**Nomar06** · 02-13-2007, 06:36 PM

not bad

PoLiShPrInCe · 02-13-2007, 06:41 PM

i dont like it... the rims look a bit small for the car... maybe a drop will help but i like more rim, less tire

***ILL FG2*** · 02-13-2007, 06:43 PM

they look like 14's on there.

SiRyan · 02-13-2007, 06:44 PM

I understand why you say that-but I didn't want to go with 17's cuz I like a smoother ride--As for a drop, I'm scraping the front now getting in and out of my driveway..another reason 17's might be a problem--

17's won't affect your ride height, provided they're "plus sized" appropriately.
Also, I use my 18's in the summer, and the ride is not nearly as bad as you might imagine... a bit harder, but not enough to worry about.

Juve_2006 · 02-13-2007, 07:51 PM

ya the rims are nice but look very small on the car, i think it needs to be dropped

***rippars*** · 02-13-2007, 07:53 PM

tint %?

RallyeRedB · 02-13-2007, 07:55 PM

i hate si impersonators. but whatever floats your boat.

Zesti1 · 02-13-2007, 08:02 PM

Not a fan personally of the decal or the rims....

***GeezerSi*** · 02-13-2007, 08:08 PM

Looks good, but a drop will look even better (sexy). Congratulations.

spocheld · 02-13-2007, 08:22 PM

I like the rims they go really good with GG, they are just a little small. The good old proverb of "Go big or go home" 17's or 18's would kill on your ride as long as you have a 40 series tire you don't sacrifice any ride quality.

And I kinda like the decals, it's not like it says DOHC, you're not artificially badging or anything.

bernies07civic · 02-13-2007, 08:44 PM

so did you keep the 16" stock rubbers and buy rims to fit them. This is what I am thinking bout doing for a set of winters. Those are 16" right? I personally like the way you're set up looks but everyone is right a drop would help.
