You know if you take off your breakes you'll probably save another 80 lbs

Johnold · 03-31-2007, 10:02 PM

whats up man!? listen, i have an 07 Si NHBP and i was wondering if these rims here

would "go" with the car well. tell me what you think.

MOTEGI: Traklite 2.0

irichard · 03-31-2007, 10:44 PM

^ i was thinking of that ...but don't know if it looks good on a TW sedan??? very light weight

Johnold · 03-31-2007, 10:54 PM

I think they're pretty nice. and yeah, they are about 14lbs each or so. i like them alot.

Johnold · 03-31-2007, 10:58 PM

i also wanted to know if putting aftermarket wheels on a new car (civic Si) would VOID any type of warranty's? i wanna get 17" wheels with the same profile sized tire. 215-45-17 so i won't feel much difference. i like the size of the tire and wheel size that the Si's come with OEM.

***GETxERxDONE*** · 03-31-2007, 11:03 PM

it shouldnt but u never know what your dealer will say so call them. but i think the oem tire size is 225-45

i think they are 17x8 factory is 17x7

Johnold · 04-01-2007, 01:41 AM

yeah i believe those Traklite's are 17X8. is that bad?. do they checkout as "fine"?. i forgot the mesurments on the spaces and specs.

the OEM tire size for the Si is 215-45-17.

Johnold · 04-01-2007, 01:43 AM

im not sure....maybe a little wider...but it should fit...i don't plan to drop soon, so it will not be an issue to me

vvillaluna · 04-01-2007, 12:25 PM

can anyone post a GG car with bronze/gold rims. Im on the fence with bronze with polished lip VS black with a polished lip... i went through about 25 pages and gave up..

dannyar · 04-01-2007, 12:56 PM

Johnold · 04-01-2007, 02:17 PM

thats not bad looking dannyar. OH, and i don't plan on dropping my car either anytime soon even with new aftermarket wheels. i like the OEM struts, springs, and shocks on the Si's are pretty damn good already

Dannyar, is your car dropped? doesn't look like too much but if it isn't at all then that just proves how nice an Si looks with just wheels put on with it's OEM suspension.
