Which wheels? 15's or 16's Pros / Cons of each?LX98Civic 09-11-2002, 02:18 PM I am looking to get some new wheels sometime in the near future. What I know the wheel must have: --Weigh less than the OEM steelies --Gunmetal (dark silver) --Less than $900 for the wheels / tires --Ride quality closer to stock than the 205/40/17 tires So far I am leaning towards this style wheel. Since I have a lot of black on the car (4 door 98 Civic) I think the gunmetal would look better rather than the bronze in the picture below. http://www.g-forceperformanceandsound.com/wheels/konig/heliumgrass2.jpg The ride difference between my OEM 14's and the 17's I had on is like night and day. With the 17's I could feel all the bumps and cracks in the roads where the OEM is more smoother with the thicker rubber. Another thing is keeping my ride pretty low. I actually have it up about 1/4" because the 42+ offset on the Tenzo's (17's) would scrape pretty bad on dips and stuff. Would a 44+ or 45+ offset work better? I would like to get 205 width tires if I can keep it low and avoid the scrapping. So, which wheel size 15's or 16's? Pros / Cons? Which is better for a daily driver? Pics of each size wheels mounted are welcome too. Thanks! vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
