OH, i don't plan on changing tire size either cause i happen to personally LOVE the tire size 215-45-17. it's PERFECT!. not too thin and not too fat. just enought performance and comfort for a tire size like that but not too thick and goofy looking.

17x7.5" Buddy Club P1 Racing II Plus in gunmetal with the OEM summer performance tires. Lug nuts are Buddy Club Racing Spec lug nuts. The whole box of them weighed about as much as a couple of the OEM lug nuts that come on the car. They freakin' rock.

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.
No drop at all, and i dont plan on it either. not worth sacrificing the general feel of the ride and put stress on my shocks and risk scraping for an inch drop which really doesnt make the car look completley different. Ultimatly i love how it looks as is.

Offset is 35mm. OEM is 45mm. The wheels sit pretty much flush with the rest of the body, now, which is exactly what I was going for.

Ryan, I'm really digging the P1s and the tuner lug nuts! How much does each wheel weight?

They are P2's. The wheels weigh maybe 1lbs less than stock but nothing incredible. The lug nuts, on the other hand, weigh a lot less. I'd imagine it made a .0001 difference on the performance of the car, so I just say it's JDM.

06blaksi,

Very nice custom, it looks clean, mean and aggressive.

Anyways, here's my setup. 18" RH Evo CP10 225/40/18. Sorry can't locate my battery charger at the moment, but this was my chop mockup of the rims on my car.
