especially since they kicked back about $50.00 in CT coupons with a scratch and save card.

I have yet to intall them, so I hope the rims will be good (I have the 14" ones), but they did tell me that if I wanted OEM Rims, they had them too -- but @ $57.00 each rather than the $45.00 for the universal ones. That was a no-brainer for me -- why pay more for steel rims than one needs to.

In any event, tires and rims came to $581.00 with taxes included, and then the coupon payback -- as usual, I'lll have to spend some more at CT -- but don't we all?

Later,
Bill
